Summertime and the livin’ is easy… As the holiday season is fast approaching, it’s all about making your style cool and effortless, but also having watches that can survive adventures (a splash of mojito, perhaps?). To help you out, we have rounded up 5 watches that will make great daily beaters for sunny days, without […]
Oris expands its Big Crown Pointer Date collection with the incorporation of this model with an oxblood dial. An unusual colour that is rarely seen in watchmaking, we think it works extremely well in this context. The technical specifications, the styling of the 40mm steel model and even the price have not altered, but the […]
For several years now, Oris has been engaged on a mission to save and protect the oceans – which makes sense given the brand’s forte for dive watches. Following the recent introductions of the Oris Great Barrier Reef Limited Edition III and the Oris Clean Ocean Limited Edition (both explained in this video), the brand now […]
Bronze watches have developed into a major trend over the past few years. A tough and strong metal, bronze lends itself perfectly to robust watches. Most importantly, it offers something different, a burst of colour that changes over time with the unique patina developing randomly on the surface of the metal. And if you’re bold […]
After Oris introduced the Bronze Carl Brashear Chronograph earlier in 2018, and after the brand announced teaming up with Swiss retailer Bucherer to created a new episode of the “Blue Editions”, we knew that the standard version of the Divers Sixty Five Chronograph was about to come. So end of the teasing: here is the […]
A moon phase is certainly a nice, slightly poetic complication, annual or perpetual calendars are the best when it comes to displaying the date on a watch, and a tourbillon is a superb demonstration of watchmaking “savoir-faire.” Yet, it is hard to beat a GMT or dual-time complication when it comes to practicality. With our […]
To many, the notion of elegant, dressy watches usually means beautiful finishes, high-end movements and precious metal cases. In short: expensive pieces. Yet, Baselworld 2019 proved that you don’t necessarily need to spend a 5-figure amount to look classy. So, in order to avoid going to the bank for a mortgage or to enter a […]
With the Swatch Group gone from Baselworld 2019, the “Value Proposition” category, meaning watches under EUR 2,500, has been seriously affected. Brands like Tissot, Mido, Hamilton or Longines usually perform well in this segment. Nevertheless, this doesn’t mean we haven’t seen some cool things at Baselworld this year (and around the fair too). Here are […]
The Oris stand was buzzing at Baselworld 2019. The brand’s high-performance dive watches were the stars of the show with a surprising and very cool iteration of the Sixty-Five in a retro two-tone bronze and steel case and bracelet, and two Aquis limited edition models dedicated to ocean environmental projects, the Aquis Clean Ocean and the Aquis Great Barrier Reef III. Fleshing out the Aquis collection with a relevant and practical function for globetrotters, the brand presented its Aquis Diver GMT Date.
It was just a matter of time before the regular stainless steel version of the Oris Divers Sixty-Five Chronograph would make its debut. We knew it after seeing the Bronze Carl Brashear model, we just didn’t know how and when… The wait is over, as the first steel edition of the Sixty-Five Chronograph is out, […]
