- This is my review of the 2nd generation Orient Bambino V2 (FAC00009N0) with the new Hacking & Handwinding movement. This is probably the best value dress watch under $200 or even higher. Check out this review to find out more about the watch.

How much it's pro
Many thanks for your unbiased review. A gorgeous, well-featured watch offering simply unbeatable value for money.
Thank you very much! Yes it is a fantastic watch but nothing is perfect and i think it is very important to talk about both the pros and cons.

i bought the open hearted version instead of this.. when i see it in the shop the blue hands looks awesome but i cant resist the open heart where you can see the gear inside.. but soon imma buy this one too coz both looks cool cant decide
That is such a wonderful high quality watch for the coin. Excellent review. That watch is on my radar.👍👍
+Watches Galore Thank you, really appreciate it! If you find it cheap, dont hesitate.

Mine arrives a week from today! Great video it was nice to see it so close up before I actually can hold one
Great review of a beautiful watch!
The only thing I'm not a fan of is the strap, but that's far from a reason not to buy as you can pick up a strap :)
+itsKibble Talks Watches Yes i agree with you. It does look good and feels pretty decent on the wrist. But i have been using the Sarb017 and the original strap for a while now ;)

I have the 1st gen in gold colour. Really beautiful watch
Incredible review. I just bought this bad boy from Japan. Hope I'll get it before christmas!
Thank you, means a lot! You will be very pleased with it, am sure.

Where can I buy it? Is there a website for it?
The cream dial is just fabulous
Great Review on a great watch, I recieved mine today and am a bit surprised over how yellow the dial actualy is and the lacker on the strap, with the 21mm lugs and the domes crystal they are obviesly going for the vintage look, but i do think they went a bit overboard with the fake patina,- but non the less i love the watch for its features and style for the pricepoint, its definently a keeper.
It's not a fake patina. It's a beige dial. Important distinction in my opinion. I like it very much. Sorry that you didn't like it, but then there are other models with white dials, arent't there?
@@michaelgraflmusic I got used to it by now, so its fine,- the vintage look grows om you!
I just pulled the trigger on this one.. Been wanting one for years.
the hand on the minutes is goind to the next minute before the hand of the seconds pass 60 seconds . Has anyone notice this ?
Is it me or have these watches gone down in price? Just a little bit ago they could go for 200 bucks or more. Now you can get them for 130 bucks! I just bought one. Been wanting it for a long time!!
Now is $117
@@harrynguyen2131 where did you get it so cheap?
I just bought mine today and I'm supposed to get it on the 22nd really can wait. I'd really like to get a gen 8 in red
A great review. Keep up the good work.
+Rasheed Thanks mate!

The hands are not heat treated blue, they are painted or blued by cheaper means.
Thanks for your comment. When the first gen was released people was talking about it having heat treated blue hands. I thought it was the same with this one. I tried to look it up now but i can't find anything on it. It does not say it is painted or heat treated. So i guess we should assume it's not. Will do some more research on it

You can usually tell painted blue hands by the lighter blue colour around the edges of the hands. Painted blue hands also have a different glow in the light.
If you have a good close look at the well known heat treated blue hands you will see the difference. Have a look at some IWC hands.
+Robbie You are right, they are not heat treated. They are most likely painted.

I really like all your watch reviews. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much mate!

What are your thoughts on the cream dial vs white dial?
Orient Bambino or Timex Marlin Automatic?
Your recommendation?
Excellent reviews please keep up the good wotk
What is the diameter with the crown? I wonder if my wrist is 6.6 inch does it looks too big ?
Order the cream dial one gonna slap on a blue premium croco leather strap.
which strap did you order?
Beautiest watch in history.
I really would like to get a clasp and maybe a new strap for this watch. Are there any that you would recommend?
You said you bought it from CreationWatches.. Where was it shipped to and did you pay additional import tax and customs charges?
I wish this watch came with the same face and dials but in a rose gold case with brown strap. Gorgeous watch regardless
They had that, but in a black leather strap. Unfortunately sold out.
Beautiful classic watch
great review :)
I've just purchased this watch and I'm thinking to change the meniral crystal by the saphir crystal!
None that I know of. Might be expensive for a domed sapphire crystal of that height
Can you do that?
SEIKO 5 Men's SNKL23 or this? I am still not sure
Excellent channel.
Thank you very much :)

F6724 ?
Where is stated 24 ?
I have this piece and it says F6722.
ORIENT makes great dress watches and divers
At around $200 this watch should have a sapphire crystal. And being doomed I’m sure the mineral crystal gets scratched more easily. For that reason I pass. I have an Orient Ray and it is my only watch with scratch marks. And I don’t recall ever doing anything to cause the scratch. I vowed for now on only sapphire crystals for me.
Can't decide if I should get this or the gold one!
now now, what did you bought?
Take both
can it be weared as a casual watch?
great video
Thanks!
How often do you hand wind this watch ?
put on a Hodinke Gater 21mm strap for $250 and you have a kick ass watch
how large are your wrists?
Important question: HOW accurate is it??
very
What’s the lug to lug length vertically?
I wonder if this watch would be better served with a acrylic crystal, at least some scratches could be buffed out.
+MrBacchus18 I honestly think you are right. Mineral is the worst crystal imo. Easy to scratch, almost impossible to fix. Acrylic, very easy to scratch, very easy to fix. Would prefer sapphire though.

It's a dress watch. Don't go hammering, jackhammering, MMA fighting or anylhing like that and it will be fine.
hopefully the genaration 3 has the same great f67 movement, with hacking and hand winding, but also has a doomed saphire crystal, now that's a bambino i would buy. thank god ive got an orient with saphire glass, cant tell you how many times ive smashed the glass on the door handles and frames. ha! i would pay an exstra £40 for it.
@@steveulliott4106 i myself can't find bambino with sapphire. gen 3 and gen 4 was still using a mineral crystal. so i bought the fac08003a and mod it to sapphire.
@@luthfanakbar6842 i think you mean version 1,2,3,4, there are only 2 generations, and 4 versions for gereration 2, but i like that you changed your v4 bambino to saphire Crystal, do you get a new rubber gasket, how did you do it, would like to give this a try myself?
Can't really see the strap color
Green dial??
What's the name of the music?
As good looking as the watch is the watch strap is way too stiff
Song please ?
Can you change the strap by yourself ?
Yes. usually need a strap removal tool or small flathead screwdriver.
Очень красивые часы!
Is this watch too big for a guy with a thin wrist?
Snake Plissken As a dress watch, I think it's too big for someone with small wrists.
why is the 4 = | | | |
To balance out the VIII on the other side of the dial
please less camera effects like tint so we can see how they really look in the real life, no need for effects
My wife has gifted me this..
What size is your wrist?
7 inches
Green Dial????????
cream dial

I’m the 1,000th like 👍
Strange roman 5 and 7 are wrong
That's actually a stylistic choice, this watch only shows 12, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 as roman numerals. Probably for spacing, if I had to guess
Number 4 is wrong
@@killahg8603 it isn't. The number 4 is represented this way on watches that use roman numerals. Look it up.
Looks like a toy watch
It’s a total piece of shit ! Do not buy it !
40.5mm is far too large for the style of watch, and for small men and most Asian's it's silly on them. 21mm lug width will insure that it gets even fewer buyers and exponentially fewer strap changes. This will look even more dated than the era of blingy, patent-leather looking ceramic bezels in a few years.
