Historical & Collector Value

Oris is a respected independent Swiss watch manufacturer known for producing practical mechanical watches. The oversized crown is one of the brand’s most recognizable design elements, originally intended to make operation easier.

This example combines the characteristic Big Crown design with a diver-style case, luminous hands and hour markers, a date display, and a dial marked “25 Jewels” and “200 Meters WP.”

Its distinctive styling, wearable proportions, and automatic mechanical movement make it an appealing choice for collectors of vintage and neo-vintage Swiss sports watches.

Condition

The watch is pre-owned and shows normal signs of age and use. Scratches, scuffs, and surface marks are visible on the case, bezel, case back, clasp, and aftermarket bracelet.

The black dial remains clear and attractive, with strong contrast and easily readable Arabic numerals, hands, and hour markers. The date display is positioned at 3 o’clock.

The original Oris rubber strap has visible cracking and age-related deterioration. It is included for completeness but is not recommended for regular wear in its present condition. The watch will therefore be supplied on the aftermarket stainless-steel bracelet shown in the photographs.

Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.

The water-resistance specification is based on the marking on the watch. Water resistance has not been guaranteed, and the watch should be pressure-tested by a qualified watchmaker before exposure to water.

Service History

All basic functions have been checked and are operating at the time of listing. The automatic winding, time-setting, date function, and general running condition have been confirmed.

Future accuracy, power reserve, and water resistance cannot be guaranteed.

Any customs duties, VAT, import taxes, handling fees, or other charges imposed by the destination country are the sole responsibility of the buyer.
