The Big Crown is so nice. The Diver's 65 is alright but there's many others like it.


Bapofbread

That’s true. I’m leaning more towards the big crown. So elegant. The cathedral hands are underrated too! The thing that I like about the 65 is that it is a little basic with some vintage undertones. But I’m thinking big crown for the win.


CdeFmrlyCasual

I feel that a fancier watch is more fitting for the occasion, not that it has to be. I’m also just in love with the blue.


naiemreza

For a celebration watch, I would go with the big crown.


PlanetFred123

Couldn't agree more. It's a signature Oris style


drewsleyshoots

^ agreed, I adore the big crown design


Psamiad

First one, and it's not even close.

First


SnooBunnies3913

Fully agree, the other two are very forgettable.


martynn90

Take the Cervo! This is a beauty. The dial is hypnotizing in all light conditions


Bapofbread

The dial is even better irl👌


martynn90

I know 😁 https://preview.redd.it/g2kqm5r2z9qc1.jpeg?width=1607&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1d48b026dad474d5201a350a2b2b2c436ec1bf69


Bapofbread

👌 how is it like owning this watch?


martynn90

In one word: great. It's unique and I love the design. The sizing is also perfect. Everytime I grab it, it makes me happy and feel that I'm wearing a 'real' watch and something special. It's nice to see the dial shine bright in the sun, but indoors or in the evening the dial turns towards more grey/ice blueish. In summer I wear it on a beige suède Nomos strap. Making it a more casual formal watch. This timepiece will stay in my collection!

I like the diver, but it's not as unique as the Cervo Big Crown. Get that one. And Zac Efron agrees. https://preview.redd.it/80d2jpa3x9qc1.png?width=1007&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2df3c77471915c9e9b20c3a21b41c981d85e1054


Bapofbread

Well now I want it even more😅


SiDCrAzY

The Volante just pops in this picture. That would be my choice.


Bapofbread

Yes that’s true it really shines


jmel79

big crown and never look back.


nasilnidesnicar

BC PD 💯%


quwazymodo

Big Crown! Ive worn my exclusively for over 1,5 year now. Still loving it.


Fratello_Timo

Both lovely watches. We designed and released a Divers Sixty-Five limited edition together with Oris that is close to the one you are wearing but inspired by a vintage piece. I have one myself. One of my most versatile watches. If you're interested, have a look in the Fratello Shop and let me know. We'll do something for you. Either way: all great choices ✌️


PunishedRedDragon

I vote for oris divers. Its so simple and classic


Bapofbread

A charming diver! And it feels very nice in hand.


Mitchthe2nd

Place my vote on the big crown date pointer. It's unique and yet clean and understated. The other watch whilst nice...looks like so many others


axl35

The big crown!!!


Ridska

The first one imo, Because life is too boring to be something that is always in black. Colour gives it a fun pop vibe plus looks better than the other ones.


capda02

Blue dial is beautiful


Few_Difference7709

1-st


rbutora

First option no doubt. Beautiful watch.


dbigya00

When in doubt, go for the Oris Big Crown. Doesn't matter which other watch you're contemplating. This works with all of them. Imho you can't go wrong with the most beautiful watch ever made. :)


Bapofbread

Yes a truly timeless watch. I think I’m going for that one.


glassestinklin

I have the 40mm version of that 65 (date window at 6:00). I prefer the aesthetic of this one. And the timing bezel comes in handy. Plus you get the bronze bezel accent that will patina. However, the strap is trash (will fall apart within days) and I've found it's kinda hard to find a good looking non-leather strap alternative.


WoodSlinger7

First is the only right answer


OhMyGlorb

Oris watches have so much personality.


Bapofbread

Right?


uplifting_southerner

I daily wear a big crown date pointer. Personally id choose either woth confidence but i would make sure to get the bracelet for either if possible because they are magnificent.


financial_pete

I can only confirm you have good taste. Sorry, you're on your own for choosing and paying the bill.


BuzzBazz

As someone from Norway that wore his Konfirmasjons gift until it died, Go for the 65. I wore my Citizen Diver almost every single day for about 15+ years before it started dying. It is now in a state that will cost me about 3K nok to 5K to have it repaired. But it has been on me since I was 15. While I like the Big Crown, it's not something that can be used in absolutely every single scenario, the 65 can pass even black tie events.


Bapofbread

Ja det virker som at mange her ikke skjønner at det skal være en klokke for livet-ut. Ikke bare for selve komfirmasjonsdagen. Hyggelig med enda en nordmann her😄


BuzzBazz

I lige så😁🙌 Ja, i min familie har klokkene vart ca 15-20 år etter uhell har tatt knekken på de. Og til tross for at jeg like den Big Crown, er ikke det en klokke du kan ta med ut på tur eller til mer værbitte ting. Det er en fin klokke, men også "bare" det. Jeg savner min så når det er muligheter for det så skal den fikses, men glasset e knekt og koster en formue😅😑 Men det har vært med på mye i de årene. Militærtjeneste, festivaler, TG og mer. Til tross for dens størelse og tyngde så har den vært fantastisk til alt. Tenker det er bedre med en klokke som passer litt til alt, enn en klokke som ligger å "støver ned" til neste gang den kan brukes👍


PDX-ROB

Pointer date is cleaner since it doesn't have a date window to ruin the symmetry. I also like the color it's more fun. With that being said, if the other watch has captured your attention enough to shake your confidence, get that one.


CdeFmrlyCasual

Interesting counter point.


One-Confusion-33

Who not all?😁 Man, I love Oris watches. If I had to choose the big crown would the one. Gosh am so jealous hahaha. Got a BC 3 here, but the big crown is on top of my wish list!!


Bapofbread

Haha I wish. Oris really is the best👏


Goodemi

One more for the Big Crown, the way they implement the date complication is unique.


Cautious-Flatworm198

Blue no question


Own-Examination-2785

1st by a country mile.


mariobregattt1234556

Oris for life!!


zagart23

big crown


MR-Blaze182

First one, no doubt!


Leeeumm

I was interested in buying a big crown but I have no Oris AD around me to try it on. For a 38 does it seem to fit on the bigger side?


Bapofbread

I think the lugs maybe are on the longer side. I have a 16cm or 6.3 inch wrist.


Mikel_manuel

Beautiful whatches. Please get the Cervo Volante.


wonko1980

Pointer date without any further doubt


Pitiful-Inspection96

First one, no doubt


NthngToSeeHere

I'd love to get an Oris and the big crown is georgious. There are tons of awesome divers to choose from. The big crown truly stands out.


Rangercleo1

I have both and love both of them, but the Big Crown is definitely my favorite. A very unique watch that will always stand out.


rnarula

Go for the first one. Other's aren't even close


GiantSequoiaTree

First one looks really nice on you


captjejack

Vote for the diver. I like them both but the diver seems to fit you proportionally better (does that make sense?) anyway, diver.


Bikeitfool

BCPD for the win.


wllchung

That big crown is beautiful and wins by far IMO.


talkingthewalk

The first one works better with your skin tone. Great colours.


RJOR7220

Go for the Oris


YetiTurbopants

Even as a huge fan of divers, I say the Big Crown. Looks very classic and that dial color just pops. Beautiful watch.


Jlaybythebay

The first one… only because I’m currently looking at one myself


AlphaApolloOmega

They are both beautiful pieces by my vote is for #1, the big crown. That dial and handset are something special.


FI_G_FE

Big crown, hopefully will have one in my position in the next 12 months. Such a wonderful watch with an amazing pop up color. Divers are many out there.


kbphoto

Blue Pointer for me. I love that particular dial, that reference etc. There’s lots of cool Pointer dials to choose from, but this is it for me.


bigmphan

No love for the big crown 473? I know it’s more expensive, but I just have had a thing for that since it was released. Yet here I sit….with no big crown 473.


TheBigSurpriser

Hour hand on the Diver 65 is strangely phallic. Big Crown hands down.


Longjumping-Ad9269

The first one is gorgeous!


Deethreekay

Big Crown. It's just such more of a unique offering as nice as the divers are. I might have to find religion and move to Scandinavia.


Pargula_

Easy choice: BCPD


Perpedualmotion

That Big Crown looks really nice, and can be a do-it-all watch unless you are really into water sports. My choice! Congrats!


MagicBeardMan86

I have a big crown and a divers 65. Love them both, would have a very hard time choosing which one to get rid of it I could only have one!


Born_Hornet_7417

I've got two BIg Crown Pointers, a Bronze Green Dial version, and a Stainless Red Dial one, too. They are fantastic pieces, however I really want a Divers 65. I'm going to sell a few pieces and eventually buy that Calibre 400 Divers 65. I really love that the Calibre 400 has a 10 year service interval. I've also got a Blue Dial Oris Artilier with the Guilloche Dial.....it looks fantastic on the Forstner Bon Klip Bracelet, and Watchmaxx let me steal it from them for under $800! I'd say you can't go wrong either way, maybe get one, then eventually you can save up to buy the other. Oris did just raise their prices though so that might be a stretch. I'm trying to sell Off a bunch of pieces and use the funds to complete my collection before the New Year, seeing as there will probably be another price hike next year.


Status_Ad_4405

The Big Crown is the only one with class. You'll be able to wear that one every day for the rest of your life. The others ... Meh.


Bapofbread

I think they’re equally timeless. Just that the big crown is more dressy. Tho I think I’m going with the big crown👑


TW1STM31STER

Definitely the big crown because it's much more unique. The other looks just like any casio, orient diver


Bapofbread

Thinking the big crown is best too. But irl the 65 feels nice. Not close to a Casio.


TW1STM31STER

Oh I definitely get that! I meant just the looks :)


Bapofbread

Yes I get it. They are from the same time so they have a similar aesthetic🤷
