Oris - pointer date - 7403-40B - Unisex - 1950-1959

Introduction
Offered here is a vintage Oris automatic, a classic Swiss everyday dress watch with a distinctive date-pointer layout. Oris is a long-established independent Swiss maker known for robust, serviceable movements and designs that collectors recognize immediately.

Historical & Collector Value
This piece represents the era when Oris produced honest, mechanically straightforward automatics with charming mid-century dial work. The outer date track with a red-tipped pointer hand is a highly collectible detail: it gives the watch extra functionality while keeping the dial balanced and very period-correct. The applied gold-tone Arabic numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9, combined with the textured center, create a look that is increasingly hard to find in well-preserved, original-style configurations. For collectors, this is the kind of Oris that delivers vintage character, brand heritage, and practical wearability without being overly delicate.

Condition
Overall condition is Good with visible signs of wear consistent with age. The stainless steel case shows light to moderate scratches and rubbing, particularly along the sides and lugs, from regular use. The crystal appears to be acrylic and shows surface wear/marks; these are typical for vintage pieces and often improve with a professional polish. The dial presents well with an attractive textured center and applied markers; aging is consistent with a vintage watch. The strap is black leather with a signed ORIS buckle; the leather shows noticeable creasing and wear, but remains wearable.

Band Length
A cone-shaped wrist gauge is shown with the strap fastened. The buckle center sits around the 15 cm mark, indicating a very short current wearing length.
