Awesome video bud! I agree with one of the other comments where this is the best video RUclips on this watch! Because of this video I’m definitely pulling the trigger on the purchase for this watch. Thank you!
people laugh at 100 meters but seriously, who is going that deep.. its insanely deep... also, any pro diver is using a divers digital watch, not analog. come on people.
100 meters doesn’t mean you can go 100 meter deep. It means it has a resistance of 10 atm, which is enough for swimming but not really enough for scuba diving.
@@simonpijnenburg4406 incorrect. They are factory tested to 10bar of pressure, which is that experienced at 100m depth. It's just false advertising if it meant anything else but what it advertises.
To not spread misinformation, your statement is incorrect. It’s tested for 100m without moving. but when you dive you expose it to swimming and moving underwater which compromises the 100m. That’s why it’s only recommended to swim with 100m and not dive.
I really like the dark green dialled version of this. It's makes a welcome change from the veritable sea of blue-dialled dive watches, which it seems like almost every watch brand now feels compelled to release. Pity about the relatively short 38-hour power reserve. In this day and age, with so many models offering 70 hours power reserve (or more in some noteworthy cases) one might feel a bit short-changed in that department. Still, like you pointed out, the Seillita movement is a tried and true reliable workhouse of a movement, and in terms of ease of regulating and servicing, those can easily be done by any competent watch repair technician, and affordable too. I think this one will definitely go on my short list! 😃😃😃👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I like the fact that you show the watch on your wrist as it looks great on that rubber strap compared to the steel oyster bracelet. I agree the colour contrast with the rubber strap really makes the overall watch pop! In terms of the steel oyster bracelet look I do prefer it much better on the Tudor BB 58. But overall I am more drawn aesthetically towards this Oris 65 on the rubber strap compared to the Tudor BB 58 after seeing your vid!
Beautiful without a doubt. But I think it’s beauty is held back by the dial material, thus giving it reflections to a degree which takes away from its tool nature and aesthetic... to my eye at least, even cheapens it’s otherwise reassuring good looks. On the whole though, Oris have hit a home run with this model. Size, heritage and functionality just perfect 👌🏻
P K Thank you! I had the BB58 in hands before buying this Oris actually. It’s nice but looked a bit too small and lacks a date. It’s also quite conservative but is very nice. The Oris works for me because it’s thinner, lighter, perfectly sized, has a well-placed discreet date, a comfortable rubber strap, straight hands and overall a cool retro modern vibe. Overall a great package.
@@UptickWatchReviews 4 years on, how is the patina now? I'm interested in picking this up but there's not many pictures showing how the bezel patinas over time
Michael Kim So far it hasn’t really changed at all. I guess that since it’s a vintage style diver it’ll look just as good with a few scratches and some patina on the bronze.
I saw this video over 10 timea. Is the best for this watch. I bought it before 6 months. What about the patina of the bezel through the years? How it looks. Thanks a lit
I love the aesthetic of the watch but I do wish they put a higher end movement in it. For the price, they are just using a basic Sellita SW200. I like mine, but just a thought...
Giang Vu What alternative can you suggest? I don’t think there exists a high-production reliable adjustable to a respectable degree slim automatic 28800 bph easily serviced around the world with high torque and a date wheel caliber out there. The next best is the new Tudor and that would bring the watch above the $2500 level. The economics of watchmaking are fairly straightforward in this regard.
@@UptickWatchReviews Shoot, I could forgive Oris for using the Sellita SW200 if they’re intent on doing so for some reason, but I’d like to see them use a Top Or Chronometer Grade rather than the Standard Grade SW200 they choose to use. Just seems ridiculous to me to use a Standard Grade movement in a $2000 watch. But even still, i’ll definately own one here soon even still.
@@giangvu7902 my Oris 65 is consistently +1.75 to +2.00 secs/day. Chronometer grade movement. There is no point nor purpose in anything else unless you want silicon balance spring. Then...I will buy one when Oris makes it.
Curious about any further thoughts you may have about the ML Aikon after living with it for a while. I know you loved it in the original review but curious if anything has changed? Any anything annoying about the watch? I am debating purchasing that exact model.
rbeylin Great question: I love it I love it I love it! It feels great on the wrist and the looks are so sharp. It feels so luxurious that I just can’t take it off my wrist once I put it on. It’s one of those watches that you’d think you might get tired of easily once the novelty passes but instead I appreciate what the company has managed to create every time I see it. I’m personally way past comparing it to a Royal Oak. Whatever anyone else thinks of the resemblance is their own sad little first world problem. I’ve had the RO on the wrist not long ago and frankly it made me feel even better about my purchase, especially knowing how relatively fragile those are. Any negative would be that after a long day, if you’ve walked a lot, it could dig into the wrist when your arm is down. So the other day I’d just hold my arm up, grabbing my backpack over my shoulder, or grabbing the subway handle just to provide some relief. But it had been a long day, so otherwise it’s fine. And as much as I don’t fancy winding a Sellita all that much it performs great and setting the time is very sharp, as is the date display. If you’ve wanted a well-made integrated bracelet modern watch, this is as affordable as it gets without feeling cheap in any way.
That's great to hear. Really appreciate you taking the time to reply. At this point I'm just debating of whether to save up and get a Speedmaster or just order the ML which is less than half price. The ML just looks so unique and well made that I am leaning towards that route. Again, thanks for the review and reply.
rbeylin I happen to have the Speedy on the wrist just now. I actually slept with it on because the lume is so sharp on it and it just feels like warm velvet on the wrist. Funny story, I was checking out a Datejust model at Rolex the other day and the salesperson complimented me on the Aikon. It made me realize I had on a much more cool modern timepiece than the fairly old-fashioned one I was contemplating. Now, Speedy or Aikon. Love both, similar size and they’re complementary. The Speedy is more “aikonic” and discreet but double the price (if you get it from a grey dealer, prices are going back up a bit though). You can’t really go wrong with either but the Aikon can’t really be your only watch while the Speedy could if you don’t really need the date (I get nervous without a date display personally). And go for the classic Moonwatch, you’ll never regret it. Every other variation of it isn’t as “definitive”. But if you just want a flashier piece in your collection, then grab the Aikon. I love the blue dial but if you buy it in black you will have a good compromise. Don’t pay full retail. Even ADs should give you around 20% off.
Yes, that makes sense. The Speedy is definitely a legendary watch and I think a must-have in any collection. That's an interesting point you make about the Aikon being flashy. I think I saw a BBG terminal in one of your videos so I assume we're in the same industry. I don't really want to walk around the office or meet clients with anything that's too flashy on the wrist. In terms of pricing, you're 100% correct. The Aikon I can get at an AD for around 32% off retail. And pricing on Speedmasters seems to be going through the roof lately. Decisions, decisions.
rbeylin Indeed it’s the good old Bloomberg because something has to finance this expensive hobby ;-) Good point about meetings. I would avoid the Aikon for interviews and be selective on meetings while the Speedy is a good all-rounder. Having said that the Aikon slips easy under any cuff. Both are good watches to engage in a casual conversation to break the ice if you’re meeting someone who shares the same interest, which is 90% of the guys in this industry.

Thank you, only good review on YT of this one! Nice alternative to Tudor Black Bay 58 imo.

I got this exact watch on its steel bracelet recently. It truly is. I actually found the Oris to be a little more accessible and easy to wear!
How you like it so far and the bronze how it aged? Im thinking 42mm how it aged after a year??
This definitely gonna be my first automatic.
Buy it. The built quality of oris is amazing. Dont go for other over priced luxury brands which are own by swatch.
Beautiful watch and great way to present it, congrats! How is the patina on the bronze bezel looking after 5 months time?
I haven’t really worn it much so it’s unchanged so far.
@@UptickWatchReviews 4 years on, how is the patina now? I'm interested in picking this up but there's not many pictures showing how the bezel patinas over time
Liking the oris a lot, especially the movember edition or the red edition but the price is a little high for a sellita.
Great review. I want this watch! Can you reveal where you bought it on FB?
lbrastaman It was just a private seller on my local “marketplace” selling his own watch actually.
How is the bronze patina now? I like this model but feel the dulled bronze bezel would look hideous against the polished case sides.

Bro better mido tribute or oris diver 65?
Do you still have this watch?
Hmm... This or the Yema Superman Heritage?
How many clicks is the bezel? 60 or 120?
tonester99 It’s 120.
I owned the brown leather version. Lovely watch but was not impressed with the Selita movement accuracy.
Is the strap comfortable to wear? Like very soft???
To be honest, not really. I much prefer the Seiko silicone straps. This rubber looks great but gets irritating after a while.
In my opinion, it feels great.
Grippy rubber doesnt do it for me
Con này bao nhiêu vậy anh
I wish they had added bevelled lugs
"Domed acrylic chrystals of the past" would be more accurate...
Is the dial black or dark blue ?
Philippe Stock Hi Philippe, it’s black.
lug to lug size ??????????????
