I know what you're thinking! He's bloody well flipped his 3rd Oris 65 and bought his 4th! Well, not yet. I like the 'BICO', more than I thought I waws going to after my initial impressions, but I'm not for flipping my bronze bezel edition quite yet..... Cheers, Jody

Perfect time for a subscriber give away Jody..Just tell Oris it was lost in the post on the way back.
Being "Mr X" Jody should give away one of his 200 Rolex watches.
Jody, I hope you have a comfy garden shed, because that “green stripe” on your wrist indicates you’ll be spending your nights out there ! 😆
This is one of those that I bet look way better in person than on video.
I love the way bronze patina on your Oris adds to the vintage aesthetic. Yours is absolutely lovely...though I agree in green this one will be pretty tempting. Thank you for another excellent review :)
Naaarrr, keep the one you have, it’s perfect. You’ll have serious seller’s remorse if you flip it Jodie. 🤔
Excellent video brotha!! This is one that really caught my eye when I first saw pictures. Hope to get one in hand as well to check out
Thanks Bruce!
Was able to handle this very piece couple of weeks ago and almost bought it. An absolute winner and the best of their new releases, I think I’ll add it to the collection at some stage. Great video Jody!
Another beautiful Oris, another great review. Thanks Jody. 👍
I fell in love with the original 40mm black dial Oris 65 and wouldn't swap for any of these others.
Another amazing video once again. These videos almost got me to pull the trigger on the bronze bezel!
Great video and review!
And a beautiful watch!
I wasn't too sure about a partially bronze watch. But, this one seems to have grown on me and I think it's pretty cool now. Thanks for another great review.
Watch box got the gentry. If Oris don't get you, they're crazy!!! I can actually picture seeing you on adverts with a Oris on the wrist!
Another great review of a spectacular watch brand. You have convinced me that Oris as a brand offers the "Big 3" qualifications for me in a $1,000+ watch. Unique Styling, history of reliability and innovation, and an in house movement. I'm still in love with your original Black and Blue Oris 65.
I have, however gotten over my own lust for bronze watches in general and if I did purchase one in the future it would most likely be a pocket watch.
BTW, did you mention the other day, that you have done over 300 reviews already? If so Congratulations! Your reviews are the best on the net and continue to improve as you continue on.
contemplating between this and the bronze bezel one you own for my own graduation gift! which do you recommend? love your videos as always
Love the look of the bronze with this form factor! Do you think Oris will make a full bronze run of this model? I loved the look of the limited edition Carl Brashear one and would love to see that in a less limited run!
Nice review and definitely I will buy the 65 Bico !!
I own the 65 green face and love it my first proper mechanical watch
I just got a bico. It’s awesome!
I have the bronze bezel, same the one you had. I am considering buying the bronze bracelet and was wondering how well they match. Have you tried that combination yourself?
Hi Jody, thanks for the review, but I’m still confused if I should buy the two tone Oris 65 or the bronze bezel with green dial, please reply ,... take care mate
Another great review. As a guy that's never tried an Oris, your experienced thoughts on the subject match my inexperienced thoughts. Price seems a bit much for specs and overall package... BUT it's just so darn perfect and I don't think I've found anything else that gets so much right that I love. I'd want to think I could find something I like as much in the vast microbrand market or with one of the excellent midsize German makers (already love the Archimede that I own), but these Oris 65's are something special. I like this particular one a ton. Only hesitation, also as you mentioned, would be the bronze on skin contact. However, I absolutely love the overall look. Also, as you said, my favorite date location is at 6 o'clock, so that's a big plus here.
Just as you said, if I graduate beyond the $500 range and want a special higher-priced watch, these will absolutely be on my list. I may need to find one in town and try it on to see if I should put it on my long-term grail list.
Sorry for the excessive praise here. I like critical comments that I hadn't thought of before, but it's fun sometimes, too, to have a video that's a giant agreement-fest.
Love Oris. Fantastic brand, good morals, full of passions and great watches
The syncing of both watches second hands’ kept my OCD at bay.
Great review mate. Really like it, reminds me of a modern day turnograph 👍🏻
i purchased a vostok. removed the bezel knowing underneath the s/s plating it was brass. i got some very fine sandpaper & sanded off the s/s plate & now i have a vostok with a brass bezel & it looks in my opinion , great
I have considered doing the same with one of my Timex watches, as they also often use brass as a base metal.
@@charlie-obrien go for it, long it is brass underneath. will look good
I dissembled my gold tone Vostok Komandirskie and dropped the case and bezel into a hydrochloric acid bath for a few hours. The gold finish came off leaving just the brass. I placed the case & bezel in a sealed container with one smashed boiled egg. The patina effect started almost immediately. After a few hours I resembled the watch and it looks great. It has scratched my bronze watch itch only for only $50 and one boiled egg.
My Oris 65 got me into watches!
Nice review Jody - I agree, that two tone in green would be a killer. Personally this watch solves one of my major issues with the 65 - the black bezel insert - which always looks a bit tacked on, like someone over ordered on the black so they've just stuck it on every watch.
I realize it has nothing to do with the video but I just found a sarz 005. I love the look of the watch and it ticks quite a few boxes. After shipping it would be 250 u.s. dollars. Do you think this is just too much for a Seiko 5 sport? Any help would be appreciated. I'm very new two watches. I don't want to get ripped off. It's currently in my cart just waiting to click purchase haha. Thank you.
Thank you for reviewing this one! Now how about the omega seamaster 300 to round out the vintage inspired diver thing, please? I’m sure you can get your hands on one and I haven’t seen a good review yet
Great review Jody. I have the first 65 you reviewed and I am keeping it 😜you’re right, for all of its shortcomings, the 65 has a charisma other watches do not have 😊
That watch is stunning!!
Congratulations, mate 😀
The diver 65 Bronze bezel is my grail 😍😍😍
I've been VERY tempted by one of these for a while but as it would be my first £1000 watch I'm worried the bronze isn't quite wearable. If I had multiple watches of similar quality I would definitely have it but I might just go for the bronze bezel for now.
There is no better man for Oris to lend a 65 to review. You get a great review and 50% chance he will just buy it afterward lol
Looking forward for that bronze Zelos Horizons GMT review :-)
Your previous videos made my buy the bronze bezel version. I just sold it to fund a grail and I already miss it. I might wait a bit and buy another one! I think I caught the Oris 65 bug and I blame you Jody.
This is the most beautiful watch I've ever seen. 😮❤
I'm about to buy my first "luxury watch" in some days and I'm sure it is going to be an Oris. But I'm confused between this particular watch and the Aquis Small Seconds in Orange and Black..
Wouldn't you eventually get the green bronze goo on your wrist from the midlinks?
With just 10 atm. Are you willing to swim with it in the sea? Or it's more for a every day use ?
You’re right that bronze with green would be great
I just wish it had exhibition case back, would make perfect
Tried one of the se on last Saturday. I’m afraid to say I was a tad underwhelmed. Didn’t like the dial as much as my Deauville blue one, and it just looked dirty. 😟
Think I’m going to have to go and find a dark blue and black one instead. 👍
I have the BICO Bronze and it is AMAZING! Nudging on the price is right: I got it new for 1900 US just for asking!
Also, prior to buying that, I bought the full black dial version of the Deauville (the Arabic 12, 3, 6, 9) and LOVE that one too. I truly believe I’ll keep these two permanently. This is after me downsizing my collection by a whopping 33 watches!! Now, I’m down to (and want to remain at) 12 solid timepieces. And, in the future, if I ever want to add another watch, then I will need to sell one from the collection to make room.
That would look so much better with a bronze bezel to go with the insert, really looks vintage nice!
dont you have the watch backwards on the timegrapher? Should have the crown on the plastic part
JODY I am spreading the word. I ran across a watch and directed the owners to get it to you for review. Brand is Bertucci they have one without spring bars with fixed bars. I know you will love that is a default NATO.
Oh, good! A giveaway. How do I sign up?
Much prefer my 65 with the bronze bezel ring. Never liked two tone bracelets to be honest. The Oris 65's are great watches. That one with a green dial would look better.
Good video as usual 👍
Does anyone make a better domed sapphire than Oris? Genuine question... asking for a mate ;)
1:16
I'm actually thinking you should do a "State Of The Collection" video!
Not bad, but the Deauville dial remains my favorite Oris 65.
Now that is a beautiful Oris. Isn't this the one the CEO wears?
Keep the Oris you currently have. You need to review the Squalematic Atmos 60 for comparison.
Can you review the lobinni brand watch.
Stunning, can’t wait till they make it in 36mm
Ok Jody I now like bronze watches that one has converted me 🙂
Surely that strap is going to leave green marks on your wrist? Most manufacturers make sure that none of the bronze makes skin contact to avoid this, seems like Oris didn't get the memo!
First time I see bronze on a bracelet. Most of these bronze dial watches are on some sort of vintage leather. Though different not sure how I feel about it.
The Oris 65 is a very nice watch for me, but I actually prefer the stainless steel version more than any other bronze version. Bronze probably isn't for me.
I love all the variants of the 65. I think it's best not to think of it as a dive watch though...it's a lot more flimsy than something like an Aquis.
Nice looking but I prefer the version you own. Jody by the way after looking at your vid again on the Casio Royale I finally ordered the steel bracelet version. It took a lot because I prefer dive watches.
I've got the steel bracelet Casio Royale too. Solidly in my rotation for a work timepiece. Gets a lot of love for its retro beauty.
I still think the Deauville was the best of the bunch, but I am not a bronze fan. I will be curious to see the bracelet when it has some green corrosion on it.
Currently my favourite watch, seriously considering it even at £1600.
I want the new blue dial in all SS. That’s the next one for me!
2nd...don’t go watch shopping...got a few in the basket...trigger finger twitchy after this. Still liking the Tudor black bay bronze...
Would love to see this on a navy leather strap, following the dial colour
I see a new Oris
That watch 🙏🏼😍
The sofas looking good Jody. 😰
If anyone is located or passing by Kuwait, I bought mine here (leather strap though, not bracelet) for the equivalent of 1138 USD. I don't know how they managed such a good price for a new watch model but they did. For such a price the watch is worth it.
Great review as ever mate ,though I preferred your original purchase but the non arabic dials really do look so much better and you picked a beauty,
ps slightly off topic but have you heard of the youtuber Richard Perrett Watchmaker ?
He isnt competition but does the odd review of favourites like the Vostock Komandirskie and Invicta pro diver and gives them a thorough watchmakers breakdown and very interesting indeed and some surprising results too
I like the one you have and really don t like that new one oris sent you. By the way... i liked much more your first one than your second one... but the third one with bronze bezel looks great, don't change it!
At 2:00 the two watches are set to within a second of one another. This appeases my OCD.
Many thanks.
A bit too much bronze for me. I like your model much more!
very nice i like... just not a fan of the bronze on the strap..... cheers
Love it this watch, but no really crazy about the two tone bracelet. Blue and bronze is killer though. And once again the best tee shirts in the business.
Your Perlative Cerenometer has a green dial! You're all set!
Resist Resist Jody. Not a massive lover of the 65 but a massive fan of Oris. Yours has that ‘look closely I have a bronze bezel’ appeal if you have to have some bronze. The new one just looks knackered to me but I guess that’s the appeal for some. Bi colour will always be a late 80’s early 90’s thing for me as I had a Raymond Weil like that then. There is no doubt it’s a great watch but getting a little pricey for what it is too.
Interesting, but doesn't quite do it for me. Like the one with the bronze bezel with the black insert better.
I love it
I wish more watches would utilize sharp horned lugs like Rolex/Tudor do. aesthetically (imo) squared off lugs are just not as appealing..
In my opinion Oris 65 with Arabic numerals on the dial looks better.
Next up: the Bico Suavé in vibranium with an inverted domed dilithium crystal and a Ja'loja yellow dial.
Oh FFS Jody.. .persuading me to part with more of my hard earned cash.... Again!
I've made a deal with myself. I'm trying to get a new job. When I succeed I am going to score an Oris 65 Deauville dial and wear it to the office.
Thanks again Jody for a great video and commiserations to my credit card :)
why is it that my wife can spend $400 on a purse, but i can't spend that much on a watch! lol .... nice review Jody, thank you.... but out of my set price range of no more than $100.... i'm trying to make videos of only that... on ly one so far, so we will see! thanks for the inspiration! (and if you have any advice for me, please let me know... i'm all ears!)
LOL.If my wife spent £400 on a purse she would soon be having to look out for a new husband methinks?? Cheers,Len.
I feel your pain.
You have to create your secret identity of "Mr X" like Jody did.
@@adaptivekalman ... good idea! now just to figure out how to get the money he has! lol
I like the blue black dail one the best. But I am cuckoo for Blue dial watches
I love Oris, and Jody, you always find the good uns. I have just taken delivery of the item that my wife will never understand. I have an International Watch Company (IWC) Portofino with Anthracite (coal coloured dial) Yup I dropped $12K USD. She is going to kill me :)
I like the one you currently own. The new one looks wishy washy.
When are you going to review an Aquis ?
Soon! I handed this one back today and asked about my next loaner.
Damn that stainless steel center link on the case just bothers me.
Great watch by an independent company.
I like!
Man, I love those Divers 65's. I am torn as well between the bronze bezel and the bico. I love the blue dial of the bico, but I'm not sure how much I love the two tone bracelet. I am afraid 10 years from now both bronze and two tone watches might be out of style. I also think there is a whole lot of competition around the $1500-$2000 usd mark. For that much, I feel like I would want something more than an SW-200 3 hander. I would think that kind of money might get you a chronograph or some other complication, or at least an in house movement with a really nice power reserve.
10 years from now they may be out of style, but by 20, they'll be back in again!
Why flip Jody - get them all...😂😇
Ok Britney. It's not aging well is it? And I am not talking about Ms Spears either.
I intended to buy this and when I went to try it on at Blue Water I really didn't like it, the bracelet felt flimsy. It also felt as if they had taken the clasp off a woman's watch. Literally felt like I could have snapped it. Managed to find myself a Tudor Glamour I couldn't resist at a great price
Wha! There's a chronograph but still no 'time only' or no-date. I really want a black face bronze bezel no-date... and since discovering the watches my eyesight has gotten so bad I couldn't read the date without spectacles anyway!
Prefer the Christopher Ward Trident C65 vintage diver myself, & it's cheaper too! Sweet watch tho. Cheers 👍👍
