Good looking addition to the range!

(Although the only thing that bugs me a little, is the size of the roman numbers... seems kind of too broad and made the dial a little cramp... slimmer, better?)

ya the dial seems a bit cramp..imho it's the minute marker ring that's occupying some unnecessary space..if the outer one is removed and inner pushed back, then the size of the numerals can be adjusted to make it more balanced..hands seem a bit too slim too

but still a beautiful watch! :)

dropped by mustafa orient section (big time) last night but new bambino not reach our shores yet..

Re: New Orient Bambino !!!

Got this from Big Time this afternoon. Fortunately, I was slightly earlier than another gentlemen who wants the same. But only one piece for the white dial with steel chain. I personally like the rose gold hands and insert but comes with leather strap only.

I am not a dress watch guy, but I like it so much I got it for my wife. Looks perfect on her!!!

If only the beige dial come with black hands. The blue hands made it quite modern.

Re: New Orient Bambino !!!

Mustafa see and look ok. But all 6 variant if want to feel, you have to go 2 wings to touch.

Buy? Go WINs la. All 6 concentrated @ the showcase where lots of ORIENTs are displayed, where no cantiks to serve u... ha~~~.

Price? Their listing.... mmm... yum yum. But you have to go during office hours, or evening till 2130hrs.

Mustafa hv extra "surcharge".

haha, WINS it is then. Need to see in person which dial is nicer. On screen I like the rose gold silk white model. The vintage one isn't bad either.

After purposely staying away from this forum for months....the first thread i click into kena poison. The cream dial version looks good. nice vintage feel. I like the blue hands although the font for the roman numerals looks a bit too modern

Yeah def would look like it was worth more $$ if they had slimmer numerals IMO, but still pretty good for its price point.

Re: New Orient Bambino !!!

I bought the new bambino roman recently. Absolutely loving it!

Was struggling between the white and the cream dial, eventually the blue hands of the blue dial put me off.
