First big purchase for me. I had never spent more than €1,200 on a watch and now I'm spending €3,000 more. I try it on and feel its lightness, its simple sophistication. I'm sure of my choice! On my wrist, I'm charmed by its comfort, its finesse to slip easily under shirts and its simple and readable dial. The days go by and I make an observation: the drift is "huge". They sell a precision of -3/+5 sec/day and I'm on average at +14/+15 :o A quick search reassures me because it seems that the "factory" settings are a bit approximate. Back to my AD who sends it for servicing and two months later, I get it back "adjusted to perfection". After 3 days of use, I notice "better": we went from a drift of +15 to one of -12... Seriously what... The watch had to return to Switzerland to be adjusted because the "experts" are there and here is the result: a watch less precise than an Orient Bambino at 250€... Well, you will have understood, my opinion on the movement is negative. Otherwise the rest of the watch is good even if there are two other points that bother me: - first point: their titanium marks extremely quickly. I wore the watch for 3 weeks in total, paying attention to it, but I feel like I worked on a construction site when I am an optician, the bracelet is so scratched. - second point: they are not the only ones but why didn't they put a half-link?! I don't have an ideal position. In short, first mixed experience with Oris but I'm waiting to see the feedback from the after-sales service to see if they can raise my esteem. But €4,200 for a watch that marks as quickly as Swatch's bioceramic, with the same precision and possible drift difference as an NH35, it's very expensive... To be continued...
