Orient Petite Sun and Moon Quartz Watch with Sapphire Crystal #RA-KA0005A10A

Orient Petite Sun and Moon Quartz Watch with Sapphire Crystal #RA-KA0005A10A

The Sun and Moon Petite shrinks the design of the Sun and Moon Version 3 into a smaller package. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean that the dial is crowded. In fact, it maintains a symmetrical 3-6-9 sub-register layout (date, sun and moon, day, respectively) with no overlap. The Roman numeral hour markers are featured throughout, and the signature pips above each one are present as well.

Fittingly for a “petite” watch, the case measures at 34.8mm across, and is only 8.7mm thick. The thin case is due in part to the made in Japan caliber KUE00 quartz movement that powers the watch. A sapphire crystal is included to guard against scratches. This particular model also has a Mother-of-Pearl dial to add even more elegance to the watch. It comes equipped with a leather strap and a matching deployant clasp.
