The Orient caliber F7F44 is an automatic watch movement with a power reserve indicator, small seconds complication, and a skeletonized balance wheel aka “open heart window” (as Orient refers to it).

The calibre F7F44 is found in Orients M34 F7 Semi Skeleton line of watches in the brand’s M Collection, introduced on September 6, 2024.

In Orient’s own words:

“The M34 F7 Semi Skeleton is powered by the automatic (with hand winding) in-house calibre F7F44 which provides high accuracy of +15 seconds to –5 seconds per day and power reserve of 50 hours. The movement with Geneva stripes and chamfer finish, is visible through the see- through sapphire crystal case back.”
