The first Oris diver’s watch of 1965 was designed to equip a diver with a functional, dependable tool watch that would perform reliably in the hazardous conditions found underwater. That bold, utilitarian ethos is celebrated in this contemporary update of that same watch, reborn as the Oris Divers Sixty-Five, with the addition of a bronze outer ring to the watch’s uni-directional rotating bezel. Bronze is a functional, durable material that patinates naturally with age, and it tells the story of Oris’s industrial roots and its close relationship with nature. But it also gives this 42.00 mm version of the Divers Sixty-Five a chic twist, in keeping with contemporary trends. Not that this watch is limited to being ‘of the moment’ – its corrosionresistant stainless steel case, scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass and water resistance to 100 metres make it a timeless, reliable piece of equipment that, where properly maintained, will serve its owner for generations.
