Oris New York Harbor Limited Edition IIvsAigi Watches Northern Lights Automatic

The Oris New York Harbor Limited Edition II is praised for its vibrant teal mother-of-pearl dial and refined case finishing, with reviewers noting it wears smaller than its 43.5mm size suggests. One reviewer highlights the charming, colorful dial and stainless steel bezel adding character to the Aquis line. However, the Sellita-based Oris Caliber 733 movement shows its age with a modest 41-hour power reserve. Some find the barrel-like case shape and 13.1mm thickness make it feel chunky on the wrist. On balance, reviewers appreciate the Oris New York Harbor Limited Edition II for its eye-catching dial and refined finishing, despite the movement's dated power reserve.

Owners praise the Northern Lights dial for its character in sunlight, comparing it favorably to Grand Seiko's dials. Some owners question the brand's longevity and suggest more reputable alternatives for a safer purchase. Concerns are raised about the watch's chunkiness, with a 43mm diameter and 49mm lug-to-lug. One owner noted the watch arrived with a Miyota 9015 movement, not the expected Seiko NH35. Overall, owners find the Aigi Watches NORTHERN LIGHTS AUTOMATIC to be a decent value at $199, with the dial being a standout feature.
