Oris 39

Oris shifts towards everyday watches as its latest divers’ piece slips under the cuff

Oris has squeezed its former 43.5mm Oris Aquis into a smaller 39.5mm case. The downsize comes as Oris wanted to make a divers’ watch that can also go under the cuff of a dress shirt.

The smaller divers’ collection comes with either a blue or black dial. They can be worn on a rubber strap or steel bracelet.

Inside the new models is an automatic mechanical movement that provides the watch with a sweeping seconds hand and a date indication at 6 o’clock.

The stainless steel case is water-resistant to 300 metres and is equipped with a robust uni-directional rotating diver’s bezel for safely measuring dive times. The bezel has the added benefit of either a polished or matt black ceramic insert.

Swiss retail price is CHF 1,750 (around £1,335) on a strap and CHF 1,950 (around £1,485) on a stainless steel bracelet.
