Oris Big Crown 1917 Limited Edition automatic silver dial leather strap 40 mm

A vintage design revisited

The Big Crown 1917 takes up the aesthetic codes of aviator watches from the 1910s. Its oversized crown, typical of the era, facilitated handling even when wearing gloves. The stylized Arabic numerals, blued hands and domed crystal reinforce the vintage character. The original Oris logo, affixed to the dial, completes this timeless aesthetic.

An exclusive movement for absolute authenticity

To guarantee the authenticity of this reissue, Oris has developed a new caliber, the 732, based on the Sellita SW 200-1. A special feature of this movement is that the time is set exclusively by a push-button at 2 o'clock. A safety feature reminiscent of the aviation watches of yesteryear.

Careful details for connoisseurs

Water-resistant to 50 meters, this watch features a 40 mm polished steel case and a brown “Bund” leather strap. The silver dial and cream Superluminova-coated numerals and hands offer excellent legibility, even in the dark. The caseback engraved with the original “OWC” logo and limited edition number testifies to the authenticity of this timepiece.

A limited edition for enthusiasts

Limited to 1917 pieces, this watch is designed for collectors and watch enthusiasts who appreciate historic timepieces. Delivered in an elegant case with an additional leather strap, the Big Crown 1917 is a true tribute to the past.

In summary

The Oris Big Crown 1917 is much more than just a watch, it's a journey through time. By revisiting a historic model, Oris offers us a unique piece, combining tradition and modernity.
