Review: A watch that oozes charm & elegance - The Company - Orient is a respected maker of automatic watches since the 50's & they use in-house mechanics, so there's no outsourcing of dodgy components. There is a typical & reassuring Japanese approach to quality control, materials, finish & attention to detail; which is simply superb & what you would expect from a watch costing over 3 times the price. Orient are part of the Epson group. Epson also own Seiko. Interestingly these two watch companies seem to go their own way in their approach to aesthetics, consequently Orient has a uniqueness to their watches that chimes! Baby Love - This watch is part of the Bambino range which is given much love by watch aficionados. Bambinos have a timeless charm & you'll find no brash finishes or here today, gone tomorrow fashion disasters. This stainless steel watch has a brushed case with chrome finish to the upper surfaces & nicely breaks up what would otherwise be a monoblock appearance. The crown is onion shaped, larger than usual & consequently easier to turn, though it is not screwed down for improved water resistance. When adjusting the date & time you'll appreciate the smooth rotation, there are no wobbly bits or rough actions here. All Bambinos have a beautiful domed glass which harks back to yesteryear & reinforces this timeless appeal. The dial is not white as sometimes stated, I find it to be off-white & slightly pearlescent, enhanced by the domed glass that lets light in from the very edges of the dial. The printing on the dial is very crisp with a classic font, the numerals however are a cut above being applied to the dial in rose gold, the hands are also rose gold. The rose gold logo with a red insert is also applied & all of this adds a touch of elegance to the dial. This is a 2nd generation Bambino, which has slight improvements such as a hackable second hand (which stops when the crown is pulled out so you can set the watch to the exact second). The automatic function can be augmented by a manual wind which is silky smooth & a tactile delight. The strap which has had some criticism is stiff out of the box, 10 minutes of chiropractice & it became more flexible & since then has loosened up further. I had ordered an aftermarket strap at the same time as the watch purchase, I'm not sure I'll be using it though; the supplied strap with glossy dark brown alligator style leather & light brown contrasting stitching just looks great on this watch. You may have got the impression that I love this watch & you'd be right, watches are often bought on an emotional level & many folk will connect with this charming timepiece. The photographs really do not do justice to this watch. Cons - There are however a few things you should know. 1. The water resistance is not great, meaning no showering or swimming with this watch, in fact I wouldn't even risk immersing this watch while washing my hands. 2. This watch is a Version 2 & still has the unusual 21mm lug (strap) width, meaning aftermarket straps will be more challenging to find, but they are out there. I have seen YouTubers sanding a fraction off the edges of a favoured 22mm strap to get them to fit into the lugs. A softer leather 22mm may even squeeze in unaltered. Thankfully Orient do listen to their customers & Version 4 Bambinos now come with 22mm lugs. 3. The lack of a lume, the 'glowy bits' in the dark, might be an issue for those with strong nocturnal habits. Despite all of the aforementioned, I'm willing to overlook these foibles. All for the love of a good watch! Accuracy- Mechanical watches simply do not have the accuracy of quartz watches, expect to see a drift of a few seconds each day, so you will be adjusting these 'Springers' once a week. You could use your phone's network to keep this watch in good time. With a hacking second hand this is a breeze & part of the charm of an old fashioned mechanical watch. I checked the accuracy against a radio controlled timepiece & found that I had time travelled into the future 6 seconds over 24 hours. That's well within the specified +25/-15 seconds per day. To collect or not to collect - I ditched my cheap watches & had planned to start a collection of three quality watches, to fill the 3 empty compartments in the drawer of my gentleman's night stand. I had envisaged a dress watch, a diver & a pilot watch. On receiving this beauty, my intended dress watch I'm thinking maybe I won't bother with the other 2. This watch is so beautiful it has become my one & only, an everyday wearer. I am primarily an urban desk jockey, I don't do deep sea diving, race cars, pilot airplanes, bullfight or spend days in the wilderness looking for Bigfoot. So I don't really have the need for any other watches. Value - There are different ways to value a watch, such as price v performance, price v visual appeal or on brand name alone. In my opinion & that's all it is, my opinion, you may take it or leave it; this watch has a lovely build quality aesthetic & charm. Charm, now there's an old fashioned word I've used several times in this review. The dictionary definition of charm - 'the power or quality of delighting, attracting, or fascinating others' sums up this watch quite nicely! The price of this watch varies considerably, a typical price is around £150, sometimes a little bit more, sometimes a little bit less. I got this for just under £100 (desertcart), an absolute bargain! Such is the quality of this watch, if looked after & with an occasional service it will probably outlast me & become a treasured heirloom, patina & all! I thought long & hard before I pulled the trigger on this watch. After all this was intended to be the first of my lifetime trilogy collection. Alternatives - Also under serious consideration was the German made Zeppelin watches, at around £200 they too have a remarkable elegance & charm about them. You may wish to check them out.
Review: Best Value for Money Watch Right Now - Great value for money watch with accurate movement. Love the design and size of the watch. I’d personally exchange the strap that comes with it, but that’s my only gripe. Must have watch in any collection.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this watch hack and hand wind**
A: The answer is yes to both question.

**Q: Is this watch fully assembled in japan? i read the movement is from japan but want to know if the full assembly is in country too. thanks**
A: China

**Q: Has anyone had problems with or needed to claim under the manufacturer's warranty as I have heard Amazon is not authorized reseller?**
A: In the event of a problem I would think you should contact Amazon as I cannot find any information on an authorized Orient service centre in the UK. Having said that, the quality control seems excellent given the low price of Bambino II watches, making a manufacturing defect fairly unlikely. I suppose potential purchasers will just have to weigh up the pros and cons and decide for themselves whether or not to take the risk.

**Q: My wrist measures 23cm would this watch strap fit me?**
A: no unfortunately the maximum size is 21.5 cm

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Value for Money Watch Right Now
*by J***L on 7 February 2021*

Great value for money watch with accurate movement. Love the design and size of the watch. I’d personally exchange the strap that comes with it, but that’s my only gripe. Must have watch in any collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Attractive and reliable
*by D***L on 4 January 2024*

This is a nice little watch I've owned for several months now. The accuracy is consistently well within specifications, even after the watch suffered an accidental impact. It has proven itself remarkably reliable and robust for a dress watch. The quality control and finishing are also good. The movement is a little noisy as it can be heard cranking and winding whenever I move my arm, but this adds to the charm in my opinion. My only criticism is the strap, which is a little tacky. I suppose it's OK for the price, but I have seen better straps on cheaper watches. Being 21mm it isn't easy to find a suitably sized replacement. This really limits the strap options. Otherwise, great watch.
