What watch I wore today

[.brian.]

Please let it be known that I am NOT wearing sweatpants in this pic.

Edit: Also, why don't my pictures come out as nice as everyone else's? Am I using a potato (iPhone 7)?

Speedy Friday for me...

Beautiful piece! How are you liking it? It was my second choice behind the Sinn. I couldn’t get an AD to stock one so that I could try it on.

I love the dial on it. I do wish it wasn't quite as thick as it is. I can see that eventually annoying me which will lead me to swap it for something else.

Is that the 42mm version limited edition from a couple of years ago? Or the more recent 40 mm version?

New to me eBay pick up. Vintage Oris handwind.

40mm. The 42 has the reverse dial from this one.

It's too bad that it feels so chunky on the wrist. I guess that's probably typical of all mechanical chronos, though.

That’s why I jumped on my new Sinn with a Lemania movement. Being hand-wound cuts down on the bulk.

Decided the new strap looked better on an old piece.

Really nice, congrats!! How vintage is it actually? Did you have to service it? I wish there as many manual wind movements today, as there are automatic.

Best guess would be 1960s-1970s. It allegedly came oiled, etc. For the $10 or so I paid, i’m Fine to wait and find out.

$10?

I would warn you that Oris's are often franken'd/refinished from foreign vendors online, but for that price? Who cares. Great buy.
