A mismatched date window at the 3 o'clock position is criticized for detracting from the dress watch aesthetic, and one reviewer found the crystal quality low due to excessive reflection. The Orient Bambino Version 6 is valued for its vintage-style design and modern functionality. Overall, owners rate the Orient Bambino Version 6 highly for its dial and finishing at its price point.

The 4R36 movement is noted as an improvement over lower-tier Seiko movements, and one owner reports an accuracy of +4 seconds per day. Some owners find the OEM bracelet disappointing, but the watch is considered a "strap monster" with good potential for customization. Overall, owners rate the Seiko Selection SARV001 highly for its killer style and value for money.
