oris aquis date calibre 400 rubber strap

The Oris Aquis has a case shape that is rather unique, of course. This watch is no different when it comes to those features. A uni-directional bezel, 300 meters of water resistance, screw-down crown, screw case back, and a very legible dial.

What they all have in common are the typical features for diving purposes. From all sorts of brands and in all sorts of price ranges. I am not a diver, but I do have and have had my share of divers watches. And here it is, the Oris Aquis Calibre 400. It is interesting that Oris decided to introduce the movement first, and a few weeks later introduce the first watch to be powered by it. If you’re a watch fanatic, you haven’t missed the introduction of the new Oris movement: Calibre 400. That watch was a bit smaller, and there are some aesthetic differences, but it just reminded me of that one. The dial (and watch) look quite similar to their Aquis Ocean Cleanup limited edition. I know it should be all about the in-house caliber 400, but I’ll tell you that it took a few minutes before taking the watch off again to have a glance at the new Oris movement. Funny, when I unboxed this new Oris Aquis Calibre 400 for this review, I couldn’t stop looking at the dial.
