WHAT WE LOVE:

The Oris Big Crown Commander Pointer Date is a quietly charismatic timepiece that bridges aviation heritage and mid-century styling. With its hallmark oversized fluted crown, sharply domed crystal, and classic pointer date complication, this model captures the charm of early pilot watches, while being distinctly Oris in design language.

The black dial version is particularly handsome — balanced, legible, and timeless. The date ring along the periphery, traced by a central red-tipped hand, offers a nostalgic mechanical flourish rarely seen in modern watchmaking. The coin-edge bezel and compact dimensions make this watch easy to wear and full of vintage character.

Originally released in the 1990s, the Commander Pointer Date predates Oris’s full embrace of mechanical-only watchmaking in the early 2000s. As such, it represents a transitional era for the brand — before the widespread recognition it enjoys today, but after it began to reassert its independence and mechanical roots.

WHAT'S INSIDE:

This model is powered by the Oris Caliber 578, based on the ETA 2688/2671, a reliable automatic movement with pointer date function. It features central timekeeping with a sweeping seconds hand, and a red crescent-tipped date pointer that traces the outer ring of the dial. While the movement is compact, it’s well-suited for the 36mm case size, delivering smooth and robust performance.
