The Orient Bambino Version 2 TAC00009N0 is one of the most approachable Japanese dress automatics you can buy: a 40.5 mm stainless steel case, a champagne cream dial with Roman numerals and blue hands, and Orient’s in-house F6724 movement with hand-winding and hacking seconds. It is built for people who want a proper mechanical watch that still works with a suit, smart-casual outfits, and weekday office wear.
If you are comparing Bambino references, this Version 2 sits in the classic 40.5 mm family rather than the compact 38.4 mm line. The domed mineral crystal and slim 11.8 mm profile keep the vintage dress-watch look without feeling oversized on most wrists, while the brown leather strap finishes the traditional package.
Why the TAC00009N0 works
- Champagne cream dial with blue hands — warm dial tone and cooler hand colour give clear contrast and a more distinctive look than plain black-and-silver dress watches.
- Roman numeral markers and date at 3 — easy to read at a glance, with the familiar Bambino date window for daily practicality.
- In-house F6724 automatic — hand-winding, hacking seconds, about 40 hours of power reserve, and 22 jewels. You can set the time precisely and top up the mainspring without relying only on wrist motion.
- Wearable 40.5 mm case — roughly 11.8 mm thick and about 46.8 mm lug-to-lug, so it wears more compact than the diameter alone suggests.
- Domed mineral crystal — the curved glass is a big part of the Bambino character under office light or evening light.
- Brown leather strap, 21 mm lugs — dress-first out of the box; easy to swap later if you prefer another strap colour.
Who it suits
Buyers who want an affordable Orient Bambino automatic for work and evenings, collectors starting a Japanese mechanical rotation, and anyone searching for a cream or champagne dial dress watch with real automatic movement rather than quartz. It is not a dive tool — treat the 30 m rating as splash and rain resistance, not swimming kit.

Frequently asked questions
What movement does the Orient Bambino TAC00009N0 use?
It uses Orient’s in-house Caliber F6724 automatic movement with hand-winding and hacking seconds, about 40 hours of power reserve, and 22 jewels.
Is the TAC00009N0 dial cream, champagne, or white?
This reference is the champagne cream Version 2 dial with Roman markers and blue hands — warmer than a pure white dial, which is why many listings describe it as cream or champagne.
What is the case size of the Bambino Version 2 TAC00009N0?
The case is 40.5 mm across, about 11.8 mm thick, with roughly 46.8 mm lug-to-lug and 21 mm lug width. It is the classic Bambino dress size, not the later 38.4 mm compact models.
Is the Orient Bambino TAC00009N0 suitable for everyday wear?
Yes for office, commuting, and smart-casual wear. The 30 m water resistance covers rain and hand-washing, but it is not designed for swimming or diving.
Does the F6724 have hand-winding and hacking?
Yes. You can wind the crown to build power reserve and the seconds hand stops when the crown is pulled for precise time setting.
