So now Orient takes more of a central position in design rather than Seiko that doesn't need to prove anything now, unlike in the 70s where it almost canceled Swiss watchmaking together with Casio and pretty much noone else

    I get the feeling that Orient is going around their Bambino lineup and making 38 mm versions of each. It happened with the og (V7). It’s happening with the V2 (whatever this one is called). I think it’ll happen again with the Bauhaus Bambino and the others. If we get a 38 mm version of the V9 and open heart, I will be satisfied

    Wow, these are gorgeous. I was sort of ambivalent on the larger makes they've had, despite their popularity as an affordable entry in to the world of mechanical horology. But /now/ they definitely have my attention. These just look so much more properly proportional. As well, my wrist is 7", so I tend to prefer the smaller side.
    I think I agree with you on the colorways here. While I love those blue, gem-like hands, the cream feels... off, somehow. But the other three are excellent. It'll be a tough choice between the black and white dials, but either way, I feel I'll be much happier than I would have with the larger sizes.

      Nobody can make a cheap sapphire crystal that's box shaped like this. They're quite a bit harder to make than a flat or conventional dome sapphire and would increase the price significantly. The Seiko and Timex watches similar to this also have mineral for the same reason.

    You don't need a date window on a dress watch!

    Even at 38mm this is too big. I would like the same watch with 36mm and much thinner.

      Yep, smaller and thinner with no date.

      My orient star diver is perfect!. But not the size. If only they made it 39mm or even 40 mm. Than it would have been seriously perfect. Oh well, i still love the watch.

    No they didnt. The case should be gold and the dial cream.

    Ben… please hidrate your hands or use some gloves. It’s a shame the view at 7:24 😢
