Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403vsTissot Gentleman Open Heart

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 is praised for its 120-hour power reserve and anti-magnetic properties, with reviewers noting its simplified design and vibrant blue dial. Owners highlight the smooth winding feel of the in-house Calibre 403 movement, which features twin barrels. However, some owners report minor time-setting issues, and the 50-meter water resistance is considered underwhelming by one reviewer, who also notes the deer leather strap's clasp scratches easily. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 highly for its impressive power reserve and value proposition.

Owners widely praise the Tissot Gentleman Open Heart for its versatile dressy-sporty aesthetic and elegant sunburst dial finish, with one owner preferring its less shiny blue dial compared to other versions. The watch offers excellent fit and bracelet adjustability, and its modified Powermatic 80 movement achieves COSC-level accuracy of -3 to +5 seconds/day, though the seconds hand movement is slightly less smooth at 6 movements per second. However, one owner reported the watch arrived non-functional, requiring a return due to an inoperable movement. On balance, owners rate the Tissot Gentleman Open Heart highly for its aesthetic appeal and accurate timekeeping, despite a reported instance of a faulty movement.
