Fellow WISs, I present to you my Oris Titan Chrono. I have never worn this watch while I have been a member of 3T. Let's just say it met with an unfortunate accident involving a toddler on a high chair and a granite floor. Anyway, here she is back from a complete overhaul and, boy, how I have missed her!

Nice! Happy ending so, enjoy! The red/black tones give a + to the watch. Had an Oris TT1 blue before but flipped it: Bezel was very thin... Yours has a thicker bezel  |

Thanks Will. Yes, the bezel is about 3 mm tall and 5 mm wide and it grips quite well because of the shape of the case also.  |

What parts was changed/repaired on it? |

The part of the movement relating to the bottom / 12 hr counter. The hand was sheared on impact and the movement misaligned. |

Nah, just some superficial scratches - no major dents or anything. |

Yup, and I learnt my lesson. Now I have a G-Shock I give the kids to play with! |

Congrats on getting the Oris Titan Chrono back in the lineup Khronos!!! Oris builds a heck of a great quality timepiece IMO! I've got a small seconds (black dial, orange lume version), and it is just a great quality built piece for sure...all the way down to the small details. Enjoy giving this one some wrist time! |

Thank you very much. I totally agree. I only own the one Oris but I have friends who sing the praises of their Oris watches and they are not even into timepieces. Good quality just shows! |

If I do not mistake, Fricker was(or is still?) making Oris cases... |
