Highlighting the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Full Bronze
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 авг 2024
- For the first time the bronze big crown pointer date gets a full bronze bracelet option. In my opinion it completes the model. It helps the dial options stand in full contrast or compliment to the red hues of the metal. This uncommon material helps keep Oris's longest running continuous design fresh and relevant in today's market. I was surprisingly drawn to this new model. Especially the Bordeaux and Blue dial options. What do you guys think?

Stay tuned for my thoughts on the Sun Wukong Edition, and the Cervo Volante BCPD. Thanks!
Very profesional, and well spoken. You've really matured as a collector. As usual, this review was very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing them
Thank you Tara, I appreciate that
Great video Bruce! Love Oris fantastic brand I think
Great points, love the bronze.
Honestly the bronze look is growing on me day by day, with every new browsing session that I do on watch websites. I’m so close to grabbing this watch with the burgundy dial, it would be the most expensive watch in my collection by far, and of course my first bronze watch. The thought of not liking the patina doesn’t worry me, because I believe I will enjoy the look of it no matter what, but I will say I feel as though I could break into this price tier with a different choice and be happier. I know I will enjoy this watch a lot, but at this price point, it will be a while before I am able to dip back in and look to purchase another watch, say 16 months, so I just want to be sure I’ll be happy. Full honesty too I intend on attempting to wear it daily, and do a Timelapse of the patina, and also possibly using a heavy metal hand cleaner, like auto techs use, to try and keep my wrist clean, but I’m going to look into the discoloring effect more too before I buy. I’ve been looking at it for about a week now and I’ll give it another week before I make my decision. So far though, out of any bronze watch I’ve looked into priced USD$2500 and below, this one seems to be leagues above other bronze models in this price category. Love the cotton candy full bronze too, but those colors are a bit adventurous for me. Great vid!
Did you get it in the end? :D
I personally would like to see more watch brands utilize sterling silver in their watch cases and bracelets because it patina's to a very beautiful yellow blue and easily polished if so desired
Good video! As a long term Oris customer( 5 in collection), I am.finding that with time, I prefer not to worry about magnetism. I have upgraded to Omega, Railmaster, as a daily watch, mainly for this reason. I have the 80th Anniversary Oris,Pointer date, and it's a nice watch, to wear sporadically. I believe, the Sellita movements , in Oris , are slowly be coming a liability, in terms of specs , such as power reserve, anti magnetism, and increasingly, value for money, as their prices increase.
My blue/bronze with bracelet is in the mail now… I did such little research before pulling the trigger, that’s how awesome it looked to me. After watching this video, I traveled back in time and ordered one even sooner 😓
It is cool. In fact, bronze bracelet is always enticing. Zelos, Tudor and Oris, well done.
Currently saving for the blue dial version, it will be a watch that can cut in line of my rotation whenever it wants lol
I like this. Great watch
What a trip and opportunity Bruce!
I've been a fan of the pointer date for a long time after all it's a date that you can read whatever the time without it being obscured once an hour by the minute hand. I have a steel oxblood dial on the reindeer strap and it's one of my favourites. I do like the bronze but I'd need to see it in the flesh first, it would also have to have that oxblood dial.
I think it looks great. Don't own an Oris, yet. The big crown pointed date likely will be my first of theirs.
Hansome watches for sure. I wish Oris made more day and date or no date options.
How noticeable is the different color crown? Apparently more orangey than the rest of the watch and bracelet
The Pointer Date is probably my favorite Oris along with the classic Aquis and this bronze version is really interesting. With the burgundy or the blue dial I think it looks amazing. The only thing that I haven't understood yet is how I feel about the patina that the bronze naturally have. Is it for me or I only like it when it's brand new? I have to understand this before to decide if this could be my first Oris.
100 percent
I have the same exact dilema. Do u know how often you clean the patina without harming the materials?
Hi. I have 2 Oris bronze watches and they are awesome. I do NOT like patina, so I clean them regularly. It is very easy. Have this standing ready close by: A cloth and a bottle of lemon juice. Splash juice on the cloth and rub for 45 seconds, and the watch is clean and shining like new. I probably do this once or twice a month. It really takes very little time, but that is the price you have to pay if you don’t like patina. I happily pay this price. So try to patina the watch and if you don’t like it, use cloth and juice.
@@juansole8918 Hi. I have cleaned my 2 Oris bronze for years, since 2018 and there is no harm to the materials. I clean several times a month. The bronze looks as new, not a worry.
Is the bracelet solid links? Looking to get one green face this month (:
I pray they make a bronze bracelet for the 36 mm. This is too big for me, but it's a sharp watch.
Hey I was wondering I live in Logan and I hear that you have a group of people in SLC that gets together to talk watches. How I can connect with you guys?
I cannot get over the patina created from the bronze material. Wish they made these in stainless steel
They do :)
What do you mean? They made these watches in steel already, these are just the followed versions made in bronze.
I love a bronze watch, but the full bronze bracelet is just too gaudy for me. Dark leather straps look better, IMO.
Excellent video Bruce. Love Oris, not tried a bronze watch, really don't understand the appeal TBH. Not a colour I'm fond of when it's new, & a patina'd watch just looks dirty to me.
Did enjoy the video, thank Bruce 👍🏻👍🏻
Completely agree. Bronze watches look great brand new but after a year they look dirty and like they've been worn for 20 years. May be a look some people desire but I can't understand why.
I'm largely not a fan of red or burgundy on watches, but I have to admit, nobody does the color better than Oris.
I am a fan of Oris I think they do a great job ,however I'm not a fan of bronze watches.
It's very Bad when a CEO has to use reverse psychology to sell a product! It is quite simply an excuse for the bad choice of material used on a NEW release. Excuses are usually never admitted publicly by any manufacturer and are often addressed with an updated model after public feedback, and only once they manage to sell existing stock. Bronze is just not a practical metal to use on a bracelet even if you do shower everyday. It looks great of course. It's an expensive and impractical novelty. Great review as usual Bruce, you have one of the best channels on RUclips.
Love the bronze models. Did I hear correctly that the crown is “treated” or a different alloy? So the crown will not age like the watch case?
I believe it's bronze like the rest of the watch. Oris did not state during the event that it was another material
I have the bronze Dial bronze model with the brown leather strap and the crown patina is exactly the same as the case
Any reviews coming up of the Oris rega fleet limited edition??, seems a bit pricey but I made parts for one of the helicopters so I am drawn to buying one or should I wait till the price drops?
I don't have any reviews planned for the rega fleet. The next Oris videos will be about the Cervo Volante and the Aquis Sun Wukong limited edition
@@BruceWilliams ok, thank you Bruce. Love your videos.
Bruce’s hair is from shower every day, or from not shower at all?
From sticking my finger in a wall socket
Nice watches apart from being bronze its just a fad
That pretty full bronze is going to look rancid when it oxidizes uneven.
Why do you factor in your purchase decision how a watch looks in a few years? You are flipping it within months anyway :-)
Some I flip quick and some I don't. No rules is the only way to go about this hobby for me
Great video, but the music for the intro was godawful.
My girl says your hair is from 2003
Close... From late 2007
Lol....Just apply body lotion on your wrist before you put the bronze watch....
Shower.....hahaha....
Hands look dated
What a lot of people do not know about bronze patina is that it still requires the user to wipe down the watch somewhat regularly so that the oxidation happens evenly over its surface and eventually develop a consistent protective layer. This is akin to the advice to shower with it. Sure, it will take longer to get the vintage bronze patina look but it will be less likely to patina unevenly or get out of control like Tetsuo at the end of Akira.
what do you exactly mean by "wipe down"?
@@dancinglizard3080 I just mean cleaning off any debris or uneven bits of oxidation with a towel, microfiber cloth, or old t-shirt.
...but not polish vigorously with the cloth unless the patina is already very uneven. Then again, some people like uneven bronze patina so it really comes down to one's preference.
@@MrJamesDuffy aha i see. Thank you for explaining 😊
