Recently I’ve been quite obsessed with Oris Watches. Particularly, the Oris Divers Sixty-Five. In my opinion, it stands out from the crowd without looking overly ostentatious. It’s a perfect balance of function, luxury and style.

Orisis a Swiss watch company founded by Paul Cattin and Georges Christian at Hölstein in 1904. As of 2012, they did about $54 million in revenue. In contrast, Rolex did $4.7 billion this year. So Oris is quite small and independent.

So I finally decided to purchase the watch, and then disappointingly returned it immediately. It just didn’t fit my wrist properly.​ ​
The NATO style strap is extremely thick and strong—which from a durability standpoint is great, but from a comfort standpoint, not great. It sort of has the holes in the wrong place also—at least for me. In addition, there is an interior label they sewed onto the strap that itched my wrist considerably. (SO ANNOYING). But I love everything else about the timepiece.

FYI: I bought it from​ ​Jomashop​ ​for a great deal (about 25% below MRSP) and they were great about accepting the refund as well. If you have a better shaped wrist than me, maybe you can enjoy this watch and I can live vicariously through you.
