Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403vsanOrdain Model 1 (Group Buy)

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 is praised for its in-house Calibre 403 movement offering a 120-hour power reserve and a 10-year warranty. Owners and reviewers highlight its good finishing, inspired dial design with luminous Arabic numerals, and the analog date complication for quick checks. The 40mm stainless steel case is 12.3mm thick with 50 meters of water resistance. Some owners find the 40mm size perfect, while others prefer the 36mm version. The deer leather strap's clasp scratches easily, and the higher price point compared to standard models is a point of discussion, with a noted owner concern about time-setting accuracy not yet addressed. Overall, owners and reviewers value the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 for its impressive performance and refreshed aesthetic at its price point.

Owners widely praise the anOrdain Model 1 (Group Buy) for its exceptional vitreous enamel dial, custom typography, and elegant, handmade aesthetic. The dial's deep colors and light-reflecting properties are frequently highlighted as a standout feature, with crisp printing and legible layouts. One owner notes the case finishing is basic but well-executed with a high-polish finish and defined lugs. The watch is considered worth the wait and looks better in person, becoming a daily wearer for some. However, long wait times from deposit to delivery, sometimes nearly two years, are a significant drawback. The Sellita SW200-1 movement is standard with a 38-hour power reserve, and one reviewer wished the 12.3mm case was slimmer. Another owner found the case plain and the buckle thin, while also noting white hands could crowd dial numbers on a GMT variant. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting good timekeeping and another noting the watch is keeping good time.
