The 2nd Generation Bambino Version 2 Collection


About Orient Watch
  • Has manufactured mechanical watches for over 65 years
  • All movements (the timing device) are made in Japan
  • Producing our own movements ensures the highest quality and speaks to Orient’s true passion, watchmaking

A New Generation of Bambino

The 2nd Generation Bambino Version 2 builds upon what the original started. The dial features a light, metallic sunburst that's offset by polished hour markers and dauphine hands. A date window sits at the three o'clock marker, and a track of seconds markers worked its way around the edge of the dial. Most importantly, the Bambino has been upgraded with the F6724 movement which is automatic, hand-winding, and hacking.

  • Automatic, Hand-winding, and hacking (seconds halt) movement
  • Domed Crystal
  • 50m Water Resistance

Elegant automatic watch!
The Orient Bambino in Cream Dial exudes elegance and sophistication with its automatic movement, classic Roman numerals, and date function. It's a fantastic timepiece that complements both dressy and casual attire. The only minor drawback is the crocodile strap, which some may find unattractive. However, swapping it for a sleek calf leather strap instantly elevates the watch's aesthetics. With this simple upgrade, you have a stunning watch that not only tells time but also adds a touch of timeless style to your wrist. A versatile choice for those who appreciate both fashion and function.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional value, good aesthetics, solid mechanics.
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2018
Among the best value throwback style dress watches money can buy. The creme dial, blue hands, shiny silver Roman numerals, classic style crown and case all combine to make a very unique but eye-catching package. At 40mm this is LARGE for a dress watch, but it wears smaller than you might think making is passable under the cuff of a sport coat or suit. The band is pretty cheap feeling and is overly shiny, however there ARE plenty of 21mm leather options out there to find something to match your taste. The crystal is TALL, with it arching up over the dial a very noticeable amount, but it does not look overly tacky or cheap. It is mineral, so care will need to be taken not to scratch it, but it is clear and secured nicely.

Mechanically this watch is sound. The crown functions solidly as advertised with a very satisfying and easy to use winding feature. The auto charging rotor works and produces minimal noise while doing its thing. The movement itself is respectable running +7 seconds per day for me. At under $150 this is well within the expected performance envelope.

Overall an excellent value dress watch that earns its reputation on the wrist. It is no surprise this is one of Orient's top selling models. I will be wearing this in rotation with my other dress watches for formal events and given how quickly it is growing on me, will likely rotate it in with the usual business casual office wear from time to time.

I took my first stab at Orient watches with the Bambino V2 Gen 2 and the Blue Ray II. I have not been disappointed considering how inexpensive the offerings are. A great alternative to Seiko for people looking for budget watches that offer plenty on the mechanical, construction and aesthetics side of things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Time to sell my overpriced 'showpiece watches'!
Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2017
What a pleasant surprise! I have to admit that my expectations weren't very high when I purchased this watch. But, Man, I am blown away by the visual aesthetics, the feel of quality as well as the accuracy of this Orient Bambino. It is running 4 seconds fast within a 24 hour period. That is comparable to watches I own that are 40X's the price. And, the price has dropped $16.00 since I bought it last week!
Surprises: Orient did a fantastic job with the design! The dial, alone, is absolutely stunning in that it combines the new,( Rose gold tone Roman numerals for the hour markers) and, the old,( art deco Arabic numerals printed on the outer chapter ring for the '05, 10, 15, sec., etc.) All of which are accentuated by the vintage looking domed crystal.
The case is very well thought out as well. It has a polished, tapered bezel over a brushed/satin case side that extends out to the lugs, creating a layered side profile which I find very appealing. I also like the over sized 'cupcake' crown which makes adjusting the time/date easy for man sized fingers.
The strap also surpassed my expectations. It's quite comfortable, easy to find the perfect fit and I like the color which is dark brown with a nice burgundy tint, that compliments the rose tone hands/numerals on the dial. The signed buckle is a nice touch as well.
Con's: If I had to nitpick, and I am..the date window could have been a tad larger. Other than that, I'm blown away by the amount of quality at this price point. It looks great with a dress shirt or a tee. As someone mentioned, the dial does have just a hint of mint in the right light. Well done, Orient. This is my third Orient and, it will most definitely not be my last. Time to sell the overpriced 'showpiece watches'!

5.0 out of 5 stars Maravilho. Relógio para todas as ocasiões
Reviewed in Brazil on July 19, 2022
O Orient Bambino é um clássico para todas as ocasiões, que tem boa apresentação seja com um terno ou uma bermuda.
O modelo de segunda geração, versão 2, traz um visual ao mesmo tempo moderno e vintage.
O tamanho de 40,5mm pode ser um desafio para algumas pessoas (tanto que a Oriente recentemente lançou uma versão de 38mm), porém não se torna excessivo ao ponto de ficar feio mesmo em que tem pulsos mais finos.
O calibre (movimento) possui um movimento sutil e bastante preciso, onde até mesmo o ponteiro de minutos progride entre as marcas de maneira elegante.
A pulseira surpreendeu, trazendo um toque extra de classe.

Se você quer um relógio para utilizar em ambiente profissional, mas também em ambientes social e de lazer, o Bambino oferece uma ótima opção de relógio único para todas as ocasiões.

Calidad precio :)
Al ver este hermoso reloj me dieron tantas ganas de usarlo y no quitármelo. Ya que me enamoro el diseño.
Le explicaré como veo este producto: Mantiene un buen diseño, buenos acabados, tiene correa de piel (que por ser nueva siento que esta muy dura, luego se irá acomodando), me gusta ese movimiento mecánico que trae (estupendo). Mira que al ponertelo es como sino lo tuvieras ya que no siento que pese mucho es decir, que es ligero y eso es bonito, (si ya viste las fotos te diré que se ve muy pro, no esta editada la foto son fotos reales, la tomé con cámara profesional) .
Este diseño es como retro, y eso me encantó. Si piensas comprarlo, a mi humilde opinión, te lo recomiendo.
Nota: Pará ajustar la fecha es un click en la corona, y para ajustar la hora, dos click. Posteriormente se cambia hacia abajo.

Pd: Disfrutalo, es una bonita joya. Al menos para mí me da buena sensación.
