Product Information

Full details

The Orient Bambino 38mm is an ideal choice for watch enthusiasts and professionals seeking a refined, versatile dress watch that excels in minimalist elegance. Its key benefit is the combination of a reliable in-house automatic movement and a classic, compact silhouette that suits most wrist sizes perfectly, though users should be aware that its 30-meter water resistance rating is intended for daily wear rather than swimming or diving.

FAQs

Is the Orient Bambino waterproof?

It is water-resistant up to 30 meters, meaning it can withstand minor splashes, but it should not be submerged or worn while swimming.

Does this watch hack (stop the second hand)?

Yes, the F6724 movement includes a hacking feature, allowing you to stop the second hand for precise time synchronization.

Can I replace the leather strap?

Yes, the watch features standard lug widths, allowing you to easily swap the strap for aftermarket options.

Does the watch need a battery?

No, this is an automatic mechanical watch powered by the movement of your wrist.

What is the glass made of?

The watch features a signature domed mineral crystal.

Troubleshooting

The watch stopped running after not being worn for a few days

This is normal for automatic watches. Manually wind the crown or wear the watch for several hours to build the power reserve.

The date changes at noon instead of midnight

Advance the time by 12 hours. The movement does not know whether it is AM or PM.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compact 38mm sizing fits a wider range of wrists comfortably
  • Reliable in-house automatic movement with hacking and hand-winding
  • Sophisticated design works well for both business and formal attire
  • Exhibition caseback adds an engaging mechanical element
  • Excellent value for money regarding build quality

Cons

  • Limited 30-meter water resistance restricts use in water
  • Mineral crystal is more prone to scratching than sapphire glass
  • Stock leather strap may require a break-in period for maximum comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, pull the crown out to the second click and rotate to move the hands; pull to the first click to adjust the date. Since this is an automatic watch, it will stop if left off the wrist for several days; simply shake the watch gently or manually wind the crown 10-15 times to start it up. For care, keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, which can affect timekeeping accuracy. Clean the case with a soft, lint-free cloth, and if you expose the leather strap to moisture, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from cracking.
