Orient expands its renowned Classic Collection by introducing four new Compact Classic and Simple Style 36 timepieces.
Watch enthusiasts widely refer to this popular collection as the beloved Bambino line. The brand crafts these versatile unisex models to fit smaller wrists perfectly while providing timeless vintage appeal.
Specification
The design of this collection relies on pure timekeeping functionality and refined minimalist aesthetics. Orient removes the traditional date window to create an uncluttered and highly balanced dial layout.
It still retains signature vintage elements like slender lugs, minimalist bar indices, and elegant domed front glass. These compact proportion changes reflect modern watchmaking trends toward gender-inclusive case dimensions.
The stainless steel case measures precisely 36.4mm in diameter and 42.2mm in overall length. The profile has a thickness of 12.3mm, providing a robust yet comfortable feel on the wrist.
Each watch offers water resistance of 3 bar, which equals 30 meters of water depth. Orient use domed crystal glass on top and fits a crystal glass see-through exhibition caseback below.
Movement
Orient powers these four models using the automatic in-house caliber F6524 mechanical movement. You can hand-wind this movement, and it features a second-hand hacking function for accurate time setting.
The movement operates with 22 jewels and provides a reliable power reserve exceeding 40 hours. Accuracy ranges consistently between +25 seconds ~ -15 seconds per day.
Each model incorporates an easy exchange leather strap measuring 18mm wide at the case lugs. This quick-change mechanism allows you to switch straps effortlessly without using specialized watchmaking tools.
Orient updates the overall strap silhouette, adds extra adjustment holes, and carefully optimizes the stainless steel pin buckle.
