it actually worked, but only with calling the reset function manually
once.
try this:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar tj/last-buffer-tick nil)
(make-variable-buffer-local 'tj/last-buffer-tick)
(defun tj/new-buffer-ticks-p ()
(let ((curr-tick (buffer-modified-tick))
(last-tick tj/last-buffer-tick))
(setq tj/last-buffer-tick curr-tick)
(and last-tick (< last-tick curr-tick))))
(defun tj/reset-view-mode ()
(run-with-timer 0 (* 5 60)
(lambda ()
(when (tj/new-buffer-ticks-p)
(view-mode t)))))
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'tj/reset-view-mode)
#+end_src
