Looking for a classic Orient Bambino with a green dial that still wears cleanly under a cuff? The Orient Bambino RA-AC0023E pairs a refined automatic dress layout with a deep green face, Roman-style markers, and the approachable 40.5 mm case collectors expect from the modern Bambino line.
This reference is a strong everyday automatic: Japanese calibre F6724 with hand-winding and hacking seconds, a convenient date window, and an exhibition case back so you can see the balance wheel at work. Water resistance is 30 metres — fine for handwashing and light rain, not swimming. If you want a green-dial Orient Bambino in Australia without chasing grey-market noise, this is a straightforward dress pick.
Why the RA-AC0023E stands out
- Green dial presence — deeper colour than silver or white Bambinos, still readable for office and evening wear.
- F6724 automatic — 22 jewels, roughly 40-hour power reserve, hand-wind and hack so you can set the time precisely.
- Dress proportions — about 40.5 mm across and roughly 12 mm thick, with a classic leather strap.
- Domed mineral crystal and open case back — the retro glass curve Bambino fans expect, plus a view of the movement.
- Date at 3 — useful for daily wear without cluttering the dial.
Who it suits
Best as a first mechanical dress watch or a colour alternative if you already own a cream or white Bambino. The green dial works with navy, grey, and brown leather shoes; the leather strap keeps the silhouette lighter than a steel bracelet sports watch. It is not a diver — for that look at Orient Kamasu or Mako — but for meetings, travel days, and weekends it is easy to live with.

Wearing and care tips
Wind the crown gently if the watch has sat still for a few days, then wear it to keep the automatic rotor topped up. Keep water away from the crown when it is unscrewed or pulled out. Wipe the crystal and case with a soft dry cloth; condition the leather strap occasionally so it does not dry out in Australian heat.
Frequently asked questions
