The Watch

Founded in 1904, Oris is a watchmaking brand that crafts beautiful, precise, high-quality mechanical timepieces. Its premium collections are prized for the quality of their materials and their refined finishes. Oris introduces a new edition of the Aquis model under reference 01 400 7790 4157-07 8 23 02PEB, featuring striking aesthetic details. This dive watch boasts a one-of-a-kind case with timeless elegance and a sophisticated look. Crafted in stainless steel, the multi-piece construction is elevated by brushed and polished finishes that give the design a sleek, refined edge. Its round case measures 43.50 mm in diameter, making it a great fit for men's wrists while ensuring optimal comfort. The case is paired with a unidirectional knurled bezel with a slight rake that follows the case contours perfectly. It features a green ceramic insert marked with Arabic numerals and detailed 0-to-15-minute graduations, plus a luminescent marker. The bezel neatly frames the double-domed sapphire crystal, which gives the watch a vintage-inspired look that's genuinely beautiful. It fully protects the dial from scratches, while the anti-reflective coating ensures outstanding legibility in any light. The case is completed by a substantial crown with a well-executed knurled grip, making it easy to set the hands and date. This screw-down winding crown is securely protected by screw-fixed guards. On the caseback, a screw-down cover with a transparent sapphire crystal window lets you admire the intricate movement inside - including the skeletonized rotor with its central Oris shield logo. This caseback guarantees a solid water resistance of 30 ATM.

The Dial

Elegant and meticulously crafted, the dial strikes a perfect balance across all its components. Crisp and clean, it showcases a stunning green base brought to life by a beautifully executed sunray finish. This backdrop creates a striking contrast with the silver baton indices with beveled edges. These are filled with Super-LumiNova® to ensure easy time-reading even in low-light conditions. A minute track runs along the outer edge of the dial, interrupted at 6 o'clock where a date window with a black background keeps you up to date on the day's date. Flanking the window, the "Swiss Made" inscription serves as a reminder of this timepiece's origins. Bold, luminescent hands complete the picture. The hour and minute hands echo the shape of the indices and are paired with an apple-shaped seconds hand also treated with Super-LumiNova®. Finally, the brand signs its masterpiece with its name beneath 12 o'clock and notes the collection, water resistance, and power reserve above 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this model is a high-performance Swiss automatic movement with an impressive 120-hour power reserve - that's 5 full days. This is the Oris caliber 400, highly anti-magnetic up to 2,250 gauss thanks to the use of special alloys. The caliber delivers an accuracy of -3/+5 seconds per day, making it extremely reliable and precise. It beats at 28,800 (4Hz) vibrations per hour and offers a dependable analog three-hand display with a date complication. The caliber also features a fine-timing device and a stop-seconds function.

The Bracelet

This watch is paired with a bracelet that's as tough as it is comfortable, with a solid build. Crafted in silver-tone stainless steel and finished with polished and brushed surfaces, it's made to impress. Its three-row link construction ends in a push-button butterfly clasp with a patented quick-release mechanism. The bracelet also features a quick-change system for easy swapping. Worth noting: it can be adjusted using the three small holes in the clasp.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 30 atmospheres - that's 300 meters - this watch is ready for anything from splashing around in the pool with the kids to serious scuba diving. The deep sea and all its creatures better watch out, because you're coming for them. The Ocarat team wishes you happy exploring - just remember: don't touch the pushers or crown on the way down!
