FS: STUNNING Vintage ORIS ChronOris Racing CHRONOGRAPH

Oris Star CHRONORIS “Racing” Chronograph
c. 1970 Vintage
Superb ALL-ORIGINAL Condition!

For sale is this very rare all-original “Racing” version of the famous ChronOris one-pusher chronograph introduced in 1970. Oris developed its own in-house movement for this watch, mating it to a Dubois Dépraz chronograph module. This ChronOris is in fabulous condition, including the original Oris folded steel bracelet. This racing ChronOris features a black outer tachymeter bezel, and an inner minutes counter bezel, which rotates via the “crown” at 3:00. This inner rotating bezel allows the timing of events up to one hour in length. At the 4:00 postion is the normal Oris-signed crown operating the setting of hands, setting of the date (no quick-set), and winding.

The condition of this 40 year-old racing chronograph is stunning, perhaps one of the finest still in existence.

Specifications:

…38mm x 42.5mm polished stainless steel case in excellent original condition.
…Original Racing dial featuring checkered flags and an orange rotating minutes counter.
…Black tachymeter outer bezel.
…Screw-down caseback.
…Lume on hands still glows faintly.

…Oris-engraved 17-jewel Cal. 725 with Dubois Dépraz chronograph module.
…Chrono and time functions operate flawlessly.
…Keeps accurate time.
…Original Oris-signed bracelet is rolled stainless steel with locking clasp, in excellent condition.
…No box or papers.
