A chic sports watch that can be worn in all circumstances. A 39.7 mm case that I preferred to the iconic Speed whose case was too bulky for my taste. This Omega is for me the model to have in your collection. I preferred its sword hands as well as the shape and size of its case and its horns. Pleasant proportions, it sits perfectly on the wrist. The caramel leather strap on a pin buckle is very comfortable to wear. You will have understood me, huge crush on this First.

FIRST OMEGA IN SPACE

A diameter of 36 mm associated with a bronze case and an original almond green dial, it didn't take more for me to fall for this Big Crown. I particularly appreciate the patina that the case takes over time; it gives it an even more retro tone. And its light green dial differentiates it from the other models in the range and goes really well with the bronze. The only downside: the leather strap is not suitable for small wrists.

ORIS BIG CROWN BRONZE

Passionate about the brand for a long time, I fell in love with this Chronoris. The shape of its case, its extremely well-finished and comfortable bracelet, its vintage and sporty style. The assets that I like combined in one model; I could only buy it. Its caliber is a robust and precise Sellita. It is a shame that this Chronoris is out of collection; perhaps it will reappear with the new caliber!

CHRONOR'S MOUTH 

I have always been a big fan of Grand Seiko, both for their polishing and their incredible finishes. Poetry is anchored in most of their models with sumptuous dials. The opening and excellent welcome of the Grand Seiko Vendôme boutique convinced me to take the plunge and buy it. And I don't regret it! I chose a Spring Drive to marry the best of both worlds (between automatic and quartz). The only negative point is that I find that the bracelet is not in line with the rest of the model. The buckle is not high enough quality and it remains a little too simple for my taste.

I first discovered the Black Bay in its 41 version (ETA movement) but I found it too imposing and too thick for my wrist. When the release of this 58 was announced with its reduced diameter, its "so-called" manufacture movement and its reduced thickness, I immediately rushed to the store! I also appreciated the aesthetics of the model; in particular its black dial matching its bezel with golden touches and its small red triangle. Its steel bracelet is very well finished but, the only downside is that it lacks a micro adjustment for the watch to be perfect.

Tudor Black Bay 58

A watch that I particularly like. A vintage spirit combined with a touch of modernity. Its bronze fluted bezel combined with its blue dial gives this Big Crown all its personality. Its 36 mm size is ideal. I liked the originality of the pointer date (date indication). An emblematic watch for the house of Oris. A piece of history on the wrist.

I'm driving my Formula Ford. I arrive at the entrance to the steep slope on the Spa circuit, a quick glance at my Oris ChronOris to know the time I have left before victory ✌️...

I raise my head... hard return to reality, I'm at the office and I still have 2 hours of work left. The only consolation is that my Oris chronOris is uncompromising on the time. Its sw200-1 caliber is no joke. To pass the time, I can always look at its orange second hand reminiscent of the needle of speedometers from the 70s/80s. Unless I linger on its black dial, smooth at its ends like the track, or with the central graining that evokes asphalt. The brushed case typical of the seventies, with its polished sides, serves as a rearview mirror, I can see who is coming behind me.... ola it's my boss... At work, but first, let's wash our hands. Damn, I drowned my Oris ChronOris under the tap, phew, luckily it is water-resistant to 100m. The golden hour and minute hand indicates to me on a well-graduated railway that it is almost time to leave. This ChronOris is definitely at home everywhere. On the track, at the office or on the weekend...

You will have understood, this watch inspires reverie and an era made of beautiful human conquests.... Small specificity, it is the Movember model, an association working in the field of men's health...
