Yes, I went to school in New Orleans, and it's Mardi Gras time, but instead of, "Throw me somethin', mister!" this thread is to "Show me somethin', mister!" I'll be herding cats here on the Oris Forum, and I thought it might help to find out where we stand. Have an Oris? Let's see it! Want an Oris? Show us what you like! Let's take a little inventory. ;D At the moment I have one, a TT1 Diver with the blue patterned dial. I posted this pic before - I'll try to get some better shots (and maybe a review) soon: As for my wish list, I have been very attracted to these two: XXL Full Day (Discontinued ) (Pic from TMK at PMWF) Dizzy Gillespie LE (Pic from Jorge at TZ)

Beautiful Flight Timer! I have always wondered - do you have any trouble with the time zone crown digging into your wrist?

I have just the one - but it goes through an identity change when I swap the strap. THAT, my friend, is a beautiful watch! I have a gold Hamilton with a similar case design, but I haven't seen that Oris. That has just landed on my short list!

Hey Mr Tiggercat I think Pacific Chrono has a Hamilton like that too. He occasionally posts a picture of it in the General Forum on wrist check days Wonder if it's the same watch? See ya ZIN

There were a few dial designs using this case in the late '90s. This one was bought new from an AD in 2002 but I think it is a '98 model.

Beautiful Flight Timer! I have always wondered - do you have any trouble with the time zone crown digging into your wrist? Thanks Tiggercat, Fortunately the 2nd zone crown does not dig into the wirst/hand. In fact, for it's size and design, it is very comfortable to wear. Rick.
