AK00 Version 3

Looks absolutely amazing

I have been looking at the Bambino series and the AK00 for a few months, and finally decided to pull the trigger on the AK00 version 3, and I am not disappointed. The watch looks amazing, fits well, and is keeping great time. The only thing that is something that I didn't consider, but is far from a deal breaker, is that there is no lume on this watch, the hands or the dial, so there is no reading this while it is dark, but we all have phones too, so like I said, not a deal breaker. I really like the roman numerals on the watch dial instead of the hash marks. A great watch as my first mechanical automatic watch purchase, considering the price of this, and other Orient watches compared to most competitors puts it, in my opinion, much higher than some of the watches in the same price category.

Me encanta muy bonito

Delivered quickly and packaged nicely. The leather strap was really stiff but seems to be breaking in already. I’m skinny and my wrist is around 6.5” and it fits just right to not have any overhang on the lugs. Im used to a 44mm Apple Watch and this size doesnt feel drastically different, although it is noticeable. The tightest setting on the strap was too tight for me but the next one over gave me a comfortable amount of slack. Once the leather is worn, either one should be fine on a smaller wrist like mine.
