We report on large scale finite-temperature Monte Carlo simulations of the classical $120^\circ$ or $e_g$ orbital-only model on the simple cubic lattice in three dimensions with a focus towards its critical properties. This model displays a continuous phase transition to an orbitally ordered phase. While the correlation length exponent $\nu\approx0.665$ is close to the 3D XY value, the exponent $\eta \approx 0.15$ differs substantially from O(N) values. We also introduce a discrete variant of the $e_g$ model, called $e_g$-clock model, which is found to display the same set of exponents. Further, an emergent U(1) symmetry is found at the critical point $T_c$, which persists for $T
