The Orient Star Contemporary Date is a 38.5mm stainless steel automatic watch with a light blue dial, sapphire crystal and a date window. It sits in Orient's premium Star line, so it gets in-house automatic movement, sapphire glass and better finishing than the entry-level Orient divers and Bambinos. The 38.5mm case is modest by modern standards, which suits smaller wrists and dressier wear. Rivals at this level often use mineral glass or off-the-shelf movements, so the sapphire and in-house calibre are the main draws.

Owners of the Orient Star Contemporary line generally praise the finishing, the sapphire crystal and the smooth in-house movement for the money. The 38.5mm size is often called a comfortable middle ground. Some note the bracelet feels lighter than the case deserves and that accuracy varies between examples.
