Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 40 mm Automatic Black Dial, Bracelet [01 754 7798 4064-07 8 20 06]

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date is one of the most enduring designs in Swiss watchmaking—a true icon that has defined the brand’s identity since its introduction in 1938.

Originally created for pilots, the watch takes its name from the oversized crown, designed to be easily operated while wearing gloves. This defining feature remains today, reinforcing both its functional origins and unmistakable aesthetic.

At the heart of the design is Oris’ signature Pointer Date complication. Unlike traditional date windows, a central hand indicates the date around the outer edge of the dial, creating a display that is both intuitive and visually distinctive. This feature has become synonymous with the Big Crown collection and remains one of the most recognizable complications in modern watchmaking.

The black dial delivers maximum contrast and legibility, staying true to its aviation roots while offering a clean, versatile appearance suited to everyday wear. Large Arabic numerals and luminous hands ensure readability in all conditions, reinforcing its tool-watch heritage.

Encased in a 40 mm stainless steel case, the watch strikes an ideal balance between vintage proportions and modern wearability. It sits comfortably on the wrist while maintaining enough presence to feel substantial and purposeful.

Powering the watch is the Oris Calibre 754 automatic movement, offering reliable Swiss performance with approximately 38–41 hours of power reserve. 

Fitted with a stainless steel bracelet, this version enhances durability and versatility, making it an ideal daily companion. It transitions effortlessly from casual settings to professional environments, offering a blend of heritage design and modern practicality.

This is more than a watch—it is a cornerstone of Oris’ history. A piece that connects past and present through timeless design, mechanical reliability, and unmistakable character.
