Oris Big Crown Pointer Date automatic electric blue dial steel bracelet 40 mm

An accessible, cheerful and timeless icon

Since 1938, the Big Crown Pointer Date has been accompanying watchmaking enthusiasts with its unmistakable retro style. Originally designed for pilots, it has established itself as one of the pillars of Oris design thanks to its large screw-down crown and its central date hand with a red tip.

Today, this iconic watch is back in fresh new variations, focusing on color and simplicity. Yellow, indigo or electric blue dials, a 40 mm steel case, and always that same unabashed vintage charm.

Powered by a Swiss Made automatic movement, this version of the Big Crown is authentic, accessible and expressive watchmaking, true to Oris' “Change for the Better” philosophy.

The model

The electric blue dial captures the light brilliantly and brings real energy to this Big Crown Pointer Date. The luminous Arabic numerals, the famous central date hand and the domed anti-reflective sapphire crystal contribute to clear and fluid reading. The 40 mm steel case retains a beautiful slimness (12 mm) for comfortable everyday wear. Mounted on a steel bracelet, this version is the perfect balance between retro spirit and modern expression.

The Caliber 754: reliability, simplicity and efficiency

This Big Crown Pointer Date is powered by the Caliber 754, a proven Swiss Made automatic movement selected for its robustness and regularity. It offers a 41-hour power reserve and incorporates a stop-seconds function for precise time setting.

The typical display of the collection is there: three central hands for the hours, minutes and seconds, and of course, the red-tipped date hand that rotates around the dial.

A reliable, easy-to-maintain caliber, guaranteed for 3 years via MyOris, which makes this watch an excellent choice for a first step into the mechanical world of Oris.
