Oris’ latest ProPilot x Calibre 400 is a Modern Classic

Arriving in 3 distinctive colors (salmon, blue and gray), the newest ProPilot from Oris adds an engaging touch to a classically minimalist pilot watch. From its titanium ridged bezel to its ‘just-right’ size of 39mm and 12mm thick, the ProPilot x Calibre 400 will certainly feel substantial yet streamlined on the wrist.

The Oris ProPilot is a robust and technical piece of watchmaking, with its multi-piece titanium construction and sapphire glass protection (sapphire and anti-reflective glass top and see-through sapphire glass on the case back). The ridged patterned lines running across the bezel provides a strong, angular look that imitates the aesthetic of a jet turbine. Keeping the watch together is a titanium bracelet that again features a strong, angular aesthetic. The bracelet links alternate between smaller central links overlaid on top of a primary medium link which aims upward, creating the impression of a set of wings. The bracelet clasp again reinforces this aeronautical theme, mimicking the buckle of a plane’s seatbelt.

Utilizing the revolutionary in-house Calibre 400 movement, the latest ProPilot sets the bar high for mechanical watches due to its 5-day power reserve (proudly displayed on the dial), high anti-magnetism resistance. The brushed metal matte finishing on the movement gives off a rugged impression, but the hardware is anything but. The Calibre 400 beats along at 28,800 bph, with 21 jewels that allow everything to run smoothly. The 10-year warranty on the movement seals the deal in terms of the ultimate combination of value and performance.
