That Oris does not look like one I have seen? Which model is it? How old is it?

BC4 Chrono. Designed to be a "pilot's style" chrono. It sits large on the wrist and is quite heavy. I do like it, but must confess I wasn't thrilled when it frist arrived. It has grown on me since. I do like it, the functions work perfectly, and it keeps good time. The only down side really is the bracelet adjustment is limited to a "half link" for fitting the bracelet, much like many more expensive brands, but I just don't get why all bracelets don't have adjustable extentions like Breitling and the rest.

Thanks! Is this still a model in production? I will have a look at the Oris lineup when I get a chance.

Yes. I got mine through amazon at a cost of about $1000, but that seemed to bee a fluke and they are lsited there now at about $1300.
