Baselworld 2012: Looking at watches like this new
Oris Big Crown Date, I can’t help but think that the monotone look has
run its course, — and Oris is, by the way, late to the show. If
anything, this is surely a poor reflection on other all-black or
all-grey watches of recent years that actually look good (Bell &
Ross comes to mind). Oris seems to have taken a perfectly reasonable
watch and ruined it with a grey-PVD finish. The style of the watch
seems to me like that of a military Officer’s field watch — not some
stealth commando. And to top it all off they put it on a dark BROWN leather strap. Awful.
