Next acquisition Big Crown.
This will be my next purchase as I have the Aquis GMT and a 65 and feel like this is the next step, will then have to work on getting the Artelier moon phase. Would love to know how people have got on with this model and if they change the strap out? Cheers Cruncher's!

Nice choice Keith, I like how your thinking! That will be a beautiful lineup, post pics as you go!! My fave was always the ProPilot...do you have/plan to have one?
I have the big crown pointer date with the red dial, and change out the strap all the time (see my WRUW feed).
My only real complaint is that the dial looks cheap to me. It's just painted on, red and white, totally 2-D. I think that gives a cheap feel to an otherwise awesome watch.
I'll also note that I really liked the bracelet. Whatever the name of the configuration of links it feels really good on the wrist, and leads to joyful fidgeting for me.

Cheers my friend! Happy to help??? Haha
Love Oris BC. Did switch out the black strap for aftermarket suede.
Both absolute fire! Love the cream one classic always quietly in style. Very very nice watch that.
I have one. It has the softest leather strap I have ever had on a watch. No plans on swapping it out.

Thank you. It is really small! Like 34mm I think. But a keeper. It’s my first “real” watch from when I got engaged almost 30 years ago.

Never sell it! Even if you just look at it! Haha I have a watch that's my granddad's and about 30mm I never wear it but would never part with it. Like they say style is temporary class is permanent! Cheers
Love the strap it came with. So comfortable
