Product Description
Having been producing timepieces for more than a century, Oris has earned its reputation among watch enthusiasts and casual wearers alike. At 6 o’clock is a day and date window, where the watch takes its name Read More
What you're looking at is pretty much the pure definition of a "military field watch".
Non-reflective surfaces
Uncluttered dial that is easy and quick to read at a glance
Not too thick to get in the way of gloves and slides easily under sleeves - sleeves-down is the uniform of the day on deployments
100m water resistance - good for washing vehicles, working in the rain, chasing bad guys through water-filled ditches (been there, done all that)
Good lume for low-light visibility as well without being too bright to interfere with night-vision devices (anyone who works a lot with NODs appreciates this - most digital watch illumination will wash out NODs a bit)
Sapphire crystal for scratch resistance
Stainless steel to resist rust from sweat and spraying down a military vehicle after field ops
Real military watches don't need 24-hour numbers on the dial because military time is burned into every service members' brain during basic training.
I'd wear one of these on a deployment in a heartbeat after checking it and regulating it a bit better if needed.
I'd buy it *right now* but my budget won't allow it for the next few months.
Pretty good price for an Oris, but the PVD case doesn't float my boat.
Not a fan of the date replacing the "6" either. Or the day complication; I know what day it is.
Very nice watch for USD 559. Swiss made, day and date, decent movement, sapphire crystal, reasonable brand reputation. It has all the nice stuff. Personally, I just wish it were also available in a normal stainless steel case instead of the black one...
WatchyoutalkingaboutFan of real deals I would say. You can get the watch from a popular online store for 5% - 10% cheaper than here + next day shipping.
