Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Caliber 403

Post by AtomicTom » Thu Dec 30, 2021 9:47 am

Guys, not sure if we touched on the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Caliber
403 recently.

The watch has a 38mm stainless steel case, 50m WR, sapphire crystal,
blue dial with sleek hands, numbers, and markers with SuperLuminova
on them. Then added to that, you have the Oris caliber 403 behind an
exhibition case back, as well as nice leather strap.


Here is a look...

I like that Tom...simple, with a pop of red!

I like it. Their in-house movement looks nicely done as well.

I’m a fan of everything but the size- 38mm is a touch on the small side for me.

I'm so happy everyone's enjoying this beauty as much as you are. :thumbsup: :)

Yes, honestly all of the Big Crown watches are fantastic when you
think about it. They are all so timeless it's not even funny, and the
attention to detail always amazes as well. In a way, the watch is
a great example of what Oris is itself. ;)

The real thanks goes to YOU guys for sharing your thoughts, and
always telling it like it is !!!

Very cool....Oris hasn't really been on my radar much but you guys are firmly putting them on my list...had to check some sites online when I saw the 5 day power reserve...they did it while maintaining 28800 vph...some of the other brands have turned the frequency way down in order to achieve a longer reserve... looks like it has excellent finishing...I just struggle when I see the retail and think of others I could buy...

I would like it better if it was a 40-41mm. But I do like the style.
