What to know
The Oris Star Edition marks 60 years since the original Oris Star appeared in 1966. Its 35mm steel case adopts the earlier watch’s rounded barrel shape, domed plexiglass crystal and restrained grey dial, producing a deliberately compact alternative to contemporary sports watches.
The historical reference is more than cosmetic: Oris introduced the Star after successfully challenging rules that had restricted Swiss manufacturers’ use of lever escapements. Today’s edition uses automatic calibre 733-1, beating at 4Hz with 41 hours of reserve and an instantaneous date. The screwed caseback is specially engraved, water resistance is 50 metres, and reference 01 733 7813 4151-Set is priced at €1,800 in Belgium.
