All Oris watches have either a manual wind or an automatic movement and they come in various styles including pilot, motorsport, dress, and dive watches.

While the dive watches tend to be quite large, the dress watches are more refined, and the pilot and motorsports watches are somewhere in between.

Whichever Oris you choose, you’ll be getting a quality watch, often at around a quarter of the price of something like an Omega.

Choosing the right Oris

Look for ….
<ul>
 	<li>Scratches and dents on the case, bezel and bracelet.</li>
 	<li>Excess wear in the bracelet.</li>
 	<li>Bad or over polishing which distorts the case edges.</li>
</ul>

Check the condition

A watch with box and papers or even a Full Set is a nice thing to have. It can also increase the investment value of your watch when you come to sell it. Of course this works both ways and therefore buying a watch with box and papers or a Full Set will increase the cost.

For more information see our article on <a href="https://www.oakleighwatches.co.uk/what-do-we-mean-by-a-full-set/">‘What do we mean by a Full Set?’</a> and <a href="https://www.oakleighwatches.co.uk/investment-watches-an-expert-guide/">‘Investment Watches: An Expert Guide’</a>

Do I need the Box and Papers?

For absolute confidence, we would always advise you ask an expert and/or buy from a reputable seller.
