Three dials never seen from Oris are at hand: Blush Pink, Aegean Blue, and Seafoam Green. The dials are what’s new, though, so let’s chat about them. Despite its size (although the smallest diameter Aquis, it remains 12.5mm thick), the case is as functional as ever: a screw-down crown helps ensure 300m of water resistance and the unidirectional bezel features relief markings previously found on Aquis Date Relief models.
These watches, though, are not limited and the offerings for the smallest Aquis case option, currently limited to one model (with the Upcycle dial). The new Oris Aquis Date 36.5mm features the now-classic Aquis case design that the brand has used for seemingly innumerable LEs: big round lugs with an integrated bracelet (with a foldover clasp and diver’s extension), screwed-on crown guards, double-domed sapphire, an oversized bezel, and a mid-case that expands as it approaches the wrist. No such association exists here, though, so you’re free to imagine whatever you’d like. Recently, Oris released the Aquis New York Harbor Limited Edition with a striking green mother-of-pearl dial, though admittedly the association with the NYC waterway made the dial reminiscent of the murky waters in the harbor. The release expands the brand’s 36.5mm Aquis offerings and its mother-of-pearl dials. Conceived entirely in-house by the independent Swiss watch company’s skilled engineers, it offers elevated levels of anti-magnetism and a five-day power reserve, and comes with a 10-year warranty and 10-year recommended service intervals.Oris is hitting two birds with one stone (or three stones, rather) with its Geneva Watch Days release of a trio of Oris Aquis Date 36.5mm models with mother-of-pearl dials. That’s what we mean by the joy of mechanics. Oris Calibre 400 Series sets the new standard in automatic mechanical watchmaking. But the simple pleasure of owning one and seeing it work makes life that much more enjoyable.
Because if there’s one thing our watches have to do, it’s bring a smile.
Whether we’re looking at a Ferris wheel with its open workings, or a mechanical watch movement through a case back, it warms us to see how things work. In our digital, connected, touch-sensitive world, the joy of mechanics has taken on new meaning. This new movement was conceived entirely in-house and uses a twin barrel concept and more than 30 non-ferrous and anti-magnetic components to meet the demands of our modern life. 41.5mm stainless steel case, automatic in-house Calibre 400 movement with date function, green dial.Ĭreated by Oris for today's world citizen, the Oris Calibre 400 sets the new standard with an anti-magnetic automatic movement, a five-day power reserve and a 10-year warranty.
