Product Information
Full details
The Orient Bambino 38mm is an ideal choice for watch enthusiasts who prioritize classic, vintage-inspired aesthetics and reliable mechanical performance in an everyday timepiece. This watch excels at providing a balanced, minimalist look thanks to its date-free green dial, though users should be aware that its 30-meter water resistance rating means it is strictly for casual wear rather than aquatic activities. Featuring a robust Japanese automatic movement and an exhibition caseback, this model brings authentic horological charm to a versatile, mid-sized package that fits a wide range of wrist sizes.

FAQs
Does this model have a date window?
No, this specific Bambino model features a clean, minimalist dial without a date window.
Can I wear this watch while swimming?
No, the watch has 30-meter water resistance, which is intended for light splashes only, not swimming or showering.
Is the movement automatic or quartz?
This is a mechanical automatic watch, meaning it is powered by your movement and does not require a battery.
Can the strap be replaced?
Yes, the watch features standard lugs, allowing you to easily swap the leather strap for other styles that fit the lug width.
What does 'hacking' mean for this watch?
Hacking means the second hand stops moving when you pull the crown out, allowing you to set the exact time to the second.
Troubleshooting
Watch stopped running while being worn
Ensure you have enough physical activity during the day or manually wind the crown 20-30 times to build up the power reserve.
Time is running slightly fast or slow
Mechanical watches are subject to positional variance; store the watch dial-up when not in use and consult a professional watchmaker if the deviation exceeds daily standards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set the time, pull the crown out to the second position; the movement will stop (hacking), allowing you to align the hands exactly. Push the crown back in to resume. To manually wind the watch, keep the crown in the first, pushed-in position and rotate it clockwise. For care, keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields to maintain movement accuracy. Wipe the leather strap and stainless steel case periodically with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove perspiration and dust. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, perfumes, or excessive moisture to preserve the longevity of the leather and the case finish.
