This new edition is spiced up with a novel combination of materials and finishes. Most striking is the sunray cherry red dial, which gives Aquis a style punch, while also delivering fantastic legibility, an essential quality in a diver’s watch. Looked at more closely, its stainless steel bezel insert with a diving scale in relief (a finish first seen on the Aquis Date Relief) becomes clear, too. This gives the watch its subtle, below-the-radar quality. Beyond these details, it’s an out-and-out diver’s watch, with 30 bar (300 metres) water resistance, a uni-directional rotating bezel for safely timing dives, a screw-down crown with protection, and a tapered three-link metal bracelet equipped with Oris’s inventive clasp extension system.
