Vintage Oris 17 Jewels Shock Proof Manual Wind Watch

This is a vintage Oris wristwatch featuring a tonneau-shaped stainless steel case with a polished finish. The watch is equipped with a dark navy blue dial that displays a mix of Roman numeral markers at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, interspersed with triangular indices. Notably, there is a red and white cross logo at the 12 o'clock position above the 'ORIS' branding. The dial text includes '17 JEWELS', 'SHOCK PROOF', and 'SWISS MADE' at the bottom. The handset includes luminescent sword-style hour and minute hands and a thin white sweeping seconds hand. It is mounted on a black leather strap with embossed crocodile grain and blue contrast stitching. The overall condition shows visible wear consistent with a 'Frankenwatch' or refurbished vintage piece common in the secondary market; the printing on the dial appears slightly uneven, and there are hairline scratches on the acrylic crystal and metal casing. The crown is a flat, ridged style. While inspired by vintage Oris designs, the specific dial layout and cross logo suggest a contemporary refurbishment using a mixture of parts.
