Fellow WISs, I present to you my Oris Titan Chrono.

I have never worn this watch while I have been a member of 3T. Let's just say it met with an unfortunate accident involving a toddler on a high chair and a granite floor.

Anyway, here she is back from a complete overhaul and, boy, how I have missed her!

Nice! Happy ending so, enjoy!
The red/black tones give a + to the watch.
Had an Oris TT1 blue before but flipped it: Bezel was very thin...
Yours has a thicker bezel

Thanks Will. Yes, the bezel is about 3 mm tall and 5 mm wide and it grips quite well because of the shape of the case also. thankyou.gif

The part of the movement relating to the bottom / 12 hr counter. The hand was sheared on impact and the movement misaligned.

I see! Wasn't the case damaged?

Nah, just some superficial scratches - no major dents or anything.

Yup, and I learnt my lesson. Now I have a G-Shock I give the kids to play with!

Congrats on getting the Oris Titan Chrono back in the lineup Khronos!!!

Oris builds a heck of a great quality timepiece IMO!

I've got a small seconds (black dial, orange lume version), and it is just a great quality built piece for sure...all the way down to the small details.

Enjoy giving this one some wrist time!

Thank you very much. I totally agree. I only own the one Oris but I have friends who sing the praises of their Oris watches and they are not even into timepieces. Good quality just shows!
