Why We Love it

Oris is a darling amongst watch enthusiasts today.

With hits such as the Diver 65, Pointer Date, and Big Crown Pilot line headlining their collection, a slew of awesome special limited-edition models released annually, and a decidedly community-facing way of doing business rounding them out, Oris is appreciated — if not beloved — by beginner and tenured collectors alike.

For divers, the Aquis is the star of the Oris catalog. Available in multiple sizes and featuring highly legible dials and automatic movements, Aquis models can compete with the best that high-end Swiss brands have to offer. Oris also releases special-edition variants of the Aquis in collaboration with important partners, of which the Clean Ocean is a notable standout. 

This particular Aquis Clean Ocean Limited Edition features a 39.5mm stainless steel case, a sapphire crystal, a signed crown, a blue ceramic unidirectional bezel, a sunburst blue Super-LumiNova dial with matching hands, and an integrated stainless steel bracelet with a signed clasp. The star of the show, however, is actually the watch’s case back — it’s made from recycled plastic bottles and features its factory case back sticker.

With its included ephemera, this is a timepiece whose value cannot be overstated. Where else can you find such a Swiss-made, professional dive watch at this price? 

Don’t miss out on it!

Brand Story

+
Like so many other Swiss watchmaking dynasties, Oris was nearly put out of business by the Quartz Crisis — the proliferation of cheap, mass-produced, battery-powered watches from Asia. But, much to the delight of mechanical watch devotees the world over, the company endured.

Founded in Hölstein in 1904, Oris quickly grew to become a horological powerhouse, employing some 300 people by 1911 across multiple facilities. By 1936, upon the opening of its own dial factory in Biel/Bienne, Oris was producing nearly all its own components in-house. In 1938 the firm debuted its signature Big Crown pilot’s watch, which forms the basis of the brand’s modern catalog. With its dealer network compromised by the Second World War, Oris survived by manufacturing alarm clocks.

The turning point came when the Quartz Crisis hit Switzerland in the late 1960s, by which time Oris employed some 800 people and manufactured 1.2 million watches per year, making it one of the largest watch manufacturers in the world. By 1970, in a bid for survival, the company joined the precursor to the Swatch Group and began manufacturing quartz watches. However in 1982, the company’s managing director and head of marketing took over the firm, rendering them independent once more. They abandoned quartz altogether by the 1990s.

In 2014, Oris introduced its first in-house mechanical movement in decades in celebration of 110 years of watchmaking. In 2020, they introduced the Calibre 400, a movement with a 5-day power reserve and a 10-year recommended service interval. Today the company makes professional diving, aviation, motoring and other adventure watches for enthusiasts at relatively affordable price points, while their support of conservation initiatives the world over continues to delight their highly dedicated fans.
