What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Oris Aquis Date Upcycle

Owners widely appreciate the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle's unique, colorful dials made from recycled PET plastic, noting the strong conservation message and artistic look. Reviewers consistently highlight the robust Aquis build, 300m water resistance, and reliable Sellita SW 200-1 movement. Some owners find the dial's appearance inconsistent, and one reviewer notes its complexity can impact legibility for a dive watch. The 41.5mm version offers a more muted palette, and the movement provides a 38-hour power reserve. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle highly for its distinctive, eco-conscious dial and solid dive watch construction at the price.

From video reviewers

High-quality build is a notable feature of the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle. A potential drawback is that the multicolored recycled plastic dial may not appeal to everyone. Reviewers disagree on the importance of size, with one reviewer praising the watch's smaller size and another preferring a larger watch.

Oris Star Edition

The Oris Star Edition is a faithful 35mm reissue of a 1966 model, featuring a vintage dial, sunburst finish, and acrylic crystal. Reviewers note the 35mm case size may be too small for some collectors. The watch is powered by the automatic Oris Calibre 733 movement with a 41-hour power reserve and offers 50m water resistance. One reviewer pointed out that the date digits are not sized like the original and the included strap appears cheap. Overall, reviewers appreciate the Oris Star Edition's faithful revival of a historically significant model, with the vintage aesthetic being a primary draw.
