For the last two editions of Baselworld, Oris has taken mighty swings at their mid-century heritage, delivering the Diver Sixty-Five in 2015, and then a slew of vintage re-editions in the seasons that followed. For 2017, the independent Swiss watchmaker is ushering in a new generation with its core sports watch collection, the Aquis, [...]

The Oris Williams Valtteri Bottas Limited Edition is currently at the top of the ladder when it comes to Swiss Oris motorsport watch collection. When checking it out at Baselworld 2016, it struck me that the racing-themed Oris timepieces might not get as much attentio [...]

There are few activities that excite me as much as diving. So when Oris proposed to send me their Aquis Depth Gauge Chronograph reference 01 774 7708 4154-Set RS watch to accompany me on my annual diving trip (this year, in Key Largo, Florida) I could not wait to get in the water. What follows is a full review of this watch and my experience diving with it. I also includ [...]

In the world of horology, the term in-house is generally associated with high-end luxury timepieces which are often exorbitantly priced, and this makes owning one a distant dream for many watch aficionados out there. But in recent times, a few brands including Oris seem to have acknowledged the situation and aimed to bridge this gap by producing watches like the Oris Artelier Calibre 113 [...]

First blue, and now green. Oris has fought the regular impulse to offer a black dial for the Oris Divers Sixty-Five 42mm watch, and instead has launched a new green-dialed version of their handsome vintage-inspired design. Green dial watches are rather uncommon, but Oris has elected for a deep green that they call oceanic, a [...]

Right around the turn of 2015 when it seemed liked the watch industry as a whole was scouring its archives for inspiration and loading up on faux gilt and beige Super-LumiNova paints, Oris was already priming the Divers Sixty-Five-an obscure reference from the height of the Sixties, resurrected for what would soon become the years runaway hit, some 50 years after it was largely forgotten. Here is the Oris Diver [...]

High on my list of favorite watches from Baselworld 2016 is the Oris Divers Sixty-Five 42mm (aka Sixty-Five 42). Sharing a few common traits with the previous smash-hit Divers Sixty-Five, this new 42mm model is a bit bigger and has an entirely different dial, with a more traditional dive watch layout and a lovely gradated blu [...]

Building upon the well-received 110 and 111 calibers, Baselworld 2016 sees Oris unveiling a third aimed at time-zone hoppers by adding a GMT function to their newest in-house movement, their Calibre 112.

Sponsored Post written by Rob CaplanAlong with many critics and collectors, the Oris Divers Sixty-Five was our favorite 2015 timepiece under $2,000. Now, thanks to our unique relationship and shared vision with Oris, my brother Russ and I are proud to announce the Oris Divers Sixty-Five Topper Edition: a 100-pi [...]

The Oris Divers Sixty Five is surprising. When I first saw the watch at Baselworld early last year, it stood out among the usual burly pro-style diving watches for which Oris is known. On the same table, I saw the impressive 48mm Aquis Depth Gauge Chronograph and the comparatively diminutive and unassuming Oris Divers Sixty Five. With [...]

There is a certain balancing act that must be respected when designing a successful automotive-themed watch, with many examples simply falling prey to the uncanny valley of making the watch look much like a car, wheel, or gauge. With the new?Oris?Williams Engine Date, the brand?has found an equilibrium with a legible steel sport [...]

With their new Carl Brashear Limited Edition dive watch, Oris pays tribute to the U.S Navys first African-American Master Diver, the thoroughly impressive Carl Brashear. With a classic and clean diver aesthetic rendered in bronze, this limited edition piece expands upon the success of the Oris Divers Sixty Five, [...]

Let me tell you why I acquired a new Oris timepiece for my daughter that I dont plan on giving her for 18 years. Time is an important commodity, and watches do more than just keep track of it: watches often signify a specific achievement or moment in time that rings to mind with every glance at the wrist. They also represent the passing of time, which is fa [...]

Remember Oriss surprise launch of the Divers Sixty-Five at Baselworld this past March? In response to positive accolades from press and buyers alike, Oris has seen fit to expand the line with a new Divers Sixty-Five model featuring a beautifully retro-toned grey and blue dial. With a somewhat softer appeal than its bla [...]

As a watch lover, I have pretty much always been attracted to diving watches. It was not until recently, however, that I was actually able to dive. After a fantastic time in Grand Cayman learning to dive and becoming certified by Divetech at the Cobalt Coast dive resort, an entire n [...]

As part of Oris ongoing relationship with Audi Sport, for 2015, we get the Oris Audi Sport GMT watch that offers one of the more simple driving-themed GMT watches around. In fact, at a glance, the watch doesnt necessarily look like it is a GMT at all.
