- Hands on with a fantastic dive watch! A watch that truly made me so happy and have hope in the world again! The Oris Aquis New York Harbour Limited Edition made in partnership with The Billion Oysters Project. Honestly, I loved this watch. This has become my new favourite Aquis AAAAND I learned, the 41.5mm Aquis fits me just fine!
Anyways, this video is just all my thoughts and feelings on this watch. :) I'd love to hear yours.

Ok a couple of things I need to clear up! 1. It is the Oris 733 movement in this watch :) not 722! Typo on my part haha. And I have to wear a vest because it is so dang cold in the garage where I film!
Haha. I am waiting for Winter when it is Britt in vest, scarf, winter hat and gloves 😂
A garage is for a car or bike NOT for a superstar TH-cam Queen…. Shame on you Watch Papi , take better care of your lady 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️

🙂👍
you have a nice name
I think we need more of these semi sponsored watch reviews. They’re fun light hearted and honest.
Oh thank you!! I’m so so glad it read that way as well! I just wanted this to be light hearted, honest and always…. FUN! 💕 You rock DHJ!
@@justmeeagainn I really don’t think that’s what’s happening but you’re entitled to your opinion
@@JW_Haze he’s just constantly, overly negative, some people are just like that, I’ve already told him we got no money or watches for any of this but he wants to live in his own bitter little world. 🤷🏻
@@justmeeagainn oh I wish I was getting free stuff! 😂 it’s a good deal tho! They obviously want more exposure for cheap… well free really! 😜 and I always need more watches for content but can remain objective because… well… it’s free!
@@watchpapi gotcha
Don't clam up over the integrated bracelet, the bracelet is so good you sea, you won't even mind them making it harbor to find straps that fit.
Boom 💥 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
BAHAHAH! so good to see someone shellabrate the art of puns!
My first watch into luxury watches was a green oris aquis, which I happen to be wearing today. Its one of my favourite brands.
I’m an incorrigible snob however I would certainly stop by the window and have a look at that green one
shellfish attitude was alright Cheers!
😂
I love that watch but I would buy it and it would just sit in my watch winder as I’m struggling to find time for any of my other watches other than my Omegas or Rolex, and the only oyster I care about is the Perpetual types lol 😂
TEAM GRINGA 4 LIFEEE!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
YASSSS!! ✨✨ I’m team High Tower for life! 😜💕✨
Britt: your Rubber comment was so spontaneous...very you 😅... I share the same spontaneously situations with my wife so often 😂im used to them...
Oris is awesome. I own a diver 65, I bought my son an Aquis GMT, and we bought a family member in Korea the Aquis LE supporting Han River cleanup. He was genuinely moved that a Swiss watchmaker even knows the Han River exists. You are crushing it, congratulations. And we wear vests all the time to stay warm - own it and ignore the naysayers!
Probably the worst thing I've ever eaten, is an Oyster,, 🤮,,
(just FYI 🤣)
Nice watch,, the fact that it's a nice shade of "sick green" would always remind me of the connection with oysters,, Rofl ,, 🤣,,, 😍
Bahahhha! Oh MY! You know! I’ve always been too scared to try oyster! 🙈 this hasn’t helped!
Loving the dad fit xD. But on a more serious note, great video Gringa!
I feel like some people give Oris a lot of eye rolls around their social and environmental initiatives but I don't get it. Why can't a company do positive things and make a lot of money? Big Oris fan.
Agreed! People are just so cynical these days!
My local Goldsmiths say Oris is good for the youngsters getting into watches.
Me personally, rather a Hamilton in that price range
I should send you my Oris Aquis with the Tungsten bezel and leather strap for a review! It’s pretty rare 😊
Excellent video Britt 🎉 obviously still watching 😅
😱😱 that sounds soooo cool!!! I’d never say no to having such a cool watch in!
Thank you so so much for this comment tho! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the vid! 💕
@@BrittPearceWatches have a look at my recent instagram post and let me know if you like it and I can send it over!
Out of interest who other (meaning watch brands) have asked you to wear and look at there watches ??
Gringa!!!! 35K SUBS!!!!!! 1K up in a week! Congratulations Britt, You earned it and I cannot wait to see where the Cult goes from here. Well you "Pearce'd" the opening pun through the heart. Better luck next time. HA. I do love the Aquis, except for the non standard strap/bracelets. I applaud Oris and their actions to raise money or awareness to good causes. I love the Wings of Hope connection. I am currently stuck between an Oris or a Nomos as my next addition, but Oris does have a slight lead in my head. If I can find the new Big Crown with the "Caliber 403" at my AD it will be mine.
CAN YOU BEEEELIEVE?!?! 35K?!?! 😱😱😱 absolutely out of this world! I never thought this weird little channel would grow this much! 😱✨ and I think we have the exact same opinion of Oris! I love the watches, I respect them so much for the awareness they bring! And I have very few complaints! 💕 just great watches!
Hahaha the Patron song 😂
It’s a BOP!
@@BrittPearceWatches can your merch come out already? Need a new mug. Or a shirt/ pullover/ cap.
5:23 Never EVER leave or abandon that fight. For fighting with it, you have my deepest respect!!
Oh thank you!!! Honestly, it is my reason to wake up in the morning! …. Oh and my husband. I guess I love him too 😜
“I don’t give a shit about oysters!” I love your honesty LOL
LOL! I wish I did! But I had literally never thought about oyster populations until reading this promo hahaha
@@BrittPearceWatches Makes two of us. At least we can thank Oris for educating us hahaha.
I just subscribed this week because Britt's outgoing, funny and "you don't know what she's going to say next" delivery is hilarious. So refreshing to see that you don't need a 3-piece suit presentation to love and appreciate watches. Plus, the commentary asides like "I don't give a shit about oysters" really brighten my day. I'll clam up now...
I normally dislike watches with proprietary lug designs but I really like this! Why does it have to be limited edition idk if I’ll be able to get one
Look out Britt making big money moves so happy for you gringa that oris reached out to you to lend you this watch great review love the over all look of this watch
Oris was my first Lux watch after a Rolex AD told me, "You don't want a Rolex Sub" when I asked to see one, leaving me at the counter he just walked away. After waiting awhile to see where he went, I left. 🤔 Still have the Oris, still works but hasn't been my best watch. The movement had an issue and after sending it back to Oris under warranty it was returned with the same problem. 😕 Finally took it to the local watchmaker a short bike ride from my house. He looked at it, took it all apart, called me and said he could order the part from ETA and have it fixed in 6 weeks for $xxx. He returned the watch and it's worked perfect ever since. 🤣Then I went off to Tudor land 🤣🤣🤣 Hilarious! 🤣🤣
iforgry to mentiom GC, the best rolex is the older model blue or blak dial datejust 36mm with fluted bezel, pres bbacelet with the latest version roman roman dial. this is the fact. no discussion allowed. cheers from n.y. (gc is your new name, GRINGA CAT)
Meh, great video as always HOWEVER
A - the hour hand looks like a n*b
B - lots of other brands do this type of charity stuff
C - its not altruism, they’re trying to sell something
D - the caseback seems to have 3 “plums” on the back
E - better watches for the money
F - they have got the mother of pearl for the dial…from the same creatures they’re trying to protect
G - Oysters are for eating
Other than that though… 😂😂😂
The video of today 🤦😄😄😄
Don't I like too the Aquis but I admire the work of Oris for the nature in the one of most healthiest states of the one richest country of the world (applauses)
I guess that invest in the environment of Bangladesh, Afghanistan or similar places as not glamorous.
I like the fact that they’ve released smaller versions with this mother of pearl dial.
I wish it was smaller. I got my wife a 37mm White RADO Captain Cook she loves but its prob her limit in size.... Great video and a beautiful Oris
Looks awesome. I want the rubber strap for my cherry dial but I can't pay £200+ for some rubber I'm just going to basically cut in half. 🤣
Dear Britt, thank you for showing us a video of Oris . I hope you make a review of the Oris big crown pro pilot date . And day date . Because I’m thinking of buying it . But I need your opinion . Thx
Initially I loved the look of the Aquis model range but like you disliked the ability to just swap out the bracelet for a different band and then ...... I tried one on the wrist... The Aquis cal 400 for some odd and crazy reason ended up on my wrist at the AD just to look at you understand and it was so comfortable and the dial was brilliant and I left the AD wearing it on my wrist... after paying for it of course. The upcycle was a very brave move and to a lesser extent was the Dat Watt but they made these watches both of which they should be commended. The Oyster Bay is another example of Oris putting its money where its mouth is, quite tempting.
hi GC, rolex, cartier, panerai due,oris, omega, and tudor are the only watches any one will ever need!!!!!!!!!! love kevin from n.y.
I actually thought at first this was recycled, too. With plastic specifically from NY harbour. -The green is very nice indeed
They are doing what Rolex, an actual tax dodging let's kid on we are a charity but we never ever disclose what we support, should be doing.
Great presentation Oris should have let you use the complete set bracelet and strap tool. The watch should have the 400 movement. Longer power reserve and 10 year warranty.
Oh my god!! You are so funny 🤣🤘🇿🇦
Maybe if you were talking about Rolex, you'd care more about Oysters ;P Badoom-Tss!
As much as I try to like the Aquis I just don't like how it looks on my wrist. It's not the size, but it just looks like all dial even with that bezel. I'm not sure why but it's just odd to my eye.
None of your subscribers are surprised you have got to the point where brands are offering you watches to review! Nice job too with a properly gorgeous piece. You must be getting close now to where your subscriber numbers are approaching the population of your home town. Start planning the video that marks that :)
We need to get an accurate up to date population number! Hopefully it’s not grown too much since 2016 (the number Britt keeps quoting 😅)
Oris is the most exciting brand in watches right now.
Whoa that's a drop dead gorgeous Oris! At 41mm, it's just the perfect size for boysters shellfies for instagram!
Isn’t it just!! 😍😍
Love the Aquis.......although not so sure about the green one, not my favourite colour.
Would have gotten it with a 43,5 mm. Lovely watch. Beautiful dial.
Sweet and sassy. Love this channel
I hope Laco and Stowa contact you too.I love their pilot watches.
Ouuu I’d love that!
Can't wait to have some Oysters Rockefeller when I return to NYC!
I was not an Oris fan until I saw this mother of pearl dial. Diving watch with a black dial is getting a bit boring now...
I like your singing at the end of the video. Oh yes the watch is great also. Cheers!
To be clear, this is a singing channel with a side of watches and NOT a watch channel with a side of singing 😜😂
Came here for the dope watch content...now i come here for the dope watch content, and Gringa's singing.
I'd love to see something about Oris Full Steel, there is hardly anything on the internet featuring it.
Great watch! My only comment is that the 38 hour power reserve could be a lot longer.
Gringa, I do love you dearly, but please please don’t fall for the charity hype from brands…..the bottom line is always profit…..🇬🇧
Ahhh definitely. But I’m a sucker for alllll hype! 🙈✨
@@BrittPearceWatches possibly that’s why we all adore you……🤩
I had never really been that interested in Oris watches until I watched this video. You do such an amazing job at reviewing watches. #BestWatchReviewerOnTH-cam I can’t wait for you to get in the octagon with Adrian 🤣😂
WHAAAAT!!! Thank you so so much! This is waaay too kind! 💕💕💕 this has officially made my day! And I think it is time that Adrian and I finally duke it out! 😜😂 COME AT ME ADRIIIIIAN!
@@BrittPearceWatches PS I also work for a church and I am also thankful that my wife makes more money than me so that I can buy fun watches. 😜
I have one. Love it. Thx for the vid!
Your puns were too funy hahahaha
U should try diver65 glow..its soo tiffany..i think u ll love it.
I live in New York and there were 9 Humpbacked whales spotted in the Hudson. I remember the Hudson as being a sewer. Far too dirty for whales. Oysters clean the water. I am not a fan of the watch, but I am interested in the 5 day power reserve movements of Oris.
i almost wanted to get this watch last week…………but im still holding back…till this video…
how much money goes to charity? percentage of sales, profits?
I really care about Oysters-Rolex Oyster cases that is………….
HahHa I kept thinking “how do I work a Rolex oyster into this?!” 😂
In a world of toxicity and negativity your bubbly sunny disposition brings a smile to my face, love this style of review and thats a beauty of a watch.
I'd also like to say your outro music is phenomenal!!!
I got my Aquis NY Harbour LE just a few days ago on 21st Sep. Just looking at the piece online made me enquire about it and see if it's available. I had enquired about the watch on a Monday and by Wednesday all the pieces across India had been sold (there were 2 pieces available but they had advance payments against them). The dealer tried contacting Oris to see if one can be sourced from the factory, but he was told that Oris had sold all pieces worldwide so no more could be made.
I had given up and thought no way I'm getting this and started looking at other brands. Then I get a call on Sunday from the AD that one of the pieces that had an advanced payment on it is available because the customer went for the Carl Brashear LE instead. I immediately paid for it then without ever seeing the watch. Such a relief when it arrived and I tried it on to see that it was a piece of beauty that fits perfectly on my wrist.
I only wished they went for a movement with a longer power reserve like the 798 or the 400. That’s the only thing I find lacking in the watch.
The dial was nice.
Love your videos...love Oris more and more...but the strap limitation is still a bummer for me :( i love NATO straps from time to time, love rubber bands from time to time and love some steel bracelets...i switch the straps on my Longines Hydroconquest and my Tudor BB all the time. Keep on the great word with the videos and greetings from Slovenia
Looks good in person - I saw it on a trip in Cali this week and pointed it out as a cool watch to my wife 😁 (Eduardo in Hyde Park Jewelers @ Fashion Island if someone is looking for it)
So Oris is trying to make oysters perpetual in NYC? 😝
PS love you Jermaine Clement esque ode to Patreons at the end 😂🙌
I have to say its a stunner..that dial is fabulous! all round a great piece
Rifht?! Love this watch!
03:04 nice shoes, just kidding…terrible. Socks and slides are a sin. BTW, thanks for the Oris review. I don’t own one, but I should.
😂😂😂
Britt, I love your reviews! This watch looks amazing on you.
More Teddy less singing 😂. Just joshing
That dial is incredible. Great review!
This is a great call out to Oris Rising. They seem to try harder in an honest way without taking themselves too seriously. And yet, this thing about oysters does make you think.
Congratulations on your new level of a watch reaction channel ❤🎊
Edit: That watch looks awesome 😎
So you wouldn't be shelling out for one .🤣
👏🏽👏🏽😂😂
Not only watch companies, but all companies should be more globally conscious over merely profit margins
Oh it’s so true!
The straps are usually inverted when you have a buckle clasp instead of a pin buckle because the clasp forms better to your wrist this way when closed
This one folds away, opposite of all the other deployants we have which fold towards us… it’s less comfy.
35k is amazing. Kind of want the cult of Gringa to stay small but if you can do this full time I’m here for it.
Right?!?! The cult is getting too big! I never saw it growing this much! 😱 but I am very close to being able to make this full time! Maybe after Christmas!
@@BrittPearceWatches congratulations on the recognition that you deserve. That would be awesome. Plus the brands are coming. Yes
Love the work, best of luck on your channel and your passion!
& Frankly I don’t give a shit about oysters😂 I’m glad somebody finally said it😂
LOLLL IT HAD TO BE SAID! Aint none of us woke up this morning caring about oysters.
Every word with an "a” or an "o” you say it funny
The New York Harbour looks fantastic on you. Oris has become one of my favourite brands! Just picked up the Oris 1917 , would love to see you do a review on it. Hahahahaha love the end part lol where you ramble on about sick days etc…
Man! I was surprised by just how much I loved this! WHAT A WATCH! I love it! And I will reach out to Oris RE: 1917😱 maybe I can get my hands on one!
Great video and quality editing.
Love this Oris, it’s my favourite of theirs - amazing MoP dial. Wish there were more dive watches with natural/stone dials.
My only concern, whilst I love the rubber strap on a dive watch, is I wish the brand wasn’t emblazoned all over it - this feels unnecessary and cheapens it for me. I feel it would’ve been better with a subtle texture on the rubber instead. (bit like an Aquanaut). Then I’d buy one in a heartbeat. But kudos to Oris. Great brand.
As to oysters, I’m a big fan. After your disappointing (but honest!) admission, next video - expect to see you in a “Oysters Matter” top!
Ugh. Oysters aren’t the only ones that matter. ALLLLL SEA LIFE MATTERS. 🙄😜😂💕💕💕 joking aside! I know what you mean about the strap! The heavy branding doesn’t bother me! But I definitely think it is divisive!
Hi 😎 No, I don't like this green, I like more the blue one. But, It's you, so thanks 😎🥳😅
Hahaha! Oh bless the blue is stunning isn’t it!!! I love it too!
Way to open up about this watch.
Great video, Brittany, thank you. I watched it on TV instead of phone to get a look at that gorgeous dial. Beautiful.❤. Unfortunately, I just can't get on board with the design. It's the lugs or something. That's a good thing, though. I don't need to be crushing on ANOTHER watch🤪
You know, the lugs throw me off too! But sweet Jesus is protecting you! 😂😜😜
love the colour, love the dial love Oris
Yet another dive watch. Ho hum.
Oh there is a lot of them isn’t there
That dial looks real nice, Britt. I’d like to own an Oris but they have too many cool watches for me to pick just one LOL.
Ouuu time to get a BUNCH OF ORIS’ 😜✨
I have an Oris on my wishlist. The Aquis is my favorite. I like the smaller multi-color dial version and think it would be the perfect summer watch on a white rubber strap.
Brit don’t shame oysters my son is an oyster x
It’s a good thing I actually like oysters Britt! Natural or Kilpatrick!🤤🤭 Oris needs to do a similar collaboration with our Aussie oysters from South Australia! Although a Oris “Coffin Bay” aquis doesn’t exactly inspire conservation!🤪 P.s. Probably the best oysters in Oz!👍🏼
You wouldn't fib about being ill would you, your boss would know! I do like the dial. Cool watch.
Ok! I’d lie to the church about being ill! 😜 but never gringa land! The algo loves regular uploads!
I’m in the minority and have never been a fan of the Aquis. This is by far my favourite version of the Aquis though the dial is awesome and I love the bezel, never been a fan of the shiny ceramic bezels on the original. Unfortunately the bezel play is terrible on the Aquis.
You know. It’s a fair one! Everything you’ve said is absolutely fair! 👏🏻💕
So glad I came across your page. You make the watch TH-cam world fun and that’s a great thing.
Whaaaat! This has genuinely made my day! 😭💕✨
I got one. Love it. Big fan of Oris.
Just bought one of these for my father as an anniversary gift. He's from New York and met my mother while he was a diving instructor so I thought it was fitting. If anyone is interested in this watch in the slightest I'd encourage you to try to see one in person. No picture, video, or social media post does that dial justice even in the slightest.
Great video as always!
Love the shellfish attitude 👌
Love this watch, but can't fully get over the old men's testicles on the caseback.
Still fully love you Brittany. And WP. (Man love though).
❤️🙌🏽😘
@@watchpapi 👊😘🍺⚽️🔨👙
Love their Carl Brashier
Now I'm wondering what tragedy happened to the oysters in NY to begin with. New research rabbit hole for me. Thankssss.
Hahaha it’s a great rabbit hole to go down!
