The Watch

This captivating Orient Bambino Sun & Moon RA-AK0803Y timepiece is designed to make you stand out on every occasion, letting your unique style speak for itself. Crafted for men's wrists, it delivers that refined, understated touch that elevates any look - day or night - while being a reliable companion for everyday wear. Its round case is crafted from stainless steel and measures 41.50 mm in diameter and 47 mm lug-to-lug, with a thickness of 14.20 mm. Protected by a mineral crystal, it features a polished finish that adds a modern touch. Comfortable enough for all-day wear, the watch suits any occasion effortlessly. A crown at 3 o'clock lets you easily set and wind the hands, date window, and counters at any time, thanks to its knurled grip. On the caseback, the snap-back ensures water resistance of 3 bar while offering an admirable view of the watch's fascinating movement through its transparent display.

The Dial

The charming dial on this watch features a delicate round shape with a semi-matte finish and a beige vintage-inspired color that lends the whole piece a quietly refined aesthetic. It captivates with its finesse and clarity, making it effortless to read the time at a glance. At its center, two dauphine hands glide smoothly to display the hours and minutes, joined by a slender seconds hand - all three dressed in a striking blue that adds an elegant touch to the dial. The outer ring features a minute railway track marked with black lines, encircling a second railway track divided every five minutes by Arabic numerals for faster time reading. Even hours are indicated by grey Roman numeral indexes, while odd hours are marked by grey baton markers. At 3 o'clock, a date window sits alongside the hands, while at 10 o'clock you'll notice a day counter. At 5 o'clock, a sub-dial secured by two screws completes the display, indicating daytime hours with a sun motif and nighttime hours with a moon motif. Finally, the brand signs the dial between 1 and 2 o'clock with its name and logo.

The Movement

An automatic movement of Japanese manufacture powers this model, ensuring the smooth and reliable operation of the hands, date window, and counters. Specifically, it is the in-house caliber F6B24, developed by Orient, that was selected for this model. This high-quality mechanism performs flawlessly in every situation, delivering a power reserve of 40 hours for precise and dependable timekeeping under all circumstances. It features 22 jewels and beats at a frequency of 3 Hz, equating to 21,600 vibrations/hour.

The Strap

The watch is fitted with a beautiful brown bovine leather strap that enhances its timeless appeal with a refined vintage touch. It features tone-on-tone stitching and a crocodile-pattern finish, giving it a more captivating, sophisticated look. It will complement your wrist elegantly, delivering exceptional comfort throughout the day. Versatile enough to pair with both casual and formal outfits, it adds just the right note of elegance to every look. Made from stainless steel, its pin buckle allows for easy and secure fastening.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 30 meters - or 3 atmospheres in watchmaking terms - this watch is far from a sports or water lover like you. Water is its delicate movement's worst enemy, and our team strongly recommends keeping it dry. Rain or dishwashing? Fine. But skip the shower, the bath, the pool, and definitely the deep end - this one prefers to stay on dry land.
