Introducing the 80th Anniversary Edition Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Bronze. This is a brand new 2022 model with the gorgeous bronze case and special edition green dial. The watch has a unique pointer date function that is rarely seen in watches today. The bronze case will develop a unique patina overtime, making each piece truly one of a kind. The warm, vintage inspired hues of the bronze case pays homage to the heritage of the pointer date line. The watch contains a signed screw down crown and 50 meters of water resistance. It has a double dome sapphire crystal that gives it the right vintage aesthetic and sits above the 80th anniversary forest green dial. The dial contains Arabic numerals and a cathedral handset that is filled with superluminova. The pointer date function on the watch has a red tip to highlight the date and stand out. The watch comes on a nice quality Oris thick brown leather strap with a signed bronze buckle to match the case. The watch comes with box and papers.

THOUGHTS
You could argue one of Oris most iconic and special pieces is the Pointer Date model line. The Big Crown Pointer Date is my favorite watch that Oris makes in it's current catalogue and with its immense popularity and gorgeous good looks it easy to understand why. The Big Crown Pointer Date is for those who love vintage flair in their watches but are looking for modern specs. The gorgeous bronze case that will develop a unique patina overtime, the double dome crystal, cathedral handset, and special pointer date function all add to its vintage vibe. The iconic pointer date complication adds a touch of nostalgia and practicality while also being something really unique that is rarely seen in watches today. The special edition forest green dial is one of the best color variants of this model and really pairs well with the golden hues of the bronze case. The 80th Anniversary edition has been a big hit for Oris and is becoming harder to find with discounts off the MSRP. If you have been looking for a special pointer date to add to your collection, this one is it!
