[Orient] 腕時計 FAC00009W0 第2世代バンビーノver. 2個 TAC00009W0 メンズ

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.

Everything about this watch is neat and beautiful. I like that it’s both automatic and hand-winding because I don’t usually wear watches during weekend. Definitely level up my outfit game!

Très belle montre, la qualité de construction est là. Semble avoir une bonne réserve de marche.

I love this watch. I collect watches of all levels. Micro-brands, mid-level, high end and I have so much respect for Orient. Yeah they do a couple of things that drive me nuts (bracelets with hollow end links and stamped clasps). They make their movements in-house. That is horologically significant. Even at this price point. Which brings me to the title of this review. I don't know how they can make such a handsome wristwatch for the price I paid (105 with tax). I wouldn't blink twice if I saw this watch advertised for 500 dollars. It's that nice. One thing is for certain. Pictures do not do it justice. Seeing it in person, the play of light on the domed crystal, the creamy tone to the dial and those wonderful blue hands. The strap takes a bit of time to break in but it's not bad. It's pretty. I changed it out for something less shiny and a little more "me". If you're in the market for a retro-inspired dress watch, you can't go wrong with this. I bought the white dial with silver indices because I planned to wear this as an every day watch that can play the part of dress up when needed. This looks just as nice with jeans and a t-shirt or golf shirt as it does with a suit and tie. Accuracy has been minus 2 to 3 seconds a day. Not bad at all. I was pretty surprised at the accuracy for a mass produced movement but Orient is a proud company. I've had a few of their watches in my day and all of them, regardless of price point, had accurate movements as good or better than any of the pricier watches in my collection. I have mechanical dive watches (Swiss Army & Seiko), mechanical chronos (Omega), quartz tactical G-Shocks, vintage pieces and some lovely hand-made custom pieces with Unitas hand-wound movements and this Orient is the only one I want to wear of late. So light on the wrist and handsome. Reminds me of all those great watches from the late 50's and early 60's that came from Omega, Longines, JLC, etc. If you're thinking of dropping 2 C notes on a Timex Marlin, STOP. Look at the Bambino. It's so much more watch for the money with a superior movement and quality. Look at them side by side yourself and the quality and fine finishing of the Orient is very obviously superior. "Amo il mio bambino!!!"

What can I say! This Orient Bambino punches way above its weight. I've been wanting one of these for a couple of years & decided to buy one at a fantastic price....£116.00! Including P&P! I am happy, It looks great. I didn't like the leather but very shiny plastic looking strap it came with so had to change it immediately. As you can see in the photos I bought a royal blue leather (not so shiny) strap, to go with the beautiful blue hands. The photos does this watch no justice; the dial is a gorgeous pearl white which gives a very slight two-tone glow when caught by the sunlight. In other lighting conditions you get at time a hint of very pale green to the dial, which again looks gorgeous. I mentioned the blue hands; they can look dark blue at times, almost black, but then the light catches them at an angle & they look bright royal blue! The watch plays with the light in a totally magnificent way, you get total display of pure pleasure from this time piece. The quality is outstanding for a watch under £300. Yes, the strap it comes with is plastic looking, but it is decent quality, just not my cup of tea. All automatic watches vary in accuracy, mine speeds up by 8 seconds per day, which isn't an issue, this is pretty decent for an automatic watch, you can find far worse with £400+ automatics. A very well made stunning dress watch, for the person who wants a touch of class & simplicity. If you enjoy affordable, good quality, beautiful time pieces, you'd be crazy not to purchase one of these babies, or should I say "Bambinos".
