Oris Swiss Automatic Calibre 690 (ETA 2836-2 base) circa 2005

42mm polished and brushed stainless steel case with a 38-hour power reserve, water resistant to 165 feet / 50 meters. Domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass with an interior anti-reflective treatment, a solid screwed caseback with see-through mineral glass display window, an iconic fluted coin-edge bidirectional rotating flight bezel, and a massive, overbuilt aviation cockpit chassis flanked by an extraordinary, patented crown-locking mechanism at 2 o'clock. Imposing and deeply historical on-wrist presence thanks to its fine black engine-turned guilloché dial, crisp white aviation tracking numerals, and high-contrast instrumentation layouts.

On its original heavy-duty dark brown pilot leather aviator strap featuring high-contrast cream stitching, dual security chassis rivets, and a secure stainless steel tang buckle.

Elite, commemorative mid-2000s aviation masterpiece housing Oris’s legendary multi-zone mechanical engine, featuring a center time layout (T1) whose main hour hand can be jumped backward or forward in pure 1-hour increments using the rotating bezel or the dedicated pusher buttons, a localized home-time sub-register (T2) at 3 o'clock equipped with an integrated day/night aperture, a subsidiary continuous seconds dial at 9 o'clock, and an advanced automatic rolling date display resting at 6 o'clock. Strictly limited and individually numbered to just 1,945 pieces worldwide to commemorate 60 years since the conclusion of World War II.

Watch with box only, original specialized Oris presentation case included, official manufacturer registration cards and paper logs absent. Visibly worn pre-owned condition showing honest cosmetic wear across the high-polish case flanks, coin-edge bezel rim, and standard creasing/patina along the factory leather pilot strap.
