I’m no movement boffin but I’m pretty sure that the Cal. It’s pretty exiting that a diver was the chosen one for the Caliber 400, too. For better comparison, 10 days translates to 240 hours making. A hand-wound movement, the calibre 115 offers a power reserve of approximately 10 days. Worth mentioning is the Oris 115 movement. The automatic Oris 400 is an in-house movement that provides a power reserve of 120 hours.
Thoughts? It’s about time that Oris did a bit more than simply plonking their famous red rotor on someone else’s movement. The Oris ProPilot X is equipped with two in-house movements. It will be available as of November 2020. The new Oris Aquis Caliber 400 has a Swiss retail price of 3’200CHF on its steel bracelet or 3’100CHF on its rubber diver’s strap. Despite this, the watch retains the typical depth-rating of an Aquis Date, 300 meters.įurther diver’s features include: an integrated screw-down crown, a unidirectional rotational diver’s bezel with a scratchproof ceramic inlay with a dive-time scale as well as SuperLumiNova applied to the watch’s hands and markers.įinally the watch boasts one final innovation, Oris’ newest patented development, the Quick Strap Change system, engineered so that a bracelet or strap could easily be released by simply lifting a small flap on its underside. Meanwhile on back of the watch is a Sapphire crystal case-back (the biggest one ever made by Oris) affording a view of the Caliber 400 in all its glory. Also while the date aperture is larger than usual, it gets a subtle black disc.
Obviously aside from the new movement, this Aquis Date sets its self apart from standard models with a number of differences the first of which hints that there is something special beating within are the words, 5 days found on the watch’s gradient blue dial. This would explain why the first model, to be equipped with Oris’ new in-house caliber is of course a diver. So the Caliber 400 recorded just one third of the deviation permitted after exposure to more than 11 times the magnetic force.
#ORIS CALIBRE 400 WATCHES ISO#
To give you an idea of how remarkable this is the most recent ISO 764 standards for anti-magnetic watches requires them to qualify as such with an accuracy to within 30 seconds per day after exposure to just 200 Gauss. 400 was rigorously tested in this instance by the renowned Laboratoire Dubois, where it deviated by less than 10 seconds per day after exposure to 2,250 Gauss. 400 has at its disposal, is its exceptional level of anti-magnetic-resistance thanks to its use of non-magnetic materials some 30 non-ferrous and anti-magnetic components were used, including a Silicon escape wheel and anchor.Īs you might expect with a movement of this caliber (yeah I know), the Cal. Oris propels their humble Aquis Date to the next level and beyond with their new in-house automatic movement, the Caliber 400, which boasts magnetic-resistance, a power reserve of five-days and a 10-year warranty!Įngineered from the ground up, one of the most pertinent features (at least as far as diving is concerned) that the Cal.
