Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403vsBremont S302

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 is praised for its 120-hour power reserve and anti-magnetic properties, with reviewers noting its simplified design and vibrant blue dial. Owners highlight the smooth winding feel of the in-house Calibre 403 movement, which features twin barrels. However, some owners report minor time-setting issues, and the 50-meter water resistance is considered underwhelming by one reviewer, who also notes the deer leather strap's clasp scratches easily. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 highly for its impressive power reserve and value proposition.

Owners widely praise the Bremont S302 for its balanced 40mm proportions, legible matte dial with attractive tan accents, and satisfying bezel action, with one owner noting its hard, scratch-resistant case. Reviewers highlight its 300m water resistance and GMT function, though some find the bezel integration a compromise and the GMT hand adjustment limited. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting theirs keeps accurate time and another noting potential alignment issues requiring service. The ETA movement at its price point is considered high by some reviewers. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Bremont S302 as a handsome and functional dive-style GMT, with its comfortable lug design and subtle appeal being key strengths.
