What strap for the Bambino v2 ?
I acquired this Orient Bambino v2 last month and even if the original strap is ok-ish, I want to change it.
But I can't decide what to go for. Maybe something more vintage, less dressy, I don't know.
That's why I'm asking the community: what strap would you put on this watch?
For the Bambino owner's: show me yours 😁!
Thanks in advance.

So many beautiful watches! How can I choose wisely which one I will buy next? Or maybe a vintage to restore 😁?

If you want less dressy i suggest a blue strap that will compliment the hands. Doesnt have to be leather, could be cloth or nylon.
My Bambino is currently on the OK-ish factory strap but do want to change that for a simple, low key brown strap.

I agree with you, a simple brown strap won't do it.
I like your idea of a blue strap to compliment the hands 👍. I'll do some research in that direction.
Thanks!
I'd go with a brown strap to compliment the cream colored dial, with blue stitching to bring out the blue hands, if you can afford one.

Do you have a wrist shot of the watch with this strap? I would love to see that 👍 By the way, where did you buy it?
I currently wear my white dial/rose gold version with a black epson strap with cream stitching. It is quite dressy on the epsom strap. I have got a tan two stitch strap on the way.
Get a nice two stitch blue strap to compliment the blue hands. And it works great with the cream dial. That seems to be the go to color with the blue hand versions. Or even a blue epsom strap to keep it very dressy.

Thanks for the proposition and the link!
And your Bambino is really great in that version 👍🤩
My Orient on an Ostrich leg strap.
Cheers!
On that model you have to stick with #brown, #coffee, or some variant of #tan, surely?
