The Pilots Watch
Let’s take a look at a watch type which has played an immensely large part in the history of horology. The pilots watch origins date back over 100 years and the necessity for a clear, solid and dependable time telling device hasn’t gone away. Naturally, they have evolved along with the world and advancements in technology, however, our suggestion remains very true to what the pilots were using decades ago and this specific model itself has a pretty fascinating history.
Realistically, if you’re looking for a pilots watch to use while actually piloting an aircraft, there will be many more modern options out there that would fit the brief, however, if you want something that acts as a reminder of the evolution of these popular watches, we have you covered…
The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 80th Anniversary Edition – what it does
Founded in 1904, Oris Watches are one of those names in horology that consistently perform very well.
Whether it’s diving, aviation, motor-sports or more dress Oris have (and has for many years) watches for each in abundance. However, one of the most important models in their range sits in aviation. Initially introduced in 1938, the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date has truly seen it all and is definitely one of those watches that’s really earnt its place in the current line up.
“No watch tells the historic tale of independent Swiss watchmaker Oris quite like the iconic Big Crown Pointer Date. It’s a potent symbol of Oris’s philosophy, and some say that without it Oris might not enjoy its current status as a leader in Swiss Made mechanical watches.”
The Pointer Date has survived everything Oris has since ’38, managing to be one model in the line up to still remain in production through the quartz crisis, something which historically wiped out many Swiss mechanical manufactures at the time.
