Congratulations

I assume the outer ring and the red tip hand is used to indicate the day?

Very nice looking dial

I run into the same problem on the forum from time to time too. Tey refreshing the page or maybe opening from a different browser.

I never have owned a bronze watch, but I find the patina process fascinating. Keep us posted on what happens to yours. Maybe another bronze owner will chime in.

I know it’s minor, but I love the font of the number “4” on this watch. Sort of Art Deco.

That would be cool to see if anyone has one. Otherwise I will try to post photos of mine from time to time on the forum.

Love Oris. I’ve been eyeing a 65 for a while.
