Originally introduced as a watch for pilots in 1938, Oris’ Big Crown Pointer Date has remained in constant production for nearly a century. Oris has retained the original’s oversized crown and pointer-date complication while subtly tweaking the design with its latest collection. Effortlessly blending Oris’ vintage sports watch heritage with modern design, the Big Crown Pointer Date remains one of the most unique watches on the market.
The new 40mm Big Crown Pointer Date elevates the vintage-inspired sports watch’s athleticism with three new dials and a three-link stainless steel bracelet. With vibrant yellow, sky blue, and inviting navy dials, Oris has injected a playful spirit into their classic sports watch. The Pointer Date 40mm features a brushed bezel versus earlier coin-edge variants, giving it a modern edge.
Powering the Big Crown Pointer Date 40mm is the Oris 754. A Sellita-derived movement, the Swiss-made caliber features 26 jewels, automatic and hand winding, hacking, pointer date, a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour, and a power reserve of at least 41 hours.

The rich history of Oris dates back to 1904, when Paul Cattin and Georges Christian founded the brand in Hölstein, Switzerland, where it is still based. Over the past century, Oris has reached many great achievements, including being one of the 10 largest watch brands in the world in the 1960’s. Since the 1980’s, Oris has pursued a catalog of unique mechanical watches that has channeled their independent spirit. From their patented Worldtimer to their depth gauge diver to their mechanical altimeter pilot’s watch, Oris has continued to innovate in a way few other brands can match. An achievement that is highlighted by the brand’s commitment to fare, and accessible prices.
