Introducing the Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403. A new chapter
in the story of an icon begins.
Introduced in 1938, the Big Crown Pointer Date has been in constant
production for more than 80 years. The original had two distinctive
features – an oversized crown so the watch could be operated by
gloved airmen, and a central hand that pointed to a date scale around
the edge of the dial. The form has become Oris’s signature design,
a Swiss watchmaking icon, and a byword for beautiful, functional,
timeless watchmaking.
Calibre 403
Now, the Big Crown Pointer Date is getting one of the most significant
upgrades in its illustrious history. The updated 38 mm model carries
Calibre 403, one of the Oris Calibre 400 Series of high-performance
in-house engineered automatics.
Calibre 403 first appeared in the 250-piece Hölstein Edition 2021, but
this is the first time it features in a collection piece. It provides the watch
with small seconds and pointer date complications.
As with every movement in the Calibre 400 Series, Calibre 403 has elevated
levels of anti-magnetism, a five-day power reserve and a 10-year warranty
(join MyOris to extend your warranty to ten years).
It’s also accurate to -3/+5 seconds a day – which would comfortably pass
chronometer testing – and has 10-year recommended service intervals.
