Big Crown Pointer Date

Design heritage, contemporary style

Made to last

On its 80th anniversary, the iconic Oris Big Crown returns. Made by makers for makers, the new generation brings Oris’s ageless design right up to date with contemporary colours and materials.

The Oris Big Crown. A pilot’s watch. A design classic. A hero. An icon in watchmaking. This year, Oris’s signature design returns, 80 years on from its 1938 launch. Oris’s designers have faithfully updated it, retaining key design features such as the coin-edged bezel, the pointer date and, of course, its oversized crown.

But it’s no replica. It may be grounded in the past, but it’s driven by the future and by a passion for making and for reinterpreting timeless values for our times and those to come. We found that same passion at Lot Sixty One, the Amsterdam coffee roasting house.

The new models have been updated for a generation of makers, while staying true to Oris’s watchmaking tradition. The case shape at the heart of the new collection is slimmer. Fresh dial colours inspired by Le Corbusier give it a stylish look. A suite of straps and bracelets offer versatility.

The option of a bronze case adds an artisanal feel. And now it’s available with either a 40mm or 36mm case to cater for a wider audience.
