Bambino Small Seconds 40.5mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 40.5 mm case suggests

Orient Bambino Small Seconds 40.5mm measures 46 mm lug-to-lug on a 40.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.14 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 59% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 70% of the 20 Orient watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 52 mm (2.05 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 62 mm (2.44 in) it starts to look compact. Below 46 mm (1.81 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 12 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 45% of the watches with a listed thickness.
