And finally, to offer extreme legibility, the diving scale on the ceramic bezel insert has been presented in white and yellow, two colors that are easily visible underwater. For more details, please visit the brand’s website. Starting MSRP for the Oris Aquis Date Calibre 400 41.5mm Bi-Color stands at 4,400 as of press time, rising to 4,600 for bracelet-equipped examples. Furthermore, the bezel grip is made from rubber to make it easy to operate the bezel underwater with the gloves on. The Oris Aquis Date Calibre 400 41.5mm Bi-Color is available now through authorized dealers. This mechanism helps the wearer adjust and lock the bezel in place to read the remaining time with absolute certainty. To ensure the safety of the diver, the Aquis Pro comes equipped with a patented rotation safety system, aka RSS.

In addition to the dimension, special attention has been paid to the rotating bezel on top which plays a pivotal role in timing a dive. A serious job like saturation diving needs serious equipment, and the first thing that you notice on the Aquis Pro in this regard is its large Black PVD coated Titanium case, that comes in at 49.5mm in diameter to make sure it sits comfortably on the wrist of a Diver wearing a wet suit. The Oris Aquis Pro, as the name suggests, is a watch that has been designed to cater to the needs of saturation divers who work in extreme conditions hundreds of feet down below the surface of the water. Instead, we devised a much more reliable system based on the slide bearing concept that only winds in one direction. And now Oris has decided to give its flagship 1000-meter dive watch, the Aquis Pro Date, the Caliber 400 upgrade. Beat Fischli, Oris’s Chief Operating Officer whose team was responsible for the caliber 400 describes the system they designed thusly: ‘Typically, the rotating mass, or rotor, sits on a ball bearing and winds in both directions. The first watch to be powered by the caliber 400 was a beautiful blue dial Aquis. Oris caused a stir in the world of horology when it announced its new innovative in-house caliber 400 last year.
