Oris Audi Sport GMT Watch Hands-On

With its attractive all steel-toned dial, it was a success that this year is followed-up by the Oris Audi Sport GMT which is not a limited edition.Based on the larger Artix collection of racing-inspired timepieces, the Oris Audi Sport GMT’s brushed “matte silver” dial and applied lume-filled hour markers are both distinctive and very legible. I also find the dial to be rather attractive, given the similarity in all the tones. Oris does a good job at keeping reflectivity levels down and the raised inner portion of the dial keeps the watch from looking boring.

As expected, Montblanc’s tribute is spot on and at its core, the?Montblanc 1858 Automatic is actually quite easy to love. However, the
