Orient Neo 70's Neo 70's Solar Panda Sporty Watch, Dark Gray

Product Information

While I don’t own as many 22mm straps as I would like, there are plenty of different leather straps that pair perfectly with the Orient Neo70s Panda. Omega is well-known for its incredibly stylish and suave collection of timepieces and it has yet to disappoint in this regard. A panda dial is a dial on any watch with a white (or off-white) colored dial, and black colored sub-dials.

For example, the Orient Neo 70 utilizes slick skeleton-style hands and an extra sub-dial which is its date display. As for the Neo 70’s functionality – it uses a high-precision Seiko solar quartz movement which provides it not only with reliability but also longevity. The dial features a white base and utilizes two black sub-dials, giving it the appearance of a literal panda. Besides its stunning aesthetics, the Seiko SSC446 also has a solid build that further cements its place in this list. Great looking watch with a relatively original design, even though it is clearly inspired by many classic chronographs.Other notable features include a stationary bezel, chronograph sub-dials that track hours (24), minutes (60), and seconds (60). You’re getting a mecha-quartz movement which is a mechanical and quartz hybrid that keeps excellent time but still has the smooth second-hand sweep of a mechanical watch.

Not to mention, the accuracy and large power reserves of a solar-quartz watches are convenient to have, even if they aren’t the most exciting.It also has a ceramic bezel and sapphire glass which makes it look a little bit more modern than the Neo70s. Of course, Breitling threw in a curveball in there with its use of silver and black, instead of the usual black and white. One of my main gripes is the all-polished case which, like any polished case, show scratches easily. One such example is the Solar Chronograph (SSC446) which fuses together that trendy charm of panda dial design with a little tweak that pushes the deluxe appeal to the max.
