Released to commemorate the brand's 75th anniversary, this limited edition Bambino reintroduces the original cursive Orient logo during the 1950's. Applied bronze-toned Roman numerals at the twelve, eight, and six o'clock positions provide a stark visual contrast against the matte cream dial. A heavily domed crystal creates a distinct optical distortion along the outer minute track, enhancing the vintage aesthetic profile of the case.
Founded in Tokyo in 1950, Orient is one of Japan’s most significant and long-standing watch manufacturers, highly regarded for its unwavering focus on producing mechanical timepieces with in-house movements. Unlike many watchmakers in its price segment, Orient's production is vertically integrated, meaning the brand manufactures its own calibres, cases, and other components, ensuring a high degree of quality control.
Its diverse catalogue includes iconic model families such as the Bambino for classic dress watches, the Mako and Kamasu for robust dive watches, and the more premium, highly finished Orient Star line. Though part of the Seiko Epson corporation, Orient maintains its independent manufacturing heritage, cementing its distinct identity as a pillar of Japanese watchmaking.
