My first Swiss watch is an Oris. I have an Oris Aquis (the one with the nice rounded hands, not the new one). I'm a huge Japanese watch fan, but Oris is really great value Swiss watch for the money.
@1:17:38 Cameron is wrong about the Non-linear design on the Calibre 113 movement. It's not just on the dial side. The gear is also non-linear (sort of a spiraling shell shape) to illustrate a non-linear power reserve indicator. You can see it on the movement.

I just wanted to comment the same. Well explained Simon
The Swiss watch statute said that watch companies had to stick with the technology that they were using upto the day it fell into effect. With this oris was stuck with the pin lever escapement. They developed it as much as they could and fought legally to withdraw the statute. When they won legally they were able to switch technologies.
Biel is the German name. Bienne is French. It’s like with Munich. Don’t know why English speakers call it that, but its actual German name is München. Another weird one is the German town of Braunschweig we call “Brunswick.”
The Orisbach, or Oris Brook, that divides the border between Solothurn and Basel-Landschaft Cantons in Switzerland. The Oris Brook is, in fact, not the brook next to the Oris factory, but instead it's a short drive away. One theory is that they found the neighboring brook too difficult to pronounce for an international audience but the emotional pull of naming the company after a brook led them to the name.
Hey Matt and Cameron. Great conversation as always. I'm hoping you can do a followup at some point on the oris 10 day power reserve movement. The runtime alone makes it quite interesting, but oris has been able to add some interesting complications to it as well. I'm especially interested in the non-linear power reserve meter and how they might achieve that.
I just bought a used Oris BC3 Advanced Day Date. After much research and due diligence, I’m a new big fan of Oris. Great history and great value for a real Swiss made watch.
The BC4 line with he vertical crown is to adjust the internal rotating bezel. The pushers have some different functions depending on the model. In the case of the model you were looking at it adjusts the hour hand to jump the hour forward or back. Some models use the pushers for a chrono.
Great to see a Deep dive on an every day accessible (to most people) Swiss brand. I personally love and own a few Oris so nice to see a good in depth review of the company. Well done guys!
3 things: 1:The cows are named after Holstein an area in the north of continental europe (germany,netherlands...) not Hölstein which is in switzerland. The two dots obove the o do matter ;-). 2: concerning fighter planes: they are pressurized, as far as i know the breathing masks are to "force-feed air" in high G situations. 3:about oris: with the Aquis and Racing series you mainly have to use original straps/bands because of the lug design.
You can still drive around Switzerland and notice barns and farm building that have these odd huge windows at the top floor (where usually hay would have been stored) That is a give-way that at some stage someone had a watch (or watch-part) workshop there at some stage. They only had daylight to work by.... Several big companies (such as Volvo) have bus services for their employees. It's a pretty regular European thing. Paddy
Στέφανος Χίος poor you. I bet it was sooooo hard to listen to two guys talk watches that you didn’t have to pay a dime to consume. What bullshit comments
I have an Oris BC4 Retrograde Day, the day of the week complication is very unique. Also you can register your watches on their site, cool way to have details of your Oris watches online.
Am I confused? The involvement of Portmann was to overcome the statute so that Oris could progress from pin lever escapements and onward to Swiss lever escapements, was it not? The way it's explained in the video leads one to believe that Oris wanted to continue to use the pin lever escapement in their timepieces?
the Oris Carlos Coste TT1 titanium ltd edition /2000 2000m was one of my first decent watches. still have it. had it so long they are pretty collectible now hah
Stands out as a baseball diamond to me, which is weird since the watch is made for soccer.... That watch would drive me OCD nuts, the pushes are not even evenly spaced from the lugs on either side
Oris no longer uses any eta calibers. they have switched to sellita calibers which are clones of the eta calibers. They usually develop modules that are on top of the base calibers of sellitas. They have also been making some watches with their inhouse movements as well.
You guys didnt mention that in 1991 the red rotor movements and even some before that they where using ETA movements and thats how they keep the prices down!!!! most of the basic movements even the ones with sub seconds at the 9 o'clock position and the pointer ones are all ETA 2836-2 based movements with in-house modifications oh and by the way good luck getting the replacement parts for these where they have been in-hose modded!!
I enjoyed your vid, thanks for the info and the chat. Oris have a fascinating history and make some amazing watches.... One point though, their movements are Sellita, not ETA. Sellita are ETA clones with some minor improvements.
Good episode very informative. I have the Prodiver Tidal watch and an Artix GT. Great watches! Will we be able to trade in Oris with Crown and Caliber in the future?
Another great video. I hope you have a history of JLC planned. They are an interesting company, and their movements can be found in several models from the "holy trinity". Plus I just picked up my first JLC from Crown and Caliber, so I am a bit excited about the brand at the moment :). BTW, Crown was awesome to deal with, and were super competitive with their pricing. I also love the watch roll they include as well, great for travelling
Oris is the only Swiss watch I would buy. I am selling my Orient Bambino and part of my vintage watch collection to raise some cash and saving up now. In the meantime I have my lovely Seagull Ocean Star and Seagull 819 316 flying wheel to enjoy.
I love this channel, but have you given any thought to offering videos of segments on specific topics? My schedule doesn’t permit my being able to watch whole episodes, but 10-25 minutes is doable. Just an idea
Watching videos with freedivers WITHOUT a surfacing balloon is crazy shit, watching how slow they go up that line to conserve oxygen.. Try watching those videos while holding your breath ;)
For a watchmaker, Weiss doesn't seem to be very thorough with his knowledge. I have an Oris BC3 black, and I intend to aquire more, Including an Aquis and a chronograph.
Thanks for sharing. We do have a movement that we machine in our workshop inside our "American Issue Field Watch". We machine the components from raw materials - even down to the screw. You can read more about it on our website and view that timepiece here: weisswatchcompany.com/collections/all/products/american-issue-field-watch-black-dial
Buwsur you just don’t get it do you. I bet you couldn’t even put one together yet you trash talk a brand that has more heritage than you can comprehend. This comment shows your ignorance.

Fast forward to 14 minutes if you want to skip the chit chat and get to ORIS
Thank you for your service, kind Sir.
Too bad i saw this comment after i literally listened to 13 minutes and 40 seconds. Jesus.
lol

I love the side tangents you guys go off on. I would like to see you guys do a history of Patek or A Longe and Sohne
MrBurnthePriest ALS History
1930’s - up and running
1940’s - 1990’s Closed due to Cold War.
1994 - Back.

The Artilier comp is not an annual calendar. It's an adjustable 12 hour scale at the 6 o'clock sub dial. Big fan of the show!
the Oris Carlos Coste TT1 titanium ltd edition /2000 2000m was one of my first decent watches. still have it. had it so long they are pretty collectible now hah
The "B2 Bomber" on the Player watch is possibly the corner of a soccer field (corner kicks).
Stands out as a baseball diamond to me, which is weird since the watch is made for soccer.... That watch would drive me OCD nuts, the pushes are not even evenly spaced from the lugs on either side
Of course thats the corner of a Footballfield (Soccer for the U.S.) Field. The hand are where usually the corner flag is placed.
Oris no longer uses any eta calibers. they have switched to sellita calibers which are clones of the eta calibers. They usually develop modules that are on top of the base calibers of sellitas. They have also been making some watches with their inhouse movements as well.
I need the Aquis !

Love the look of the new model Cameron! That design is right up my alley 👍
This is the best episod ever
I have the Aquis Diver in the Green face …so cool.
Good episode very informative. I have the Prodiver Tidal watch and an Artix GT. Great watches! Will we be able to trade in Oris with Crown and Caliber in the future?

Holy crap we're up to 26 episodes already?!
New favourite podcast.
Would love to see a history of Longines
Cameron good job releasing your field watch in a 38mm size 👍🏾
Oris was named after the Orisbach River. It is a few miles away from Hölstine.
Look for Liestal, Switzerland; the river runs into the town.
Great episode!
That notebook though... Love a good plan but conversation always struggles to stay with it! As I think it should! Great podcast guys!
Best, IC
Oris Players Watch - Funky triangle = Corner Kick zone of Soccer Pitch.
It's a lefty aquis. They use Salita Sw 200
Cameron pronounces is Ooo-ris but I thought it was Orrr-is. Which is correct?
👍I ❤️Oris I Only buy Oris and Rolex watches 🇸🇪
If you wanna buy A Weiss buy a preowned one...
You should do in depth reviews of cheaper divers watches. Pun intended.
Start with a Seagull Ocean Star.
Still watching, loving it. Do Longines next.
I collect Russian Raketa alarm clocks. I didn't know that Oris made alarm clocks.
I love this channel, but have you given any thought to offering videos of segments on specific topics? My schedule doesn’t permit my being able to watch whole episodes, but 10-25 minutes is doable. Just an idea
K ris just pause the video and come back to it. That’s what I do.
K ris how else can we cater to your every whim?
I love watches
Watching videos with freedivers WITHOUT a surfacing balloon is crazy shit, watching how slow they go up that line to conserve oxygen..
Try watching those videos while holding your breath ;)
And the one watch I wanted to see on here and they didn’t send them one...Oris Sixty-Five.
Good catch on a very underrated Swiss brand. Can you guys do Fortis in the near future? Love the Weiss 38MM !
Yes, an automotive journalist is similar to a watchmaker...
Pka Sent me here
15:00 you’ll thank me later
I am from the UK
You guys might want to take some French classes..bon.
I like oris watches
From scratch? Hmmm
For a watchmaker, Weiss doesn't seem to be very thorough with his knowledge. I have an Oris BC3 black, and I intend to aquire more, Including an Aquis and a chronograph.
You always say Weiss build watches from scratch whilst showing the Swiss movement in their watches .
Thanks for sharing. We do have a movement that we machine in our workshop inside our "American Issue Field Watch". We machine the components from raw materials - even down to the screw. You can read more about it on our website and view that timepiece here: weisswatchcompany.com/collections/all/products/american-issue-field-watch-black-dial
That is good news ,Keep up the great work .Nothing wrong with eta movements of course just bugged me every time I watched a podcast .
Oris phukin sucks! People need to save up and buy decent watches!
Buwsur you just don’t get it do you. I bet you couldn’t even put one together yet you trash talk a brand that has more heritage than you can comprehend. This comment shows your ignorance.
