We have discussed this matter with upper management, and they have agreed to service your watch here in the US, under the condition that you read and accept the following terms and conditions regarding our international repair service policy: Please advise. Unless you can provide a warm introduction or reach out direct to Japan to assist, I'd rather not be directed to them as I've had no response from Japan whatsoever." It has a mineral watch crystal which is flat. This is the biggest difference of the Symphony and the Bambino, another popular dress watch by Orient.

The Orient Symphony is a highly popular model from Orient. The latest iteration of this version is the Symphony III, which refers to the third generation of the Symphony. Orient consistently makes upgrades and improvements to its models, which leads to a new version. But overall, the design tends to remain mostly the same. Because after all, why change a winning concept? Unlike Seiko, Orient seems to be more willing to fork out more money to produce different variations of a single model. This is a very good thing as not all people have the same taste =) Aside from so-called missed opportunities, the brown crocodile-grain leather strap pairs well with the dial. Orient wisely decided to endow the Symphony with 22mm lugs, so you can swap said strap out easily enough if you want to.Since this is a dressy watch, it’s not surprising that it only has a water resistance of 50m. In practice, this means that it is resistant to splashes, but should not be submerged underwater. The dauphine hands also has the same beveled design. On top of the markers at the outer edge of the dial are minute markings which is useful to help tell and set time accurately. When I reviewed the Bambino I complained that the strap wasn’t as comfortable as I’d like it to have been. Happily, the Symphony’s strap feels softer and more luxurious. It’s lightweight and comfortable to wear for hours at a time. The average turnaround time for repairs is 6-8 weeks, but it would likely be much longer at this time due to our service station being closed as a result of COVID-19, plus the transit time each way.

It is simple and minimalistic, but at the same time, the dial is beautifully finished, ensuring that you will never get bored of it. This is an exceptionally well-balanced timepiece, and this obviously goes very well together with its name, Symphony. The case is pretty standard for the price range. It feels as well built as the other Orient’s I’ve reviewed, and because of this, I suspect it will keep looking good for quite some time. If it does start to show its age, you can polish it easily enough. The case has a 22mm lug width and is available either with a stainless steel bracelet or a leather strap. The one you choose depends on your taste and preference. But obviously, the stainless steel bracelet gives it a sporty look and the leather strap option is more suitable if you want something more dressy and classy. So why call it the Symphony III? This third iteration of the classic collection has undergone a few slight design changes, starting with the hands. The signature dauphine hands have been swapped for a spear-tipped set. The chapter ring is now flat against the edge of the case and features a concentric design. Additionally, the date window has more of a rounded frame. While these are all pretty subtle changes, the watch certainly hasn’t lost its luster—it’s still as polished (literally) and elegant as ever, especially with its sunburst dial.với những đồng hồ có thiết kế đơn giản, sang trọng: (Chu vi/4) + 1 = chu vi mặt đồng hồ tối đa có thể đeo.

On top of the case, the watch has a flat mineral crystal. Since this is, after all, an affordable watch, it’s no surprise that it is not a sapphire crystal, although this would have been nice. This is also one of the key distinguishing differences between the Bambino and the Symphony, where the Bambino has a domed crystal that gives it a unique and distinct appearance. Also, the flat crystal contributes to its slim profile. I not a precious kind of person and am a fairly humble watch enthusiast and would like to think that if I needed assistance be that my independent Halios or independent d.m.h. jumping hours or Stowa Flieger or FC Moonphase or Grand Seiko SBGW231 or Rolex 14060, I would be able to find it (and be able to pay for it).April - response from Orient USA about the cost, inability to supply parts direct, time delays from Covid, and whether I resided in USA or Canada On the other hand, I would be hesitant to expose a 30-meter water-resistant watch to more than just the occasional splash. I think of it as a sort of a sibling rivalry. The Bambino is the cool and popular older brother who is all talk while the Symphony is the quiet and reserved younger brother who keeps his head down and gets the job done. There is also a date window at the right for some functionality which is very beneficial, especially for those wanting to use this watch to work. All in all, there’s really nothing to complain about the dial, and Orient has done a great job with its execution. Orient Symphony III Movement In this modern age, you're not a "victim" of additional consumption, just of your own principle. 30 years ago, folk would fix a TV that went out. Today, we just replace TVs due to cost/time benefit. The watch is relatively cheap and disposable.

As mentioned, the case for the third version of the Symphony has undergone a few subtle changes. First off, the signature dauphine hands have been swapped for a spear-tipped set. In addition, the chapter ring has been refined so that the chapter ring now sits flat against the edge of the case and has a concentric design. The previous version had beveled dauphine hands. Miễn phí thay pin trọn đời đối với đồng hồ pin (ngoại trừ các dòng đồng hồ Eco-Drive, Solar, Kinetic, Auto Quartz, đồng hồ thông minh) The Symphony is a very traditional watch. It doesn’t venture into any kind of exciting design territory, as Orient chose a very simple (and common) configuration for the dial. Thanks to the short lugs, the watch will also fit most wrists without it looking huge. The slim and short lugs also go very well with the purpose and concept of this watch.The dial is also kept clean and refined, with minimal text, only containing ”Orient”, ”Automatic”, and ”Water resist”. In this article, we are reviewing and looking closer at the Orient Symphony and what it has to offer. But to get a better understanding of what this model, has to offer, let’s look at Orient’s own words about it.
