Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 29mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 29 mm case suggests

Oris Big Crown Pointer Date 29mm measures 35.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 29 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.22 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 97% of the 8,093 watches in this database and shorter than 97% of the 66 Oris watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 40 mm (1.57 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 48 mm (1.89 in) it starts to look compact. Below 35.5 mm (1.40 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 11.4 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 33% of the watches with a listed thickness.
