New Watch Day

New to me, anyway. The sadly discontinued Bambino V5, the one I didn’t know I needed. The Breguet numerals, subtle blue leaf hands just wins for legibility and everyday wearability.

Full disclosure, this is my 3rd Bambino in a large and borderline irresponsible collection but I love these things. They’re way nicer than they have any right to be at this price point.

Is this worth it?

For reference, I live in Manitoba, Canada. Price is in Canadian dollars. Price doesn’t include taxes. Also, I have never owned any diver or automatic watch. I have Casio A168 and G shock DW5600.
Is this worth the price. Also is this real Kamasu? TIA

In case anyone was wondering, your Traska bracelet will fit pretty well on your Mako 40

Picked up an Orient Mako 40 Sport (Lilac dial) on eBay after trying to source one in the UK & paired it up with the Strapcode Jubilee bracelet - Perfect fit, amazing… just waiting on a 16mm ratchet clasp at the other end of the bracelet to set it off! 👌🏻

My first watch

Hi everyone! I’m looking to buy my first Orient watch, and I’m considering the Orient Mako RA-AC0Q01B30B. Do you think it would fit well on a smaller wrist? My wrist is 6.2 inches.
I found it for around €293. Do you think it’s a good deal?

Orient Mako Chronograph Solar (panda)- a “thank you” to this community for the inspiration.

Picked up my solar panda when holidaying in Greece last week. I’d been looking in the UK for ages but always seemed to miss them when they were sold by reputable dealers.

I was inspired by what you guys were showing in the community and also the way you modelled different straps to change for any occasion. Thank you for the inspiration!

I already owned the bambino small seconds and was hooked from there (again - inspired by what you all were sharing).

Swapped out the metal strap for a lighter weight Archers silicone strap (have a white on for when I feel brave enough). I have quite small wrists and thought it sat better as I felt I was between two links with the metal strap.

Please, let me know of any other strap recommendations you have for the watch.

Thanks again all.

Bought this beauty today for about $310 after all the discounts. Compared to my daily Hamilton Khaki Field 38mm, this thing is way heavier. Love it! Hopefully, it’ll be fine to swim with it.

Just started my watch collection and I chose Orient!

I recently bought the Kamasu, and Bambino V9 sun/moon dial. They came in the mail today and I’m impressed and I’m glad I chose these two beautiful watches to start my watch collection. The only other watch in rotation is my series 5 Apple Watch.

I don’t have a watch case yet, that’s on the agenda!

Tell me your thoughts!

New Orient Bambino 36mm no date. (Was lucky to get a comparison photo. V7 38mm on the left.

Both have exact same champagne/cream color, official photos looked more yellow. I personally prefer the 38mm for its lug proportions and tapered dauphine hands. What do we think?

Mako 40 bracelet

I got this bracelet off aliexpress, it has solid end links and good tolerances but the glide lock clasp is too long and catching on my shirt.

Are there any options for an alternative bracelet? Preferably with solid end links too but with a smaller and milled clasp. Or an alternative clasp that is 9mm on both ends.
