The Watch

This Orient Bambino Sun & Moon RA-AK0801S watch is the perfect choice for any man who wants to stand out. Crafted with the utmost care and meticulous attention to detail, it will quickly become your everyday essential - accompanying you through life's finest moments while elegantly adorning your wrist and delivering a fluid reading of the time. Its round case is made from stainless steel and measures 41.50 mm in diameter and 47 mm in length with a thickness of 14.20 mm - thoughtfully proportioned for optimal comfort. Comfortable to wear, it features a stunning rose gold tone that adds a delicate touch to the watch. A mineral crystal sits over the dial, and a crown is positioned at 3 o'clock. It allows you to manually set the hours, minutes, date, and day. On the caseback, a snap-on case back ensures a water resistance of 3 ATM. Transparent, it lets you admire the watch's inner workings at any time.

The Dial

A round dial with a semi-glossy finish sits elegantly within the case, lending the watch a fresh and modern character. Its white base pairs perfectly with the overall look of the model and allows for a clean, crisp reading of the time. The dial features a three-hand display complemented by a day/night indicator. This sub-dial is held by two screws at 5 o'clock and showcases a finely refined sun and moon motif, lending the whole piece an aesthetically sophisticated feel. At the center, two dauphine hands and a slender seconds hand in rose gold tone move fluidly to indicate the hours, minutes, and seconds. They point to two minute tracks marked with lines and Arabic numerals, as well as rose-toned indices. These are displayed as Roman numerals for even hours and baton markers for odd hours. The time display is further enriched by a date complication shown through the aperture at 3 o'clock and a day complication given by the sub-dial at 10 o'clock. Finally, the brand signs its creation between 1 and 2 o'clock with its name and logo.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by the Orient F6B24 caliber with 22 jewels, crafted in Japan at the brand's own workshops. Delivering impeccable quality and sharp performance, this automatic movement offers a 40-hour power reserve and operates at an oscillation frequency of 3 Hz, or 21,600 vibrations/hour. It ensures the smooth, accurate motion of the hands, counters, and aperture, allowing you to read the hours, minutes, seconds, date, and day with precision.

The Strap

The strap of this watch is crafted in brown bovine leather with tone-on-tone stitching and a crocodile-pattern finish. Supple and durable, it wraps your wrist with elegance, ensuring comfortable all-day wear. A perfect match for any outfit, it adds a stylish, modern touch that elevates your look. Its pin buckle in rose stainless steel provides easy adjustment while keeping the watch secure on your wrist at all times.

Water Resistance

This watch offers a water resistance of 3 atmospheres, or 30m. This model is designed for dress wear - not for water adventures. It shines at social events and receptions, but aquatic environments are not its strong suit. It will handle rain, splashes, or dishwater without issue - but nothing more. We strongly advise against wearing it in the shower or bath, and even more so for swimming or diving.
