Yes, beautiful Oris! That design is only 80 or so years old so it probably wont go out of style anytime soon.
Nothing really to think about in terms of upkeep. Don’t drop it or bang it. Don’t go swimming with it or anything, that will ruin the leather and a 50m watch isn’t really designed for the water.
In 5-7 years you’ll probably need a service. It’s a Sellita movement so any competent watchmaker can service it.

Graduating with PhD in comp neuro next year. I just did a week long internship at MBB to check out consulting, which I loved but ultimately will not be accepting my offer for life considerations (my wife also works at MBB and we have young children). It was amazing getting a sense of what the work actually comprises.

Are there any similar day-long or week-long internship programs for data science? Would love to test it out for a little bit to see what I like/dislike.

I think tools like BP and UiPath will be irrelevant in a few years. They deliver nowhere near the value that consulting firms declare imo.

New acquisition over the weekend - White Birch Spring Drive. Couldn’t be more thrilled - the dial catches the light in all sorts of way, at dinner it even took on an orange hue and looked like fire. The sweeping seconds hand is mesmerizing. 100% Seikopath

Sometimes I feel like this watch is just too versatile - I’ve had it for four years and still want to grab it out of the box every day. When I wear other watches I find myself regretting not wearing the GMT. Anyone else have this experience with one watch in their collection?
