For those of you who know this watch or have been looking for one, you will know this is a rare sale! Seldom seen on the resale market!
From one Oris fan and collector to another, I am putting this Oris Chronoris GP 70 LE up for sale.
This is the Limited Edition of 1970 pieces released by Oris, and was completely sold out upon launch.
A very cool piece, and in my view an iconic and collector's watch. I bought it from a Collector who kept it in a Safe and I myself never wore it. I can only see some light scuff marks on the clasp, which must be from the trying and wearing to admire. Please excuse the dust and fingerprint marks.
Full set with complete box, leather case, papers/certificate, tags etc. And of course the racing gloves! MSRP for this piece is US$3995.
I paid quite high for this as this was practically an unworn/LNIB piece and a complete set. I don't think there are many LNIB pieces around, and even if there are, many collectors are not willing to sell them.
This is a very rare opportunity for someone here to grab this piece in mint condition.
My price CAD$2850 nett takes it all - Free tracked/express shipping - Please email me for faster response.
Paypal, Wire/Interac transfers also accepted as payment options.

I have plenty of excellent references on WUS (same handle).
There is a limit to the number of pictures I can add, so if you need to view more pictures, please email me.
Thanks,

From Oris press release :
It may look every inch the retro 70s classic, but the new
Limited Edition Chronoris is packed with modern features,
just like a current F1 car. The tachymeter scale on the dial
ring, the chronograph function and the date display remain:
classic and unchanged.
But this version has more power. A new movement with
small second and hour counter, a larger case (42.50mm
compared with the 40mm of its orange cousin) and two
chronograph displays on the dial – including a ten minute
countdown – appear this time in British Racing Green.
The new Chronoris also boasts a centralised second time
zone, symbolised by the arrow hand. It’s something they
could only have dreamed about 30 years ago!
