OrientBambino Version 4' Japanese Automatic/Hand Winding Stainless Steel and Leather Dress Watch

Beautiful watch! I’ve been eyeing this one for a lil while! Color is sky blue and the band is very complimentary. Smooth operation. Feels good in the hand.

I’ve been wearing this watch for about a month now. It looks just like the pictures, the colors are accurately depicted. It is much lighter weight than I expected, a welcome surprise. It keeps time very well. I don’t jog anymore, so I hand wind it. It takes about 8 to 10 partial turns per day. I like winding it. The second hand sound is extremely faint, I cannot hear it at all when there is any ambient sound. It is a thin watch as well, it doesn’t get caught on jacket and coat sleeves nearly as much as my other watches. I like the big dial. The blue face actually fades to a slightly darker shade towards the outer edges, this helps contrast the chrome dial markers making it easier to read in low light conditions. The watch band works great.Update: It has been about five months now. I wear it daily, the only time I take it off is to wind it, or when I shower. I could probably leave it on then too, but it is hard to dry between the watch and my skin. The watch has hacking, where the movement stops while you are setting the time. This is great if you want to set it to the EXACT time, but if it is within a few seconds, that is fine for my current needs. Regarding the band, it has shaped to the curvature of my wrist. I typically use one of two holes on the band. My wrist swells at night, so I loosen it one notch for while I sleep. It looks like it takes a tiny partial wind for each hour of run time. So if I wind it before sleeping, or work, then wind it again after, I do a tiny partial turn for each hour. You can go a long time between windings, I just choose to wind it daily. I am still very happy with this purchase. I typically wipe the watch face with a cotton Tee shirt, and I have used leather conditioner on the band once while I was treating a coat, belt, shoes, boots, holsters, etc. On the occasion someone, including watch aficionados, say “nice watch”, I reply “I know”.

I have had my Orient Bambino Version 4 Blue watch for a few years now. I mostly wear it weekends, my job is too hard on watches to wear anything but cheap LCDs. It keeps time within a few seconds (<5 seconds) every 24 hours. It gets compliments. The blue looks great in sunlight. I can hear the weight on the autowinding moving in very quiet places, but it isn't really noticable. Nice "Swiss" style automatic from Japan.

Cumple con las expectativas, hay que esperar como es su desempeño.

Excelente

I am amazed by the quality and aesthetics of this piece. From the beautiful domed sapphire crystal, to the classic style hands and markers, to the beautiful two-tone faded dial, this thing is beautiful all the way around. The size is perfect and the domed crystal does a nice job of giving the dial a magnified appearance. The band is top notch and the alligator pattern was a plus for something in this price range. I would have rather had the brown band, and accidentally ordered with black, but still looks really good with the gold and dark outer edge of the dial.From a functionality perspective, it keeps decent time, but I've caught it being a little fast by a few seconds a day. This isn't really a big deal for me and something I've gotten used to with automatic/mechanical watches. I just pull the crown, count to whatever I need, push the crown back in and you're good for another day. The comfort is outstanding and I can wear it for hours without even noticing it's there (other than constantly catching my eye of course).I have a number of nice watches and this is one of my favorites. Absolutely nothing negative to say about it. I wish I had a large clock size version to put on my wall!

I get a lot of compliments on this watch. From the face color to the design. It is a nicely sized, not too big, not too small. The band is comfortable. I haven't had a wind up watch since I was a kid, so that is fun. If I forget to wind it, it is very easy to reset the date. It will run 1-2 minutes slow every few weeks but, no major big deal. It is a good watch to travel with because I don't have to worry about the battery dying and finding a replacement in another country. I also have a gold and white face version which keeps the time perfectly and seems to need less winding, for some reason.

This is a pretty great watch. Admittedly, I'm not a watch enthusiast at all, but I was browsing around for a while, looking for a reputable brand that provided something both classy and rugged-looking. This Orient Bambino IV looked like my style (a little class, a little earthiness) and it was getting good reviews.After having worn it regularly for the past month or so now, I gotta say I'm very satisfied with the watch itself. As you can see in the attached pictures, the shine hasn't lost its luster, the leather band appears to be holding up quite well, and it checks off my style boxes.More importantly, after comparing its accuracy by checking daily with my phone's global clock, this watch seems to tick faster by about 30 seconds or so after a day. Not a big deal if you don't mind winding it every week. This being an automatic watch, i.e., it charges itself, no battery needed, with your own wrist's natural movements, I can't complain about needing to rewind weekly.Additionally, I should also note that I typically don't wear the watch on weekends, and have noticed it stops ticking after about 2 days without use/wear.Another note to add is that my foolish hand has a tendency to frequently bump into things right where the watch face is located and, I'm VERY happy to relay, the glass is strong, thick, and durable enough to not have obtained any scratches (yet).Overall, for the value, reliability, style, and accuracy, I'd say this is a pretty great watch to either start with or add to your current collection of time pieces. It earns my recommendation.
