ORIS Aquis Date Caliber 400 BI-COLOR 41.5mm

Oris’s combines subtle touches of gold with vibrant blasts of color (rubber variants that is) for those Sun kissed summer days ahead. 

The Aquis Date Caliber 400 41.5mm makes a dazzling return with two new executions that have been gloriously garnished with touches of solid gold.

Both the forest green and deep blue variants boast an 18-carat gold finish on the outer edge of their unidirectional rotating diver’s bezels as well as gold-colored hands and indexes. 

Even the minutes scale on the green or blue ceramic bezel is golden, completing a cohesive yet coherent look that elevates the Aquis to new heights.

Both watches come with a Stainless steel bracelet and a rubber strap in matching green or blue that can be easily switched using Oris’ patented Quick Strap Change system, without the need for a tool. Housed within the wearable 41.5mm case is the consummate, Oris Caliber 400 automatic, which provides the watch with a high degree of anti-magnetic resistance, five-days of autonomy and 10-year recommended service intervals.

As with all Caliber 400 Series watches, both pieces are warrantied for a full decade AKA 10 years when registered with MyOris. 

The two new Aquis Date Caliber 400 41.5mm Bi-Color watches are available as of June 2022 and have a Swiss MSRP of 4’000CHF (steel) or 3’900CHF (rubber).

Thoughts? At first glance, I kinda’ sniffed at these because it’s too much color and too much gold for me; however under closer inspection there’s much to like about these, they work. 

But what do you think?
