Information: this version differs from the old model FER2400EW0 equipped with Caliber 48743 not benefitting from manual winding or stop-seconds. This new version FAC00009W0 equipped with the new Caliber F67 benefits.

With a domed crystal that helped define the popular Orient Bambino ER2400EW series, the latest Bambino is updated with a new look worthy of its predecessors.

The Orient Bambino FAC00009W0 AC00009W features a white dial with bluish hands, a combination never seen before in anterior Bambino.

Another big difference between the current model and the previous one is the use of hour markers in Roman numerals. This gives a more classical look to this piece. Here, numbers are displayed in an even number sequence (2, 4, 6, etc.) as opposed to the traditional three, six, nine, twelve sequence.

Each number is noted with one or more bars. If you wonder why “IIII” was used instead of “IV” for number four, the answer lies in the perfect symmetry of the dial. The golden needles are thinner and flatter than those found on the original Bambino.

These fine needles are reminiscent of classic watches from the past and provide you with a perpetual journey through time.

    Watch ordered Tuesday and received Friday.
    It turns, without pun intended, like a clock.
    I was a little surprised by its color (the dial is actually rather gray and not white like in the photos) but I am delighted by its beauty, its discreet charm and the impression of quality that emanates from it.
    This last point is of course to do with usage.

    hi, the watch has arrived well and work

    • twotter1160

      no problem. 3 stars for the delivery time much too long: 7 days from Paris to Brussels …

    Following the story as promised …
    The site sent me the details of the service center. This one is in Alsace and is easily reachable.
    You must send your watch but take the time to call them first to know the conditions of care and documents to provide the file.
    The SAV immobilized the watch for 5 weeks to a few days, as announced. My Bambino returned in a good shape after a complete revision of the movement + tightness test + adjustment according to the intervention sheet.
    Thank you to all the speakers.
    I do not wish you to use the service but it exists and has demonstrated its competence.

    I must unfortunately temper my first opinion because the watch stopped for no reason on 09.02.2019 at 22:07.

    So we will test the after sales service, which does not enchant me.
    Fortunately I still have an Orient CEM6300W0 that never failed me. With a simple caliber 46943, it works perfectly for 6 years (-2 minutes per month, if, if!).

    I will come back to notify the rest of the operations right here. A +

    I just bought this model and I must say that I am amazed. Name: FAC00009W

    It is a very beautiful watch. Is hit hard. The dial is not white but a very clear silver gray simply ideal. the blue hands of the dauphine at the limit of being too fine cut well on this dial and have changing reflections with the light passing from blue to black depending on the angles. The case is successful but the bottom, full, has no charm. Note that it is marked “Epson” but it is not surprising, these brands (Orient and Epson) are both part of the Seiko group.

    Reading other reviews on the bracelet, the idea of ​​change was left to me but I changed my mind when I received this little Bambino. The bracelet is made of crocodile calfskin brown chocolate color, shiny, with fine stitches a little lighter. The combo is just right! Of course, the leather is a little steep at first, but 20 minutes of “running in PG” rolling between the fingers in both directions have softened without damaging it, that’s what makes me say that it is not so bad that we want to say it! I still replaced the loop with a butterfly loop in a drawer to not mark the bracelet. The watch is incredibly comfortable to wear.

    Everything is fine, but how about taking the time, will you ask me. Version 2 of the Bambinos is equipped with the F67 automatic home-made movement, it supports the winding of the crown and the “second stop”. Total surprise; it is hardly believable: to reach every day since its reception on January 16th, we are on January 28th and the watch has taken … +9 seconds, not a day but in 12 days without touching the crown !!! However, we must admit that there is a little drift: small tendency to advance when it is almost time to block (+5 s / day) and to delay slightly when it is put at night or several hours. All in all, I find myself with an automatic watch at a good price, sparing myself to worry about setting the time … uh … for the moment anyway. This performance was never relevant on my Seiko SARB033 equipped with the 6R15 movement that takes almost 5 minutes late in a week after a first exchange under warranty due to a crooked race (-3 min / day with the initial caliber )!

    The range Bambino is big enough to find happiness, however only gen 1 and 2 have found thanks to my eyes: the gen 3 needles and the diameter of gen 4 (I will return) disqualifying these models.
    All this to say that if the East hit hard, the lack was missing the knockout. A little. Hell, if the Bambinos had a maximum diameter of 38mm, they were perfect. Because in the dimensions, we do not see the thickness of 11.8 mm on the Bambino: its glass being strongly curved, its relatively flat bottom, with this very successful case, one has a feeling of thinness approaching the 8mm only. It is the 40.5 mm diameters of generations 1, 2 and 3 that give the impression that the watch is very beautiful but not “elegant”. A little too big, especially if your wrist, like mine, is only 16 cm. Do not talk about the mistake of having raised the diameter of the gen 4 to 41.5 mm otherwise very successful, especially the anthracite dial on light brown leather.
    That there is no ambiguity: this bambino and very beautiful, moreover I keep it!

    Regarding the commercial site, “Conteenium.com”, this is an example of serious: attractive prices and very available staff responding quickly to the mails of request for information. I was entitled, at my request, to additional photos of the product taken on site. The stock seems rigorously followed in real time, after having ordered the last piece in stock, this Bambino gen2 v2 is immediately passed 3 days late for its new availability. let us add the choice of secure payment methods varied and varied, and finally, the immediate dispatch of the product with tracking number by what must be a logistics partner, so that I receive my purchase without delay or worry. It’s a no-fault for this small team that, I hope, can maintain its activity.

    If you have taken the shot and read this comment in its entirety, I will try to deposit a photo as a reward to illustrate my point (unfortunately, the site no longer allows content). Photo taken with a small smartphone, please excuse me, the Bambino deserves better!
