The popular Orient Bambino gets a new look again. Here are three colour variants:
Grey – ER2400KA
Blue – ER2400LD
Gold case – ER2400JW
Here are new variants of the quartz model. Nice looking Roman dial. Wish they had this on the automatic model.

Yep… agree with you on the Quartz dress pieces… ORIENT should have use the dials and the combos for 3rd wave of the Bambino releases, such that the “retro” theme tied to the Bambino name could continue further… The latest version of the Bambino for 2015 release looks much more like a modern-retro fusion release.

The new Bambino(version 3) looks fine to me. I actually prefer the Roman dial on the quartz to go into the 2nd version Bambino.
