I wore a 'non date' Submariner for 19 years and a few months ago I saw this watch on the net and fell in love. Soon after I turned my Submariner back into a pile of cash and picked up the Sixty Five with the bronze bezel. It's just so much more interesting than the Sub. Now I'm no longer just another 'me-too' Sub owner but a watch fan with an extra $5000 in the bank. I liked the Sub and it served me well, but this I love.
@@TronaldDump69 I can understand that. The "sub wearer" today is not the sub wearer of 19 years ago. As the "landscape" changes, so does the feeling within i guess. And "love" is a very overrated word to use discribing items as well isnt it?🤷♂
@@TronaldDump69 With an Oris, there’ll be less chance of someone is getting mugged. But I kind of agree that I would rather keep a 19 years sub instead of selling it. Not everyone is a collector, though.
Been looking at Oris for the last couple weeks since I've begun looking for my first really serious time piece and saw the 65 line and this watch in particular is incredible. The bronze elevates this watch to a whole other level and the creaminess of the faux patina lume markers pulls it all together incredibly. I am really looking forward to this piece being in my collection. In the US Oris doesn't seem to be a very big brand, from my limited knowledge but I am really hoping I find one some where to see in person and try on since seeing a beautiful watch and product is vastly different than just a picture of one. Good stuff, keep up the great content!
I just flipped mine after owning it 6 months. I really enjoyed it. Very comfortable to wear, nice size for my 7” wrist. The bronze detail didn’t patina but leather strap aged and darkened very quickly.Just a very nice watch with a cool heritage vibe.
One reason I love Oris is, that they are still independent. While I can appreciate the benefits of conglomerates like the Swatch Group (saving brands from extinction) , it´s still nice to know there are independent brands out there.
Totally agree.it amazes me that anyone would buy a tag over an oris.such nice watches & they just do their own thing discreetly with minimal advertising
Just got back from Basel, and Oris was a definite highlight. Some great new releases to come and these vintage divers are great looking, great value pieces.
Adrian. After watching some of you’re Oris watch video’s , I HAD to look at some at my AD. Yep, fell in love. Bought the 65 Bronze steel deep brown. Then the Black 65 with the numbers inverted black in the colored boxes. Then the Save the Ocean, little thick, but again, I love it and all three. Thanks for turning on to Oris !!
I tried one of these on today on the tapered bracelet. Gorgeous watch. It’s made me question whether I should bother saving for a Black Bay. Great content, love the production and music.
They really are great watches. I personally would push for a Black Bay still. Oris give you amazing value for money, but I think Tudor give you even more so.
Just bought this as my first "proper" watch (while waiting for my AD to get me the almighty 214270). Arrived yesterday, could not be happier. It is an absolutely gorgeous piece. I only found this because of your review. So, big thanks for that...! Keep up the very good work... all the best, Chris
I’m so glad you explained too why they use sellita and not ETA. Also, years ago Oris sold itself to the swatch group, the SG wanted to turn Oris into a entry level cheap watch and Oris didn’t want that and they bought it back off the SG.
Great watch, i have the navy dial & date at 3 o’clock. I also fell in love with the domed Sapphire, very retro look to it. I am always getting compliments on how beautiful that dome looks. And on a leather strap as well! Look wonderful dressed up too. Keep up the great content!
Thanks Robert. It was the dome that I fell in love it. It's perfectly done, and it's not very common to see. Good work buying one. I hope to do the same one day. Cheers, Adrian
the one with 3o'clock date is 42mm diameter, this one with 6 o'clock date window is 40mm also known as the movember edition. of course, if im not mistaken 😊
wow, this is such an interesting watch. Awesome Oris gave you the opportunity to experience and review some of their watches. Curious about what more there is to come. really like this one. as a understated desk diver, with the bronze, date at 6, and the amazing double domed sapphire.
I have to say - being honest, I've always seen Oris as a bit of a "why would you?" option, given what else is available, particularly used, at that price point. But ... this is stunning. Absolutely stunning. Seriously tempted. Great review - thanks!
Hey Simon, I’m completely with you on that feeling. That was until I saw the Divers Sixty Five range. That swung it for me. Glad you like the review. Have a great Sunday. 🍻
Nice review, Adrian. It's very cool that you established a relationship with the Oris CEO and you were able to be loaned some product for review. One thing about the ETA supply crunch that you mentioned. ETA worked on thst with the Swiss government about 8-10 years aho as you mentioned, however, they are not limiting supply today. They realize too much revenue and profit from it so they steeped up supply again. But as many companies developed in-house movements in anticipation of the supply crunch or went to Sellita, some have stayed with the change they made like Oris.
It’s a beauty! I just bought a Tudor GMT and got an Oris Divers 65 42mm as a birthday gift 2.5 years ago. I’m thinking about selling the Oris 42mm to buy the new 40 or 36mm. But it’s a birthday gift and I won’t sell the GMT...
I own this watch. Beautiful, it keeps time to +3 seconds per day. The strap turns a lovely chocolatey brown after a couple of months. Great value and superb quality.
Just bought this watch on a whim. I’m almost exclusively a vintage Zodiac collector. Was in a local AD today to drop off a seashell one of my boys found on the beach and asked to be made into a necklace. Saw this exact model sitting in the case and instantly thought to myself, that’s my next watch. They agreed to fit it with the steel bracelet as well as the rubber strap and by fault, threw in the leather strap.
Great review. Videos just get better and better. Beautiful looking piece. Not sure why people complain about the movement, my Sinn104 has the Sellita and has not missed a beat.
three years later this watch on a rubber strap (unfortunately, but easily remedied) is going for $1,495USD on sale. Great review on a watch for persons like myself only a year in to the world of watch enthusiasm. I'm trying to convince myself to hold out for the Tudor BB58, but this Oris is a very temping alternative. Thx Adrian.
What did you decide on? I was dead set in the BB58, but now I’ve discovered this watch. And to be honest, even though the specs aren’t as good.. it looks better to me than the BB
Nice piece of editing there, like the transitions too👍🏻👍🏻 I like the Oris 65 for its style. They offer it as well on a bracelet which has the riveted style like the tudors one. Only flaw for me is the just 100m WR. They could have made it 200 to make it a “real” divewatch. Sure, I know, not necessary but still: a divers watch should have divers depth rating. Anyhow it’s a phenomenal watch and I did enjoy, as usual, your Vid. Thanks and cheers from Germany, Konstantin 👍🏻🙏🏻
I don't watch the these videos without checking my bank account first. Solid watches reviewed that don't follow the crowd, but are excellent mixes of casual and dress. Keep up the great videography and reviews 👍
My spouse is an artesan leather accessory worker. She makes, well, BDSM scene inspired fashion accessories but they are made with the same sort of techniques as watch straps. The reason the edges of the leather is sealed is because it greatly enhances the life of the leather. As I understand it protects from moisture ingress and stops the leather from fraying at the same time. So that shiny edge you don't like is there to keep that strap nice and usable for longer. Which seems smart to me especially in a highly water resistant watch with a leather strap - people are going to get it wet. Maybe the way to make it look old and patina'd is to, well, use it. ;) Speaking of the strap, I wonder if they tried using a piece of bronze for the tongue of the buckle? Would have been in keeping with the steel and bronze look. That bezel seemed really easy to turn when you turned it in your video.
I have just bought this watch. Waiting for her to arrive. Eta seem to have problems with their movements at present. My Hamilton is in again for repair. But love the watch!!
Great review! I can’t wait to get this watch. I planned on getting the Oris chronoris, but now I’m thinking that’s gonna have to wait and I’m going to get this one first instead. Keep the great work.

Great Watch! Bought the Movember edition and absolutely love it. Got the bracelet as well and it wears beautifully. Will go nicely with a blue BB58 I’m looking to buy as my next watch. Great video!
Decided to trade with a new friend in the hobby, my 43mm Aquis Date for the 42mm green dial Diver’s Sixty-Five..it should be in on Tuesday, can’t wait!
Edit: It came in on Tuesday, it’s a black dial 42mm Diver’s Sixty-Five; the photos I saw initially had made the dial seem green in the lighting. I love this piece and haven’t stopped wearing it since! The taper on the bracelet is just..perfection. Finally, a watch to take wrist time away from my Aquaracer 300m!
I have the Blue/Black face and it's become my everyday watch. Super comfortable on the rubber strap or bracelet. I got lucky and have only been losing about 3 seconds a day. That's better than I got with eta's and the 6139 from Seiko. My only regret is not getting the one with a black face and bronze bezel.....
That’s a great review! Those close ups while you read the book are stunning! You may have tipped me over the edge to go get one of these Oris watches. Keep up the videos, I’m loving them all so far.
I just bought this watch. Got the one with the deep blue dial and black nylon band. I'm pretty hard on watches and usually stick to G-Shocks. Decided it was time to get something more upscale for all the swanky, ritzy high society events I never attend. HA! Great video, mate!!
Lovely watch but from a previous experience I would not trust Oris to look after their customers. Once a company loses that trust it doesnt matter how good their products are. Glad you liked them - great informative vids
Alexander Huber Yes Sir lol. I adore Oris, Tudor and Seiko. But Squale what can I say? It's like the feeling I get when I bite into a York Peppermint Patty. Best regards, Sir Willie Stroker
Gorgeous - had the Diver 65 with the numerals for a year now - still an absolute delight to wear. Interestingly the deep black dial becomes increasingly a key feature once you see past all the others gorgeous little elements, including that dome! Would love to see a review of the Oris big crown Pointer date...
I haven't touched mine to reset in in over 10 days and it is 20 seconds fast. I'll take that. I have the navy blue with date at 3 and I still love just looking at it.
I went with the cward over this one. The oris looks great but the cward looked like it gave more watch for less money. It also has a selita thats running 2-5 seconds a day in all positions
Agree. Oris is a wonderful brand, and this particular model is awesome. ETA or not is unimportant as both movements are really fine. What matters is a good design and a very nice size for a diver. But I have a question: at 00:14 you zoom in on an Oris. What model is that? Is it one of their historical pieces? Since you zoomed in on it you may perhaps know the answer...
Hey buddy, it was one of their historic pieces in their little museum. I don't know the reference unfortunately. I arrived at the shop late after work and they were about to close up, so I quickly shot what I needed and ran off with the watches.
It has been about a year since I'm ogling at this beautiful watch, and the only thing that was curbing me was the 42mm case. Now that they offer it in 36 and 40mm (by the way what is the size of the one you tried ?) and that they sublimated it with some subtle bronze details, it's just a question of time until I acquire one. I have to. I NEED to ! In my opinion this watch is a great option to get that authentic and adventurous feeling vintage watches can procure, without bothering about the "troubles" actual ones can come by with. Moreover it is available at a reasonable price for the quality..! What could we ask more ? I really enjoy the humble tone of your videos, and totally agree with you about the brut aspect they could have given to the strap, it would have been perfect !
I have had one on my hands this morning in a jelwery and... I'm in love! Next purchase, for sure. In video it doesn't look specially interesting but when you have one close...wow! Elegant, simple, very readable, perfect diameter and slim, beautiful domed AR sapphire crystal... a bit overpriced (1.800 euros in Spain) for a common ETA movement but its aesthetics are incredible
I had bought the bracelet version 1 week ago however I haven't worn it. Today I will purchase B&J bronze NATO then will wear it. Thank you for your sincerity. Kind Regards Levent
Excellent video, and I agree with may of thepoints you made about this wonderful watch. Just one thing, maybe you could consider having shots of the movement when you're talking about it
Hi Adrian a great vid, as usual. That is a lovely looking watch. I may need to check one out. But I would need to swop out that leather strap. I know that the vast majority of divers will never see any more water than in a bathroom, but it just feels wrong. But I'll admit that it does compliment the look of this piece. I'm a bit disappointed that you had to read the ref. number. I thought that a man of your calibre would have remembered it .;) Keep up the good work. Can't wait for the next one.
Emre bey, gecen hafta oris 65 bronze bezel aldım. Gerçekten çok hoş ve klas bir saat ama benim Tudor Black bay 58 im de var. Bence Tudor çok daha yapılı bir saat ve çok daha dayanıklı hissettiriyor. Oris ise daha çok elbise saati gibi. Aslına bakarsan ben Orisi biraz daha fazla sevdim . Gün-de sadece 2s kadar ileri gidiyor. E ger aklınızda varsa tavsiye ederim. Hollandadan sevgilerle... Levent
I have this watch, I love it. Apart from the strap that is absolutely awful, the first one fell to pieces within four weeks and I got a replacement from Oris which literally fell to pieces in the first week. I have had to purchase a third-party strap for £40 as I have up on the Oris ones. This seems to be much better quality (even at the meager sum of £40).
I've owned this watch for a couple of years, it has a great dial, the patina on the bezel gives it a lovely worn-in look, but the tiny date window detracts from it, and you need to be careful to not change the date between 9pm and 3am or you can block the movement. I did this accidentally, it was repaired under warranty at no cost, but it's easy to mistake the position for winding it up with the position for changing the date, so be careful...
Hi Adrian, well I am a fanboy too. Have not seen this model before and love it. Don't know that much about movements but do know that eta's are supposed to be better than selita's. The same criticism gets levelled at my Aquis too, although I really don't care too much as long as it's reasonably accurate. Another great review and looking forward t the next one. Oh yeah loved the bag street, bag room mix too. Your getting creative now and I like it. Nice one mate.
My Oris keeps time to within 2 seconds a day, so it seems a Sellita movement can run just as well as an ETA. Sellita has also hired highly regarded movement designers, so I don’t think there’s a fundamental flaw with their versions of ETA movements.
Love the production quality and overall look of your videos! The music too (maybe put the artist in the description? I know the original but not this 'remix'). For a brand that was not even on my radar a few years back... there are now many Oris watches on my wish list. With the Sixty-five and the new big crown pointer date at the top. Oris is becoming one of my favorite brands in terms of style. The value for some of their watches is great, but this is a bit more expensive than I thought it would be.
Nice entry level luxury piece. For me the ladder up has been with the Sarb035, to a Shogun. Next up will be either that Sixty-Five with brass bezel or the Sinn 104 in white.
Nice review once again! I recently got the 65 with arabics and stick markers as I think that design has the most personality out of the heritage range. It came on the riveted bracelet which tapers from 20 to 14mm and is super comfy! Zuludiver also makes a nice aftermarket alternative for the tropic rubber strap which I got instead of paying a considerable premium for OEM. The movement is basically a downgrade from the Top grade 2824-2 on my last watch, the Sinn 556 I. It has been running very consistently at +8 to 10 seconds a day which is still completely passable to me personally, but I understand people's concerns about an Elaboré Sellita in the price range. I did get mine second-hand for quite a bit cheaper than at the AD.
Great Video. New bronze version looks nice.. similar to the 40mm Movember Edition I bought a couple of months ago (they only had the larger 42mm version in store at the time which was too big for me). Looks great on Nato straps as well. The thin case thickness is the icing on the cake for me (Black Bay is way too thick, and more $$$).
If only Oris had used a white date wheel and made the date-aperture the same shape as the 12:00 marker (but flipped upside-down) and outlined the aperture in the same bronze outline to help maintain symmetry... It's still a gorgeous watch though!
Bought an Omega a few weeks ago. The bag was huge with Omega on it so my wife wore the watch and we left the bag in the jewellers until we were ready to leave the city. Only a short walk to car park, but even then wished we had another bag to put it in!
Yup. I popped into an Omega boutique last week, just browsing, and they gave me the catalouges in a ma-hoo-sive Omega bag. I've never felt so vulnerable walking through Birmingham! I didn't want to get shanked just for some catalogues!
I always have a supermarket bag on me to dump the other one in. In Russia in the bad old days you would also have a cabbage to pop right on the top. Yeah, just shopping for veg.
Excellent review Andy. Oris is a very nice brand . I own the Big Crown D.26 286 with the green bezel which is limited edition. Amazing watch . Well made watches still low on price vs quality they offer. Andrian, do some review on Longines watches...Lots to talk about I think...cheers .
Great looking watch, yes I agree with you on most points. I think the waxed edges of the band will wear off and expose the raw grain you desire in short order. I personally love the watch "as is". Have a great day!
Great intro! Really like your channel, man. That Oris is a really beauty. The AR double domed sapphire crystal is a quality touch. But... I think it is quite overpriced. You can get similar products from Swatch group for half the price. Thanks and kind regards.

Well. It is funny to use a glove to avoid patina and you turn the bezel with your fingers when you have the hand in your pocket. Really nice watch.
Well. It is funny that it is his watch so if decided to use his hands than so be it.

the depth rating is a bit silly, you have watches with 1000m depth rating but the world record depth for diving is something like 343m.
Diving from the desk to the vending machine eh? I do recreational diving and the most I have gone is 55M so the 200 is def not needed at all

Lovely watch but from a previous experience I would not trust Oris to look after their customers. Once a company loses that trust it doesnt matter how good their products are. Glad you liked them - great informative vids
That watch has a really cool vintage vibe. Thank you for sharing Adrian.
Great watches these Divers from Oris. Just bought this one on steel to add to my blue and grey Diver 65 with the original dial.
That watch is definitely on my hit list. Stunning
I hope someone doesn't steal the Oris Bear like at Baselworld. Awesome video. Keep up the great work.

Hey Sir Willie Stroker (best name on the Internet!) thanks again for stopping by. And glad you like the video. 🙌🏻
Could you please direct to the nearest SKWALEEEE?

Yes Sir lol. I adore Oris, Tudor and Seiko. But Squale what can I say? It's like the feeling I get when I bite into a York Peppermint Patty.
Best regards,
Sir Willie Stroker
The Suburban Gentry ahaha 🤣
Blatant copy of the urban Gentry lol
Gorgeous - had the Diver 65 with the numerals for a year now - still an absolute delight to wear. Interestingly the deep black dial becomes increasingly a key feature once you see past all the others gorgeous little elements, including that dome! Would love to see a review of the Oris big crown Pointer date...
Aah I cant wait for the Oris pointer date review! Im thinking about buying one since Basel World
I pulled the trigger! Great watch! Thank you for the great reviews.
It's funny, I literally saw this watch yesterday by chance and was immediately fascinated. It really is a beautiful piece when you see it in real.
Quick note. Your taste in music is good. Love your intro tunes.
Thanks buddy. 👍🏻
@@BarkandJack Can you please share the artist of the tune?
LOVE What ORIS is doing with their watches
Just got this one on bracelet. Looks even better in person, beautiful watch
was my first serious watch too. love it especially on a Hirsch strap
I've been wearing my Oris Big Crown daily for well over 25 years now. Obviously, I like it - a lot.
I have no issues with the Sellita movement but I wish they started regulating them. In $2k watches that would be appropriate imo
I haven't touched mine to reset in in over 10 days and it is 20 seconds fast. I'll take that. I have the navy blue with date at 3 and I still love just looking at it.
Well, with all the variance in production a few eggs will run well. It's a mathematical fact.
Yeah, well, you can get an unregulated Orient right out of the box that will probably be 2 to 5 seconds a day.
I went with the cward over this one. The oris looks great but the cward looked like it gave more watch for less money. It also has a selita thats running 2-5 seconds a day in all positions
Agree. Oris is a wonderful brand, and this particular model is awesome. ETA or not is unimportant as both movements are really fine. What matters is a good design and a very nice size for a diver. But I have a question: at 00:14 you zoom in on an Oris. What model is that? Is it one of their historical pieces? Since you zoomed in on it you may perhaps know the answer...
Hey buddy, it was one of their historic pieces in their little museum. I don't know the reference unfortunately. I arrived at the shop late after work and they were about to close up, so I quickly shot what I needed and ran off with the watches.
It has been about a year since I'm ogling at this beautiful watch, and the only thing that was curbing me was the 42mm case. Now that they offer it in 36 and 40mm (by the way what is the size of the one you tried ?) and that they sublimated it with some subtle bronze details, it's just a question of time until I acquire one. I have to. I NEED to !
In my opinion this watch is a great option to get that authentic and adventurous feeling vintage watches can procure, without bothering about the "troubles" actual ones can come by with. Moreover it is available at a reasonable price for the quality..! What could we ask more ?
I really enjoy the humble tone of your videos, and totally agree with you about the brut aspect they could have given to the strap, it would have been perfect !
I have had one on my hands this morning in a jelwery and... I'm in love! Next purchase, for sure. In video it doesn't look specially interesting but when you have one close...wow! Elegant, simple, very readable, perfect diameter and slim, beautiful domed AR sapphire crystal... a bit overpriced (1.800 euros in Spain) for a common ETA movement but its aesthetics are incredible
Excuse me, in fact it was this model th-cam.com/video/udCd3pDWLUY/w-d-xo.html
I had bought the bracelet version 1 week ago however I haven't worn it. Today I will purchase B&J bronze NATO then will wear it. Thank you for your sincerity.
Kind Regards

Review is fantastic. I love the 65 with the green face.
I'm with you Adrian I like this and the big crown pointer date....Oris is making a step in the right direction
Pure awesome... from photography to watches to music...
Excellent video, and I agree with may of thepoints you made about this wonderful watch. Just one thing, maybe you could consider having shots of the movement when you're talking about it
I hope your next Oris review is a one of the new big crown aviators, the blue looks amazing!
Stunner I've got the green face version and love it!!
Hi Adrian a great vid, as usual. That is a lovely looking watch. I may need to check one out. But I would need to swop out that leather strap. I know that the vast majority of divers will never see any more water than in a bathroom, but it just feels wrong. But I'll admit that it does compliment the look of this piece. I'm a bit disappointed that you had to read the ref. number. I thought that a man of your calibre would have remembered it .;) Keep up the good work. Can't wait for the next one.
Maybe the strap side will age as well, it is a nice Tudor alternative for me, great video many tnx!
Emre bey, gecen hafta oris 65 bronze bezel aldım. Gerçekten çok hoş ve klas bir saat ama benim Tudor Black bay 58 im de var. Bence Tudor çok daha yapılı bir saat ve çok daha dayanıklı hissettiriyor. Oris ise daha çok elbise saati gibi. Aslına bakarsan ben Orisi biraz daha fazla sevdim . Gün-de sadece 2s kadar ileri gidiyor. E ger aklınızda varsa tavsiye ederim. Hollandadan sevgilerle...

I have this watch, I love it. Apart from the strap that is absolutely awful, the first one fell to pieces within four weeks and I got a replacement from Oris which literally fell to pieces in the first week. I have had to purchase a third-party strap for £40 as I have up on the Oris ones. This seems to be much better quality (even at the meager sum of £40).
I have it on the bracelet. Awesome watch, vintage class!
I've owned this watch for a couple of years, it has a great dial, the patina on the bezel gives it a lovely worn-in look, but the tiny date window detracts from it, and you need to be careful to not change the date between 9pm and 3am or you can block the movement. I did this accidentally, it was repaired under warranty at no cost, but it's easy to mistake the position for winding it up with the position for changing the date, so be careful...
Hi Adrian, well I am a fanboy too. Have not seen this model before and love it. Don't know that much about movements but do know that eta's are supposed to be better than selita's. The same criticism gets levelled at my Aquis too, although I really don't care too much as long as it's reasonably accurate. Another great review and looking forward t the next one.
Oh yeah loved the bag street, bag room mix too. Your getting creative now and I like it. Nice one mate.
Superb. I'd have trouble deciding which dial option to go for though...as they are all gorgeous.
Great review. But you show with the glove to protect the bezel, and at the end of the video you touch it with your bare hand to turn it....
My Oris keeps time to within 2 seconds a day, so it seems a Sellita movement can run just as well as an ETA. Sellita has also hired highly regarded movement designers, so I don’t think there’s a fundamental flaw with their versions of ETA movements.
Love the production quality and overall look of your videos! The music too (maybe put the artist in the description? I know the original but not this 'remix').
For a brand that was not even on my radar a few years back... there are now many Oris watches on my wish list. With the Sixty-five and the new big crown pointer date at the top. Oris is becoming one of my favorite brands in terms of style. The value for some of their watches is great, but this is a bit more expensive than I thought it would be.
The Moment I Wake Up - A U X
Cheers...
My next watch!!!In the same color and strap..Very nice..Love it..
Great looking watch nearly bought one a while back, not to keen on leather on dive watches, looks great with their rubber strap.
Nice entry level luxury piece. For me the ladder up has been with the Sarb035, to a Shogun. Next up will be either that Sixty-Five with brass bezel or the Sinn 104 in white.
really interested to see visual diff between 36 and 40mm
Brandon, just tried both on, because I have a tiny wrist. The 36 looks better, but the lug width is horribly with the tapered strap.
Marty Staton thanks! Definitely considering it as my next buy. Now comes the dilemma between blue or bronze...
Nice review once again! I recently got the 65 with arabics and stick markers as I think that design has the most personality out of the heritage range. It came on the riveted bracelet which tapers from 20 to 14mm and is super comfy! Zuludiver also makes a nice aftermarket alternative for the tropic rubber strap which I got instead of paying a considerable premium for OEM.
The movement is basically a downgrade from the Top grade 2824-2 on my last watch, the Sinn 556 I. It has been running very consistently at +8 to 10 seconds a day which is still completely passable to me personally, but I understand people's concerns about an Elaboré Sellita in the price range. I did get mine second-hand for quite a bit cheaper than at the AD.
7:42 - it's hand applied leather wax - used to seal ends - this is only done in upscale leather goods. it's baller
Boy, what a review but more importantly, what a nice sound!!! I read many don’t like it - I love it!! Could you let me know what it is?? Thanks!!
Wow Adrian you've come a long way
Thanks a lot mate.
Great Video. New bronze version looks nice.. similar to the 40mm Movember Edition I bought a couple of months ago (they only had the larger 42mm version in store at the time which was too big for me). Looks great on Nato straps as well. The thin case thickness is the icing on the cake for me (Black Bay is way too thick, and more $$$).
If only Oris had used a white date wheel and made the date-aperture the same shape as the 12:00 marker (but flipped upside-down) and outlined the aperture in the same bronze outline to help maintain symmetry... It's still a gorgeous watch though!
Walks home with an Oris bag.
Gets mugged by some chav on a moped.
1701spacecadet Sadly this is becoming more and more true. A good quality backpack is a great buy for this.
Bought an Omega a few weeks ago. The bag was huge with Omega on it so my wife wore the watch and we left the bag in the jewellers until we were ready to leave the city. Only a short walk to car park, but even then wished we had another bag to put it in!
Yup. I popped into an Omega boutique last week, just browsing, and they gave me the catalouges in a ma-hoo-sive Omega bag. I've never felt so vulnerable walking through Birmingham! I didn't want to get shanked just for some catalogues!
I always have a supermarket bag on me to dump the other one in. In Russia in the bad old days you would also have a cabbage to pop right on the top. Yeah, just shopping for veg.
here in America you can have a gun in most cities; we have zero motor bike muggings.
The first one is my new dream watch!!!
So true about the strap that you mentioned and what it should be I totally feel you !
What a beautiful watch! Definitely on my list! Thank you, Adrian, for this great review! Best regards
Excellent review Andy. Oris is a very nice brand . I own the Big Crown D.26 286 with the green bezel which is limited edition. Amazing watch . Well made watches still low on price vs quality they offer. Andrian, do some review on Longines watches...Lots to talk about I think...cheers .
Great looking watch, yes I agree with you on most points. I think the waxed edges of the band will wear off and expose the raw grain you desire in short order. I personally love the watch "as is". Have a great day!
I begin to like your you tube films ..so British 😀. Besides that...very good and you are well informed
Please go on,,
Thanks Rik. 👍🏻
A rocket appartamento rocket machine! That is insane for a watch store! A quality product!
Beautiful time piece... Thanks for the great review. I’ll be picking one up for myself.
Great intro! Really like your channel, man. That Oris is a really beauty. The AR double domed sapphire crystal is a quality touch. But... I think it is quite overpriced. You can get similar products from Swatch group for half the price. Thanks and kind regards.
Kind of feel the same, Hamilton comes to mind...
Can you give some model number for reference? I would like to see similar products.
Hi, please share what specific Swatch Group watch you are referring to. THANKS
I have this watch . Fantastic piece . Where I can get the Belt for this watch . Any option available in open market?
Yeah I have this one for close to a year. Very nice and runs +3 sec for me a day.
I guess i have a thing about bronze.. or brass.. they just look beautiful.. Great review!
Love this watch! In your opinion of rating both which one do you prefer? This diver or the Big Crown?
