Sunday Afternoon Drinks with a Vintage Oris

I'm not usually a fan of chrome plate on vintage watches because it usually doesn't age well... but this piece is an exception:  an Oris Caliber 60 tank in "Pure Nickel Chrome" (marked inside back cover) with a whopping 4 jewels from circa late 1940's.  I found the accompanying one-piece vintage nylon strap at a thrift store.  Measuring 24.5 x 37.4 mm without the crown, it wears quite well with the 17mm military-style strap and matching chrome buckle.
