Your Guide to the Orient Bambino RA-AC0M04Y

Have you treated yourself to an Orient Bambino Automatic RA-AC0M04Y? Congratulations! You've got a true classic on your wrist. To ensure you enjoy your elegant watch for a long time, we've compiled the most important information on care and handling for you here.

Safety First: What You Need to Watch Out For

Before we get into the details, here are two important notices:

• WARNING: Ignoring certain instructions can, in the worst case, lead to serious injury. So, read carefully!
• CAUTION: If you disregard other instructions, your beautiful watch could be damaged.

The Bambino RA-AC0M04Y in Daily Use: What You Should Pay Attention To

1. Water Resistance: More Than You Think, But...

   • Your Bambino is "Water Resistant." This means it can handle splashes from washing your hands or rain.
   • But: It is not suitable for swimming or diving! Remember, leather straps and water generally don't mix well.
   • When you wear the watch, make sure the crown is always pushed in. This prevents water from getting inside.
   • If your watch does get wet, pat it dry immediately with a soft, dry cloth.
   • Even though your Bambino is water-resistant, avoid holding it under a strong stream of water.

2. Protection from Shocks: Treat It with Love!

   • The Bambino is an elegant watch, not a sports companion. You should take it off when playing sports.
   • Sure, you can wear it while golfing, but it's not the right partner for intense activities.
   • Be especially careful not to drop it!

3. Magnetism: The Invisible Danger

   • Strong magnetic fields can harm your watch. So, don't place it right next to speakers, handbags with magnetic clasps, or other strong magnetic sources.
   • If your watch has been exposed to magnetism, it might run inaccurately for a short time. But don't worry, it usually regulates itself again.

4. Vibrations: Not a Big Deal, But...

   • Strong vibrations, like from riding a motorcycle, can affect your watch's accuracy. However, this should generally only be temporary.

5. Temperatures: Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold

   • Extreme temperatures are not good for your Bambino. Avoid exposing it to intense heat or cold for extended periods.
   • A sauna visit with the Bambino on your wrist? Not a good idea! The heat can harm not only the watch but also your skin.

6. Chemicals: Be Careful in Everyday Life

   • You come into contact with many chemicals in daily life. Be careful with perfume, cleaning agents, or solvents. These substances can change the appearance of your watch or even damage it.

7. Important Notes:

   • Do not open it yourself under any circumstances! If your watch has a problem, take it to a professional.
   • Small parts of the watch are not toys for children!
   • If you experience skin irritation, stop wearing the watch and see a doctor.

The crown has different positions:

The position of the crown, date, etc., can vary depending on the model. Some models have a bezel and an inner rotating ring. You can find details on how to use them in this manual.

Automatic Movement: How It Works

Your Orient Bambino is an automatic watch. This means:

• It winds itself through your movement. Wear it regularly, and it will run on its own.
• If you haven't worn it for a while and it has stopped, swing it back and forth a few times to get it going again.
• A fully wound Bambino runs for about 40 hours.
• For optimal accuracy, you should wear it daily.

Caliber Number: The Heart of Your Watch

• The caliber number provides information about the movement in your Bambino.
• You can find the case code on your warranty card or on the back of the watch.

Setting the Time and Date (Using Your Bambino RA-AC0M04Y as an Example)

Since your Orient Bambino Automatic RA-AC0M04Y belongs to the Caliber F67 family, here are the instructions on how to set the time and date on your watch:

1. Setting the time:

   • Pull the crown out to the second click when the second hand is at the 12 o'clock position. The second hand will then stop.
   • Turn the crown counter-clockwise to set the current time.
   • Important: When setting the time, first move the hand slightly past the current time and then advance it to the correct time.
   • Make sure you set the correct time of day (a.m. or p.m.), as the date changes at midnight.

2. Setting the date:

   • Pull the crown out to the first click.
   • Turn the crown counter-clockwise to set the current day.
   • Push the crown back to the normal position.

3. Correcting the date:

   • Remember to correct the date at the end of months with fewer than 31 days.
