Oriosa Chronograph Wristwatch

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Chase Hattan Watches

The Oriosa Chronograph – not a lot is known about this watch or the manufacturer Oriosa, Swiss made and using the Incabloc shock protection system. More than that is hard to establish.
 
Why have we brought this watch into stock? Need we answer that? Just look at the beautiful natural tropical dial and the way it has aged just perfectly. A chocolate brown colour with pitting to the bottom left and yellow / cream colour to the baton hour markers. Quite simply the dial is stunning.
 
This Oriosa is thought to be circa 1960’s
 
Running at -20 seconds per day with amplitude of 349 – it is running exceptionally well for a watch of its age.
 
36mm stainless steel case that shows some age and wear as you would expect. Manual wind movement using the incablock shock protection system and 17 jewels. Chronograph functions that work as they should.
 
Our View – Aged to perfection!
