NOTE: This heavily discounted price is via LongIslandWatch. Haven’t ordered personally through them before, but they seem to be the place to go for discounted Orient watches… when they have stock.
For the price of a Timex Waterbury (or less,) you can now get a hand-windable, hackable, automatic Orient Bambino in either their original clean-and-mean version, or, the almost antique looking, retro/classic second version. Multiple color combos are available for each model too.
Clockwise from top left: V2 Cream, V2 White, V1 White.
All 2nd generation models hack and hand-wind.
Usually these things run between $150 – $200ish depending on the seller and code that’s being offered (standard price is $210 with a 30% off code direct through Orient). So under $120? That’s just about unheard of. Huge thanks to Reed H. for sending in the tip.
That’s all.
Carry on.
J. Crew is quietly doing 40% off some of their bestselling washed chinos.
Suiting up with a little color and other small nods to spring.
Next up in the trilogy: warming up a smart casual look.
The first of three style scenarios as we transition to warmer weather clothes.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
