Kings day in the Netherlands

Hi Crunchers, today is celebrated the king's day in the Netherlands, and everyone is wearing orange 🧡.

This Oris that I purchased recently would have been the perfect watch for the occasion, but unfortunately I had to send it for servicing. There were too many things that weren't right. It was an impulse buy, and even though I love its looks, I wouldn't have bought it if I knew how much it was going to cost me. I am looking forward to get it back after service and fall in love with her again. It is not a regret buy just yet.

Doxa 300T in orange is the king of orange dial dive watches. History doesn’t lie. Nice looking Oris by the way 👍

Bulova's Oceanographer (Devil Diver) in orange might be an option as well

Ha, King's Day and orange! I have a story.

My wife and I won the "Best Dressed" (and a bottle of Champagne) at the Orange Party on board our cruise last month on Holland America's Nieuw Amsterdam. I bought the suit and her dress & shoes just for the occasion.

I also made sure to point out to the crowd that I was also wearing an orange watch, this one:

I love your ORIS, it's beautiful!
