Orient Unveils the Latest ‘Orient Bambino 38’ with small seconds
Orient / Epson Sales Japan Corporation has announced the release of five new models in their popular “Bambino” series, featuring a small seconds sub dial at 6 o’clock. These new additions will be available from June 27, 2024. The collection offers a versatile size and a range of color options, making it an appealing choice for both casual wear and dress occasions.
The Orient Bambino series is renowned for its classic and traditional design, which includes standout features such as a retro-inspired box glass, bombe dial, and slender lugs, all contributing to a delicate and sophisticated case design. The latest models continue to build on this legacy, incorporating a comfortable 38.4mm case that was introduced in 2022, now enhanced with a sub-seconds dial layout.
The new models come in three classic color tones—black, silver, and ivory—as well as two casual tones—green and light blue. This variety opens up new possibilities for personal expression and style. The sub-seconds dial adds a touch of vintage elegance, while the overall design maintains the distinctive Orient Bambino aesthetic. Additionally, the cases have been slimmed down for improved wearability.
Each watch features a variety of dial colors, with options such as black, silver, ivory, green, and light blue. These dials have a slight sunburst finish and matte coating, imparting a unique warmth and understated elegance to the timepieces. Complementing the dial colors are calf leather bands, which enhance the overall charm of each watch.
The Orient Bambino 38 is designed to provide a comfortable fit and a timeless look that appeals to wearers of all ages. Its compact case, elegant dial, and simple time and date display with a sub-seconds dial make it suitable for daily wear and for those looking to add a sophisticated touch to their outfit.
The movement powering these new models is the in-house Caliber F6222, an automatic movement with manual winding capability. It offers a daily accuracy of +25 seconds to -15 seconds and a power reserve of over 40 hours, ensuring reliable performance for everyday use.
