In recent years, more and more brands have been pumping out vintage-inspired watches, usually updated takes on their own heritage designs, and dive watches are no exception. At around $2,000, Oris and and Rado produce two of the best heritage reissue dive watches in the Diver Sixty-Five and the Captain Cook, both available in a variety of colors and sizes. In this video, we’ll take a detailed look at both of these old school dive watches, detailing each of their pros and cons as well as what aspects might make them the right (or wrong) watch for you.

If you go to 101M with the Oris just remember to hold your arm up.
And when you reach 201m with the Rado...you know what to do!🤣
Good one 😂
I have the 42mm Oris diver 65 black dial on a rubber strap and it's fantastic. I believe if you plan on going into water a rubber strap is the way to go. Also I may look into purchasing the bracelet to swap out since changing straps seems to be pretty simple.
My money with go to the Rado, personally. I think that concaved bezel just looks so unique.
@Jaxx Braylen Good for you.
@Jaxx Braylen yeah we dont give a shit
@@sin8901 WAD
Ceramic bezel, thinner, cheaper, better water resistance. I own neither but it seems like the Rado is a clear winner here if you like the styling of both equally!
Went with the green dial Rado, couldn't be happier. Stunning in person.
But you see the space between "a" and in hahah it's capta in
I’ve really been wanting one lately.
Rado definitely seems like a better option. Looks unique and that 80hr power reserve sounds amazing.
Mvmt: We cut out the middle man
Teddy Baldassaree: I am the middle man
And that is also BS. Macy’s sells mvmt so they’re full of shit
@@alevansebel it’s just a marketing ploy. An effective one, albeit quite deceitful
So more of these please! You were born for this! I have an aquis but I still pick Rado here and mostly because your vid shows how it pops so nicely. Thanks!
The Rado is just a flat out beauty!
Interesting idea, would love to see more versus episodes in the future.
He did one for the Seiko DressKX and Orient Maestro, and it was also excellent!
Great review Teddy. I just bought a pre-owned Oris 65 from Bob's Watches, so thanks for connecting me with them. Now I'm mulling over the Rado in ss or bronze, but I like the beads of rice bracelet, so I'll probably go with the ss. Will definitely purchase from your online shop.
Oris Divers 65 all day long. More prominent domed crystal, thinner bezel, wears closer to classic case size and narrower crown, which all speaks the vintage language, at least to me. Nice job on the review Teddy.
Could always go with the smaller Rado Captain Cook
I have both the exact same Rado in green and the original Oris Carl Brashear. You are absolutely right saying they are probably the best choices for this style at this price range. I love them both equaly for different reasons. Nothing more to add you cover everything. Great job as always!
your channel has become a certainly impressive one, I've followed for a few years and I just wanted to say that :)
Beautiful timepieces. I like how you compare the same price range. Love your videos
Having owned both at different times, imo, Rado is just better engineered overall with an exception of micro adjustments on the clasp. If I had the money to keep both, I would but if I have to choose one, I'd go with Captain Cook and this is coming from an Oris fan
I have the Oris sixty-five Bico
This is good info. For me, the Rado CC is a bit like the Seiko Sumo: highly unique case design. Still I would probably go for the Oris, but it's a toss up.
I would go for the Oris, totally love it. The Rado looks too funky to me. The Oris is quite classy.
The RADO with the oyster bracelet has micro adjustments plus it’s rated to 300 meters. It’s cheaper than the lower spec watch with the beads of rice bracelet rated at 200 meters.
What exactly does the lack of micro-adjustments mean for the Rado? If I get a Rado with the beads of rice bracelet is it not possible to resize it?
Wow, the Rado has all kinds of style. Very cool retro styling.
Teddy, I wish you had the capability to mark favorites. And again, you are soooo good at this.
Thank you, Eric! You’re too kind!
Still in love and love my Oris Divers 65 36mm in deep blue dial. I like the aesthetics more than the Rado.
I would go for the Rado! But now I’m looking for the Mido Ocean Star GMT, I wrote to you about this watch and Gabe responded that soon you will be a Mido AD so I’m waiting for you to get it from your store. Nice video, keep the good work my friend!
In England I couldn't get hold of the Mido
Just got the Captain Cook Burgundy. It’s an unusual choice for me but I really like it. Thanks for the video.
Hey Teddy... Great work as usual. Superb information density and so well articulated. As a late blooming 58 year old enthusiast here in Alberta, Canada, working my way up the horological food chain, I had a close look at these two pieces not long ago. I agree that a person could not go far wrong with either of these. Nevertheless, I ended up choosing the Tag Heuer Autavia, blue on stainless steel. It was a few dollars more, but I’m very pleased. I still want the Captain Cook though. I think it really pops, especially in green. I wonder if you might feature some Breitling product in the near-ish future. I would consume your thoughts voraciously. Thanks, and keep on rocking.
Two interesting watches for sure. My favorite is by far the Rado. I like more the beads of rice bracelet, the ceramic bezel and most important the power reserve of its movement.
That Oris 65 is such a beauty. I prefer the green dialed one without the date.
Great presentation , compelling arguments both ways .
I've never had the Captain Cook on wrist, but i did see it in a Jewellers window and it looked fantastic from that point of view. It actually really surprised me how much I liked it. I may one day try it on to make a true decision on a Rado.
Also I already own an Oris Aquis, that's why I would lean towards the Rado.
I have the Oris, So comfortable on the wrist.
Well I’m late, but I’m here. The intro was a real dose of reality
SPB053 vs Tudor BB 58 Navy. Different price points but very similar watches. Thanks for the content!!
Another great one Teddy
Captain Cook 37mm all the way!!! Gorgeous, full of soul, and virtually indistinguishable from the original. A beautiful, sublime recreation.
Looked at the Captain Cook yesterday and it is a great looking watch
Hey Teddy. Both watches are awesome, but definitely the Rado is a more complete diver watch. The size I think is perfect for the purpose, lug to lug makes it more wearable for different type of wrists, ceramic bezel, etc. Only thing I don’t like about captain Cook is the 21 mm bracelet width. Would love to see it on a 20 to make it more versatile.
I have the rado captain cook and it is an absolutely stunning watch.
Really interesting. as per usual I always learn something in your videos Teddy! The ISO rating for example. Besides the fact that almost no one actually dives with their dive watches, I think the exclusion of lume on the bezel of the Rado is a major faux pas. What strikes me about both really is how beautiful the aesthetic is. I mean, they are both really beautiful watches. Especially with that Teddy macro;) I could not imagine for example putting Japanese divers along side these watches and not having them look just awful. It's almost another genre.
Absolutely love the concave bezel.
That Rado is one beautiful piece.
I think it is great you are offering the code for the free watch strap. Before you started selling, I got the blue dial with the beads of rice bracelet Captain Cook. Later I really wanted to have the leather strap that comes with that blue dial. I had to go back and order the strap from the AD, but it sure would have been nice to get it at the time of purchase for free hahaha. That is a really great idea to offer that with the watch at the time of purchase.
The Rado Originals don’t get enough love either..i have a white tungsten carbide rado with a blue dial...love it 💪🏽
Oris pulls off that "looking out of an old submarine bubble window" look. So cool
Nice comparison video, both very cool watches.
Thanks for watching joe! And agreed. A tough choice
I just bought the green dial Rado this last weekend and must say love this piece. I do wish it had the microadjustments on the bracelet but for the money the Rado is best bang for the buck IMHO.
I looked at both. Ended up with the Captain Cook and so happy I did. The watch is amazing! Bezel on the Oris felt cheap and flimsy. Otherwise I liked it too. The silver dial version of the Oris is beautiful. But the back is just engraved. Had a hard time with that too.
Rado was just a better watch for me.
Great job Teddy!
Likewise!
great review bro! Been eyeballing the Captain for quite some now. You made have just made up my mind. Maybe a Pelagos vs. Aquis might be good.
Certina does a retro diver with the same caliber as the 2k Rado. It also has sapphire, 200m, ceramic bezel. It has an open back, too and a richer history. At half the price.
went for the green Captain Cook but in 300m one, very nice!
Both oris & rado is amazing brands u can get with nice design & a very well priced.
Not to mention the quick release on the Rado bracelet. Really Rado nailed it.
I enjoy the vintage style of these watches however I decided to save the extra money and purchased the Tudor black bay 58. I'm very pleased with my choice and believe it was the right option for me.
It’s interesting to read through the comments and also follow Teddy’s comments about water resistance. Actually no one seams to understand that’s the water-pressure which is setting the limits.... meaning, if you jump into a swimming pool with either of those and hit the water with your arms in a strange angle, slamming the watch onto the surface - there is a certain likelihood of water getting into it already, even if your are swimming in a pool being just about 3 meters deep..... just physics....
I was sold on the Oris diver 65 prior to this video, now its a tougher decision. Both great choices.
Rado wasn't even on my radar...until now. That's a sweet-looking watch. Clean look 80 hrs power reserve under the hood makes it a winner for me.
I was into the oris but in person for some reason it didn't click with me. Rado on the other hand when I saw it in person it was even better than I anticipated. I feel there's more care for details, the domed dial, the sloping bezel all these thing intrigued me.
Also I think due to the design oris felt big and Rado didn't feel 42mm at all.
Both great but I chose captain cook.
Love this! I have a Rado Black Ceramic watch that's given to me by my dad 13 years ago 😊👍
After watching this, I believe the Rado Captain Cook will be my next watch though I recently got myself a Rolex Black Submariner 😊
Probably next comparison will be Omega Seamaster and the new Zenith Chronograph watch. 👍
Could you do a best below **insert price range** for specific brands? Would love to see best tissot watches under 1000 for example
Love the aesthetic of the diver 65, but the Caption Cook's movement is just a no brainer. And also Captain Cook's design is different compared to modern divers, more personalities.
About time a HQ vid on this particular Oris 65 variant- it’s the one I want! Might hold off and see if they put the new cal 400 in the regular production divers 65, that would make it a really tough decision if they also put it in their Aquis in 41.5mm..
like someone said in a forum, buy them both and be happy!
Thanks for the the comparison. I own the Aquis and have this Rado on my radar. Cemented the CC as a great add to my ever growing collection. Is 200 too many? Lol!
I'm half Swiss and half Australian. I would have to go with the Rado.
This should be a good one 🍿
For me, the micro-adjustment is a must for a SS bracelet.
It is very useful. I think it is one of the nicest features to have on a metal bracelet
I can't wear my old Seamaster due to lack of micro adjustment. Why such basic feature is missing from a 2k usd watch is pure non sense.
I just bought the Rado and love it
The two watch brands Producer Michael had never heard of! This is good public service, Teddy :D
Oh "Producer Michael" look how much money I have got, I'll buy some watches (probably amongst all sorts of other expensive consumer items he aquires) and then look a total dick as I'm clueless about watches (see his choices). The very worst type of watch collector!!
@@seamasterist He does fun content and is true to his style. If want to really learn something about watches, I don't turn to him. Don't be a hater.
I love the Captain Cook but I do so wish it came with the standard high beat ETA.
people bashing 100M ''DIVE watch'' literally never dive more deep than 7M !!! love the Oris, the rivet bracelet is a win for me !!!
100m does NOT mean it can go 100mtr deep !
@@ekimandersom4478 but it's still more than enough WR for 99% of people...
I own Rado captain cook green dial, it looks classy and sharp.
Teddy Baldassare should be the next ambassador for Rado watches, as a vlogger/model, I really think it suits your style. Anyone who agrees please hit the LIKE button. 👍
So many choices out there but that Rado looks Unique and not too bulky.
The Rado Captain Cook is Bauhaus to me. Very simple and beautiful. It's the winner.
Iam not huge fan of Rado, but Captain Cook looks to me great...Also love te touch with the logo in the bezel, first time see that.
Both very attractive watches. Tough task to choose between them.
I have the Oris Aquis Hangang, but the next one will be the Oris 65 in 42mm blue dial.
Used to be the Oris, but now that Rado is a clear winner, i think day after day I would enjoy that one more.
Beautiful watches! Did you announce a winner for the giveaway?
Great video Teddy. Would you consider the Certina DS PH 200M? It’s retro ish but about half the price of these (which I love). Is it half the watch ?
Love the Sixty-Five and Oris.
Hey I just saw these in Producer Michael's budget watch round up!
Monta noble review! Let’s see it baby
That green Rado is sweet!
I just bought the Oris Aquas, and seriously considering a 65, probably with the leather band
Hey Teddy, love the content. So much talk about case size and wearability but I am faced with abnormally sized wrists. needing something 50-55mm lug to lug. Anything in this same demographic that would be a good option?
The Oris would look a lot better with the Rado beads of rice bracelet on it 😀
hey teddy. thanks for the video. do you mind also comparing the longines hydroconquest with the rado captain cook as well please.
Ok, so if I had the money, I'd buy Rado. I find the bezel amazing and, come on, the anchor is just fun!
Head to head are great comparisons.
also daviid and goliath comparisons too.
1k vs 1k
1k vs 3k
etc
Could you also compare them with the certina vintage inspired ds diver, very interesting looking watch!
I never understand arguing water resistance numbers. It's unnecessary since there would only be a handful of actual divers in the world that would ever go to such depths and they wouldn't taking these sorts of watches any way. So for us normal folk 100m, 200m or 300m is more than enough.
Can you please do a seperate review of the Carl Brashear? Also can you make video on good tools a watch collector should have like link remover and spring bar tool?
Captain Cook for me, it's just beautiful.
Radio is on my short list. Like the blue dial on leather strap.
I prefer the styling on Oris but must admit that Rado offers some worthwhile functionality advantages like depth rating, energy reserve, and how it'd fit my thinner wrists better.
I own the green rado on the bor bracelet. It's a stunning watch, the steel is so bright . I purchased a rado leather strap to make it more casual for everyday wear. The quick release pins are great on all their straps .on the leather the rado is extremely light, you would think it's a quartz,
But it's so comfy. I love mine.
As for the oris , I think if it's a great design , and a good all rounder really. Side by side though, the rado really pops.
Hope you still enjoying it. I hope to get it also
I would love to see a comparison between Monta Atlas vs. Omega Aquaterra 150m. Similar design notes, 150M water resistance. Both seem like good watches for travelers.
I'd Like to add that most people will only use these watches for swimming and maybe a bit of snorkelling, so unless you are doing Serious Scuba diving on a regular basis, I think the water resistance on both watches is not an issue. I've worn my Oris in the ocean swimming many times, and it still works fine.
Dive watches back in the day were only 100m and people went deep with them just fine. I always get hung up with, its only 100m! But I dont even have a diving certification lol. I am snorkeling and jumping off docs, 50m is probably fine for me lol.
*killing* the turtleneck Teddy. Super fitting the retro theme.
How about a Sinn vs. Ball comparison? Keep up the great work...from a born and raised Clevelander!
The overall look of the Captain Cook is so much more unique than the 65… I would say neither of these scream “take me diving”, so not having any lume on the bezel of the Captain is not an issue.
Love them both. Oris for the dial and handset, Rado for the case, bezel, and bracelet. Overall I think I prefer the Rado
There is another version of the Rado with 300m of water resistance and another bracelet. And I think that one has some micro adjustments.
Rado all day! For two reasons: My grandfather owns a Rado dress watch which he passed down to me, hence the old association with Rado. And two, the anchor is a nice, unique, playful addition that brings a smile to the wearer's face. Do you know why Rado is so popular in the Indian subcontinent? It continues to puzzle me
Actually my debate was between the Rado Captain Cook and the Longines Legend Diver, however on that comparison the winner was the Rado, now that you bring Oris to the table, I still prefer the Rado, I hope to buy it soon
