Do those date hands jump to the date? Or slowly get there?

They jump at midnight. Same as with a date wheel.

I wasn't sure before I got it tbh. Now I've owned it for a while I much prefer it to a date window.

Today I’m wearing the beast.

An Oris pro diver.

I’ve owned it for 2 years, doesn’t come out often and at 52mm it’s the largest I have.

Very well made and the box is interesting too.

Nice, I think you'd need some extra buoyancy if diving with it though. smile

Yes! With that you'll got to 1000 feet whether you want to or not

It's a lovely looking watch.... I like the 'pointer date' system, but, as I mentioned, I've never owned one. It is a glass back?

It is yes. Although the movement is fairly standard to look at (think it's an ETA). Nice red Oris rotor though.

Not worn this one for a while. 2005 Ltd Ed Chopard Mille Miglia Grand Turismo XL.

The strap still smells of Vanillasmile

I am pretty confident that you weren't 300m under the sea.

Giving my new addition an outing today.

Bought on Sunday. Limited Edition 441/500. I love the retro branded pieces so this will sit nicely alongside my Monaco, Monza, Silverstone & Autaviabiggrin

Tudor Pelagos, 2 liner

Had it over 3 years now, wore it almost every day and still love it.

As my other thread suggests I am looking to add a second piece, but logically speaking the Pelagos is everything I need it to be.
