Lug to lug at 48.1mm Case thickness at 13.5mm Or put it this way, if I had to decide between the sizes and with both having Calibre 400, I’m more inclined to the new 41.5mm size.įor those interested to see more dimensions, have a look at the pictures below where I measure the new watch under calipers, including case thickness and lug to lug measurements. The 41.5mm size is by no means small, being plenty big enough to offer supreme legibility if I do go diving with it. With this in mind, even I have to admit, that no matter how manly I consider myself to be, sometimes, a smaller watch overall is more suitable. The amazing Oris Calibre 400 now in a smaller case.
#Oris calibre 400 41.5mm full#
Personally, I’m not opposed to wearing a 43mm Aquis diver everyday, but I have to admit, there are moments when the size and weight of one (especially on a full stainless steel bracelet) can be a touch overbearing, not to mention the propensity of a larger watch to just get in the way more often, and have a bigger chance of knocking into surrounding objects. Three dial variations – green, anthracite and blue. It’s a move that coincides with the prevailing trend towards smaller case sizes, and even so Oris generally likes to offer different watch sizes when it makes sense, which is a good strategy since it gives customers more options. The new Oris Aquis is 41.5mm wide measured at the bezel.Īgainst this backdrop, it’s no surprise that a new 41.5mm sized version would be introduced. That watch has gone to become hugely desired for the aforementioned reasons and it’s easy to understand why. Oris chose an Aquis diving watch to launch the movement, specifically the 43mm version, and in so doing made it a landmark piece in the brand’s history.
