    Whilst the new Calibre 400 is undoubtedly a massive leap forward to Oris as a brand, and in terms of the tech specs of the movement. However, it is also a massive leap forward in terms of price. The Calibre 400 spec'ed Aquis costs 50% more than the Sellita powered version. Can it justify that difference? I guess it depends on how much money you have! Cheers, Jody

Straps, like watches, sometimes also have some wiggle room in the price. Although it might not be as much, still worth trying though.

    Great review, Jody! I appreciate the new movement, but I guess I was hoping for a new Aquis case and dial design to really set the watch apart along with the calibre 4000. A thinner case would be a good start. Still a great looking piece, but I agree with some of the other comments: the price is getting very close to something like a Black Bay or Pelagos.

  • @TheStuartYork
    @TheStuartYork Před 3 lety +12

    Thank you, another thought provoking video.
    I love my 10yrs old Oris, Williams F1 watch, I've had it 10yrs. and it still looks great, not serviced but still accurate to +6secs per day.
    The new in house movement is the way forward, however, in my view it's a big negative to have it built by a third party, (any idea where it's built?) and still charge an Uber premium on the "In house movement"!
    I always struggle with watch manufacturers who like to boast as being a high quality watch makers when they don't produce their own movements, (that makes them, to me, quality assemblers, rather than watch makers).
    Re: the new calibre 400, is not the prettiest movement on earth, the Sellita 200 it replaces, to me is way nicer to look at.
    In the U.K., the Sellita 200 retails at £150, fo the standard movement, and £250:00 for the beautiful skeletonised version, the The extra £850:00, the Oris designed movement costs, is asking too much of the purchaser to bear.
    The hype around power reserve, to me is fairly pointless in an automatic movement, yes, in a manually hand wound watch, winding the watch say once every 5 days rather than daily, perhaps a selling point. ( that said, If I was fortunate enough to own an A. Lange & Sohn'e, or Breguet, I'd be thrilled to wind it daily!)
    With regard to claims around magnetic protection, I'm in my mid 60's, I've been a committed watch nut for most of that time, in all that time, I've never had an issue with magnetic forces messing with my watch, this is current fashion, it's a talking point, nothing else.
    Sorry, this has turned into a bit of a diatribe, it wasn't meat to be.
    Best.

    3 Points
    1: The movement looks incredible.
    2: It's made the original Aquis a second choice watch. If I had recently bought an Aquis, with the off the shelf movement , I think I might be annoyed.
    3: Why bring out a watch costing £2700 that is, to all intents and purposes, identical to a watch costing £1600 ? A "luxury" watch isn't solely defined by its mechanism. Finish, strap, clasp, polish, aesthetic all come into it. In all these respects, this is still a £1600 Aquis.
    Status can be a factor in watch purchases, so it might have made more sense to bring out a new model as they're now in Tudor territory.
    Great review by the way...

      They had to jack up the price to pay for the R&D of the 400 and used an existing model to save money. I have no problem with them doing this. The 10 year warranty and service interval knocks some of that original cost down. I also believe that ORIS’ fit and finish is easily as good if not better than the Tudor and their bracelets are sold and very comfortable.

      @@DWilliam1 If you're right on that, Tudor has pulled off an incredible piece of marketing that has conned almost every U tube watch reviewer and millions of customers.
      Until recently , Tudor fitted modified ETA movements into most of their models...as do Oris (ETA clones)...and yet Tudor has routinely charged a £/$/€ 1000 premium for equivalent watches that have equivalent movements.

    They might have missed a product design and marketing trick here: release a “planet ocean” style variation “Aquis Hydroscape” etc, etc, on the base Aquis (or extend the professional line) and justify the price disparity over the SW200 model with a differentiated case and 600m etc? This would also justify it bumping price wise into tool watches with IHMs like the Pelagos. Great to see the breakthrough work the engineers have done here in terms of innovation...

If and when Oris comes out with different styles and colors, I probably will get one. Right now, doubtful you would get any discount. That and it being a new movement, would like to wait and see if there are issues, heck Patek Rolex, Tudor, Panari and others have had problems with new movements. Wait a year, then I will look.

      @mercuriall2810 Před 10 měsíci

      ⁠@@Jaypilot100You can’t overwind this watch. If you wind it manually you will reach a point where winding further is not adding more run time to the movement, but continuing to wind beyond this point will not damage or overwind the watch.
      The idea of an overwound watch is a myth. A manual wind only watch will not let you wind it beyond a certain point, the crown will simply stop turning. Once fully wound, the bridle of the mainspring of an automatic watch will start slipping in the barrel in response to further winding.
      If you give your Oris a good winding after you take it off, it should be running when you go to put it back on 3 days later.

It looks better than the seamaster, submariner and the Tudor. Gives the Breitling heritage a run as well. The movement is personal. If you don't mind throwing extra money away for bragging right, then go for it. Otherwise the original will certainly do the job just well for many years. There's no right or wrong. Whatever floats your boat. All the aquis watches are gorgeous. Always have been and wont make a lot difference. I love this new colour however but might wait a couple of years for a good second hand example. It's stunning.

    I think that between this and the ProPilot X, Oris is really trying to flex their horological muscles and prove that they are just as good as the other entry-level luxury brands, specially Tudor. I think the pricing is going to prove to be whatever makes or breaks them in that aspect. Most companies really do go through a hard transition in perception once they go in-house.

    Having genuine eta movement which costs more than the price of the watch itself is insane in my opinion. I strongly suggest you to find more about this watch!

    This makes me wonder: would it be possible for Oris to put this caliber into a Big Crown Pointer Date at some point? Swapping the torque from a date wheel to a date hand shouldn't be too hard, I reckon? That would be fantastic!

  • @chrispeek380
    @chrispeek380 Před 3 lety +1

    I have several Aquis models and the issue here for me really is the price point. I bought them all NIB via reputable US gray market sellers for $1000-$1500. If the price is going to float into the $3000 +/- range that's going to be a make or break issue. I like my Aquis watches, but Oris is not a brand I'm ready to drop $3000+ on. The movement is an impressive flex but in my experience they need to bring up their Aquis bracelet engineering/manufacturing game (screws backing out and detaching Aquis bracelets is a common occurrence, and two of mine had this issue) and service game if they are going to be at near Omega pricing levels.

  • @leecoll78
    @leecoll78 Před 3 lety +1

    I own an Aquis 39.5 with the tungsten bezel, it looks beautiful but the timing could be more accurate. Would i pay twice the price for an in house movement to solve that... no, i'd be eying up a black bay instead around that sort of money.

  • @VersedNJ
    @VersedNJ Před 3 lety +1

    Love the watch, movement seems an improvement, but costs US1,000 more than my Oris Lake Baikal which looks similar and like the dail better. If I didn't have it, maybe. Still Kudo's to Oris. Maybe next year if they have more models with the new version. If and when they toss this new movement into the Divers 65 in bronze and not in bronze, I'd be interested.

  • @darrenmay3578
    @darrenmay3578 Před 3 lety

    5 day power is impressive and a selling point when comparing to other watches, but not for 50% higher price! Sounds like pricing to quickly recover R&D spend, but it puts the 400 up against a wider range of competition.

      @DiscoFalcon all of us have different taste and expectations from watches: I am not impressed by Tudor Bb, my preferred one is the Pelagos that is more in line with the story of Tudor. In my humble opinion, the Bb family is a marketing proposal for Rolex Sub eagers: looking at my wrist, the Bb just remind me his famous cousin... nothing else. While Pelagos has his own presence and communicate a clear attitude. Enjoy your Bb!

    Was thinking more about COSC certification... how much should it be valued when you can get a COSC certified watch for under $1000 US? Tissot sells their Powermatic with COSC certification for just under a grand. Formex is selling COSC for just over a grand. Is COSC certification value worth more than brand value? I suppose it depends on the buyer...

    A bit "top trumps", having the in house movement, tick. Having a watch that isn't quartz that you are not using running in the drawer, tick. Practically, the Selitta version is a good solid movement, parts easily available and cheap. It's so simple if you wanted to you can service/fix it yourself. I have a couple of Selittas and would be happy to stick with that option and the difference is enough you get a Delma Oceanmaster Tide a properly useful nautical watch.

  • @zoomvidsjc1
    @zoomvidsjc1 Před 3 lety

    You know, I'm ok with the price as long as they hopefully upped the quality of the bracelet finishing. I had one a while ago and the case was great but you can see even in your video the polishing on the bracelet is distorted. You can see light not reflected in straight lines. Also the brushed center links, the lines and edges aren't crisp like you find in some other watches above maybe 700.00 (look how crisp the phoibos voyager's bracelet finishing is!!!). Overall I think the price is a little high. This is their volume loss leader. Maybe adding silicon something or other and upping the finishing could help acceptance of the higher price if they stuff it into other models going forward.

    I'm intrigued by this movement, but that is a big premium. I wonder if it would have been easier to swallow if it were introduced with an entirely new design, rather than looking exactly the same as the much more affordable one. For comparison, I have a Ball Roadmaster Icebreaker with their in-house movement. There is also one with a standard (modified ETA) movement, and the price difference is only a few hundred dollars. I admit it is not as fancy as the Oris 400, but it has an 80 hour power reserve, 28,800 bph retained, and is COSC certified.

    If they made the caliber 400 (provided it can fit) into the 39.5mm than I would be interested, 43.5mm is huge!
