  • 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.

    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.

    • @michaelgraflmusic
      @michaelgraflmusic 2 года назад

      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?

      @WatchesAndCars  7 лет назад +3

      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.

    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.

      +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.

    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.
