Oris Classic

Exactly what the name says: Oris's simple, affordable entry-level dress watch. The Classic keeps it minimal, a thin round case, a clean dial with applied markers, and a date, in steel on a bracelet or leather. It comes in a spread of sizes for men and women and is usually automatic, though smaller pieces can be quartz, so check the individual watch. There's no complication or gimmick here, and that's the point: it's one of the most accessible ways into a genuine Swiss automatic from an independent brand.
