1. Big Crown Pointer Date 80th Anniversary Edition

A classic 40mm watch in Oris’ catalogue with a beautiful dark green and bronzed palette, the Oris Big Crown will surely turn heads. The unique bronze material will ensure that this timepiece will age like no other due to the material’s susceptibility to patina. To compliment this the Big Crown looks and feels like a rugged explorer’s watch with its soft brown leather strap (sustainably sourced and produced) and compass indices. Subtle, brilliant touches include the red seconds hand and visible rotor of the Oris 754 movement at the back of the timepiece.

2. Aquis Date [blue-dialled 41.5mm model]

The 41.5mm Oris Aquis Date is a classic diver’s watch with a bold blue face and an in-house automatic calibre movement. Oris describes their movement as “highly accurate, highly anti-magnetic, [and] ‘highly reliable” and it comes with all the guarantees to back it up. This ‘new standard’ Oris have set includes both a 10-year warranty to match its recommended service interval and a massive five-day power reserve to keep your wrist ticking daily. This power reserve ensures that even if you put the watch down for a day or two, it will still run properly without the need to “re-wind” it.

3. Aquis Date [green-dialled 43.5mm model]

The larger Oris Aquis Date has a 43.50mm stainless steel case and matching metal strap. The timepiece features a beautiful color-shifting green face and bezel, intermixing various shades of green throughout. The key highlight of this timepiece is its Calibre 400 movement, which contains 30 anti-magnetic components and surpasses the ISO 764 enhanced anti-magnetic standard. In addition, it contains a sturdier rotor system than those typically found in automatic watches. Instead of a ‘ball-bearing’ system it utilizes an innovative ‘low-friction slide bearing’ system which makes it less susceptible to damage and breakage over time.

All three of these Oris top sellers are available now on their web shop or at Oris dealers worldwide.
