The Bronze Age: Oris Releases Multiple Vintage-Influenced Models
Hot on the heels of the fan-favorite Carl Brashear Chronograph, Oris has released three previously unseen models at Baselworld 2018. We have new updates to the Divers Sixty-Five, the ProPilot collection, and two updates to the Big Crown.
Oris has gone all in on the bronze trend, with two new Sixty-Five models, one in 40 mm and one in 36 mm, that feature a bronze ring around the bezel. It’s slightly smaller than previous Sixty-Five models at 40 mm, but is overall similar to previous editions of the Sixty-Five. It shows that Oris is listening to consumer feedback and presenting a product that enthusiasts both appreciate and is able to stand on its own in a sea of vintage-inspired divers that have proliferated through the market over the past three to four years. Both new models use a modified Sellita SW 200-1 movement ? dubbed the Oris Caliber 733 ? with a date at 6 o?clock. This new Sixty-Five should help quench the thirst for the extremely popular and limited Carl Brashear line. It?s a move that makes a lot of sense, both for the brand and the consumer.
What?s really interesting here is the new 36 mm diver. Last year during Baselworld, we saw Rado make waves with the 37.5 mm Captain Cook. This year, Oris has followed suit with a smaller model that is more authentic to the vintage aesthetic. This is a model that can easily switch between genders and is definitely appealing to someone who appreciates the trend of embracing smaller men?s sizes.
Both models are priced ...
