Oris Big Crown Pointer Date automatic indigo 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

With its deep indigo dial, this Big Crown is elegantly understated. The Super-LumiNova® numerals stand out perfectly under the domed sapphire crystal, and the famous red date hand adds a discreet but distinctive touch of contrast. The 40 mm steel case, its 12 mm profile and the integrated steel bracelet ensure a comfortable and versatile presence. A watch with character, easy to wear and full of nuances.

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.
