Owners talk.

“

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 473 is widely praised for its refined in-house hand-wound movement featuring a five-day power reserve and a 10-year warranty, alongside its smooth winding action and solid build. Reviewers note the aesthetic appeal of the blue dial and tan strap combination, and the watch's anti-magnetic properties. However, some owners report issues with the movement, including a non-functional watch out of the box and concerns about perceived quality control, while the price is considered a significant increase over other models. One owner also noted the watch sits a bit high on the wrist. Overall, owners and reviewers are divided on the Calibre 473's value proposition due to movement reliability concerns despite its technical advancements.
