Title
Oris Automatic Pointer-Date Wristwatch – Silver Dial, Model 7458-40

Introduction
This is a vintage Oris wristwatch featuring a silver dial with printed Arabic numerals and applied triangular hour markers. The dial incorporates a pointer-date function, with a red-tipped hand indicating the date against a numbered track around the dial's outer edge, complemented by a secondary inner track. The case is round in shape, fitted with a green, reptile-embossed leather strap. The overall design reflects the clean, functional dial layout typical of mid-twentieth-century watchmaking.

Historical & Collector Value
Oris, founded in Switzerland in 1904, has a long history of producing mechanical watches, including models with calendar and pointer-date complications. The pointer-date mechanism, as seen on this piece, was a common alternative to the aperture-style date window during the mid-twentieth century, offering a distinct visual approach to displaying the date. This example reflects the design conventions and mechanical features characteristic of Oris production from this period.
