Thank you YK at Big Time for sending me this one down for review. I still can;t believe that Orient don't have an official distributor here in Oz. Anyway, this is a cutie, I love the size, but personally I prefer the central seconds. This one will sell well though due to it being based on a 40.5 that has always sold well. But come on Orient, give us one without a date, eh? Cheers, Jody

I have the small seconds bambino in champagne dial version and I absolutely love it the colour makes it look vintage.

[DocWat]

I'm so glad this has a date window.

Nice looking watch. And I prefer a date complication.

[robbieburke]

Imagine the original small seconds design in 38mm with no date 🔥

Bambino was a great watch when you could get one on sale for ~$100ish. I got the v2 cream/blue hands at that price and love it...but the domed mineral crystal is a real nick-magnet. Before I'd ever consider parting with $300 i'd need that bumped up to sapphire

[Spectrecontrol]

Love these, the hardest part is trying to decide whether to get the Kuoe or Bambino but I just had an epiphany and realised- I can do BOTH! 😄

A no date, champagne dial and gold case, then the version with the indices. I would instant buy.

[armandr]

One could say this Bambino is all grown up.

[nickthemullet]

i love date complications! and prefer them at the 3

[JuanHernandez-dwvq]

No date and no display caseback to slim it down would be great.

OMG an Underworld t-shirt. Jody, I've made this comment before, but based on your shirt collection I think we have the exact same tastes in music. 😍

Love Orient for the date window. I have one watch with no date complication - I appreciate it, but only because it shows me just how much I rely on the date window in all my other watches.
I don't have a Bambino yet, but it's only a matter of time before they make the one I just have to have...

[Craven]

I absolutely love this watch. The only thing I would do differently is change the hand style to Breguet hands and keep the blue color. Very nicely done Orient!!!

[victorutomo]

While I don't like the Roman numeral myself, i believe it is orient classic, so no complaint there.
But i totally agree with the date complication.
Great video as always Jody.

I could see me doing one of my old drink (bourbon} and buy, but even my favorite bourbon can get me past the date on this one. Thanks for the review and look forward to next time.

I got the first 38mm Bambino on your recommendation, and I LOVE it. The one thing I don't think you ever mentioned was the incredible inward curve of the dial around the edge and how the hands follow that curve. I know I haven't been in this hobby for long, but I don't think I've ever seen a curved dial with curved hands before, and it is one of those small touches that really helps these watches stand out as something special.

I just ordered the version 8 which is my favorite... I liked it so much I got two of them (green and red) 😋... Has the normal stuff, but has day, date and 24hr comp's... yeah I know you don't like the date but a lot of us do😂...

[randalnanfito]

I just got into watch collecting. I've loved watches since I was young but I never had anyone teach me or bring deeper into the world. mamacoo brought closer to a community and hobby I always wanted to get into more and that is incredibly meaningful to me !

[jazzventura]

Great looking watch, perfect for a beginner.
I used to have a 42mm Bambino, only paid around 130€ for it.

[hidecki]

YES! yes it is the best. My black cyclopse reverse panda is on its way. Cheers Jody
