A special edition in bronze to mark eight decades of an Oris classic

Oris Marks the 80th Anniversary of their emblematic Big Crown Pointer Date with a Special Bronze Edition. Few combinations are as natural as hunter green and warm bronze. This iconic Big Crown Pointer Date is one. Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 80th Anniversary Edition Oris marks eight decades of a watchmaking icon The pointer date complication probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when one considers the independent Swiss brand, Oris. Yet, it is arguably one of the brand’s most important collections, which is why Oris is celebrating the 80th anniversary of its first Pointer Date watch, introduced in 1938, with a very special Big Crown bronze edition. The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date has always been a style statement and a useful instrument. Originally built for pilots, the Pointer Date had an oversized crown so that glove-wearing airmen could easily adjust it. It also included an uncommon complication: a date indicated by a central pointer hand. The new 80th Anniversary Pointer Date is a beautiful timepiece, which is a blend of elements, a combination of materials and colours that work together seamlessly to produce a truly handsome whole, and reflect on the watch’s design heritage.

Introduced in 1938, the Big Crown Pointer Date fulfilled that timeless brief. The original Big Crown Pointer Date was a landmark watch and in the 80 years since its launch, it has played a pivotal role in Oris’ remarkable story. In the years since, it has remained in constant production, surviving wars, the advent of quartz and countless passing fashions to become Oris’ signature design. The Big Crown Pointer Date was a milestone watch for the company, introducing the pointer date function into the collection and offering pilots a genuinely useful tool. MRP: ₹1,52,000.

Bronze patinates naturally as it oxidises, so that each watch will take on a unique finish over time. The deep green of the dial also has a natural feel, complementing the bronze case. The combination of materials and colours is symbolic of the watch’s design heritage, Oris’ rich mechanical watchmaking history, and the company’s natural location in Switzerland’s beautiful Waldenburg Valley.

The 80th Anniversary appears to continue the trend of the bronze Pointer Date, which was introduced earlier this year, but with a new British racing matte green dial. The outermost edge of the dial is printed with the 31 days of the month that the red tip of the central pointer hand marks, while a minute track sits between those and the Arabic numerals with five-minute markers filled with lume. The gold cathedral hour and minute hands match the bronze case (as does the seconds hand) and are also filled with Super-LumiNova. Oris is printed at the top with 'Big Crown Automatic' printed above six o’clock. MRP: ₹1,52,000.

This watch comes in right at the sweet spot size of 40mm for an aviator’s timepiece. The bronze case has a fluted bezel and an oversized screw-in crown. The domed sapphire crystal has an anti-reflective coating and the screw-in caseback is actually stainless steel (for hypoallergenic reasons) with a mineral glass exhibition window. MRP: ₹1,52,000.

The movement itself carries an adequate power reserve of 38 hours and oscillates at the rate of 4Hz. Seen through the exhibition caseback, Oris has finished most of the rotor in red with 'Swiss Made Oris High Mech' engraved on the outer edge. MRP: ₹1,52,000.
