Oris Big Crown Calibre 113vsVaer G5 Pacific GMT

The Oris Big Crown Calibre 113 is noted for its distinctive mint green and rose pink dial, a 43mm stainless steel case, and an in-house hand-wound movement offering a 10-day power reserve. It includes a business calendar complication, day, date, and a non-linear power reserve indicator, with excellent readability provided by Super-LumiNova. One reviewer found the bold dial color potentially clashes with a business context and wished for a smaller case size. The Oris Big Crown Calibre 113 is priced at CHF 6,350 / €6,350 and includes a five-year warranty. Overall, reviewers highlight the Oris Big Crown Calibre 113's unique dial and extensive complications as its primary draw.

The Vaer G5 Pacific GMT is praised for its vintage-inspired design featuring beige lume and an orange GMT hand, with a 13mm thick case and 200m water resistance. It utilizes a Miyota Caliber 9075 movement regulated to -0/+10 seconds per day, and a steel bezel for true GMT functionality. Some owners report acceptable dial clouding at certain angles given the price, while one owner returned a G5 Pacific Polar due to a misaligned date, suggesting a potential quality control issue. The highly domed sapphire crystal can increase thickness to 15.6mm and contribute to reflections. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vaer G5 Pacific GMT highly for its true GMT functionality and vintage aesthetic at an affordable price point.
