The Big One: Oris Aquis Pro 4000m

A look at the new king Aquis, the Pro 4000m dive watch from Swiss watchmaker Oris

I saw Yankees manager Aaron Boone wearing a OAP4000 today while they were playing the Mets on tv. It was absolutely beautiful and eye catching. I plan on buying one by the end of this year for sure.

[@jayeyesacks1604]

There's a fine line between tool watch and fool's watch, but it's reassuring that finally a watch exists that's safe to wear in the shower.

[@anonymoushuman8962]

Hey dude. I just got one. I am typically a Rolex, AP and Cartier collector but then I saw this on a review on KZbin. I didn’t even know the brand that was an afterthought. I knew I wanted it. Mostly for me I love dive watches and I love blue dials. I was also attached to the amount of top spec technology that’s been poured into thus thing. It’s absolute solid and is backed up with a 10 year warranty. All for £5k! It’s absolutely amazing. I would have paid double for it! To top it off it fits tightly and snug on my wrist. It’s extremely comfortable to wear and given it’s made with titanium it doesn’t feel heavy. The only question mark I have is the clasp bas I’m used to Rolex and APs clasps which are superb. My other dive watches are the the Rolex James Cameron deep sea (which feels heavier than thus Oris) and a AP blue dial with a yellow strap which I replaced the blue strap. Overall I love this piece. It’s nowhere as heavy as it looks and it’s so comfortable too. Very refreshing for me personally, as I have really focused in on Rolex, AP and Cartier somewhat as my collection probably demonstrates! Well done Oris!

[@imperialwatchco.1353]

Such a cool watch and video Evan! Really looked great on your wrist despite its size! Hope you are doing great and thanks again for the video! Cheers, Ben

[@sneakyscorpia]

It can double up as a shield if someone tries to attack you😉. Great video!

[@justthepip]

When the more wearable/conservatively sized and deeper-diving Seamaster Ultra Deep exists, this watch is a tough sell, but to the points you made, a delight to behold and real fun on the wrist.

[@YoureTerrific]

But for half the price of the Omega?

[@Hoodedvids]

Killer review, I think you really nailed why this exists and that’s it’s ok to want it. My average wrists do not want to be subjected to this thing, but dang is it cool.

[@Leo-yi8bb]

Witty and insightful as always! Really fun to watch!

[@donwarner6925]

I would like one. Thanks for perpetuating the dangerous thoughts.

[@Griffin1994]

They looked at the MM300 thickness and said “hold my beer” 😂 love love love it

[@Sirkelsag666]

MM300 is only 15.4 though. Average chronograph height or something.

[@j8sdx]

Would love one of these, would got well together with my Omega Ultradeep, Citizen Bn7020 and Emperor Tuna

[@oliverpichleritsch-fitfors7656]

Thanks for the video. Well done. I have already ordered this watch. and yes... no one needs this watch; but you definitely want to have them. 😉

[@richardbrown8099]

Tried it on yesterday, it was fantastic.

[@_FOTI]

Completely agree, that's the same reason I want the Citizen BN7020-09E, I like the design and tech. I like that strap colour.

[@DC-uf6ve]

It's good looking and it's a pat down proof weapon. I like it.

[@SinnerAndSaint]

Awesome looking Aquis! You're absolutely on point imho. It's such a dumb yet beautiful watch. Really dig the overall style of it! As always very entertaining commentary - keep it up 7-inch-guy!

[@underachievingwatchcollect1878]

Thanks for feeding the addiction 😎!!

[@WatchMeBURNFuel]

Love it! I absolutely don't need it but I most definitely want it! The glass and the power reserve/in house movement is what has me sold. Depth ratings are basically comparing who has the biggest, or smallest, p****. It's why I own an Omega Ultra Deep. Small.....here...but I compensate for it with my depth rating that I will never use lol...anyways, I don't really care for the fact that you can't swap out the strap with common straps, or the overall design in general...even though it does give me Omega vibes with the wave dial.

[@GregJ1]

You hate it, until you see Arnold wearing it and then you have to have it. Love the review- "it's for no one" 🙂

I watched this video several times. And I think I really want to own one now. So thanks, I guess. 🙈

[@ratsausage]

Very nice and I am drawn to it. But the rubber bit concerns me, how is it attached? Will it fall off or harden over time? Will a new one be available and how much, how hard to replace?

[@carloh2503]

a good cuff stopper in every case 😂

[@davidrosenblum2178]

I’ve always had a yearning for one of these chonky bois. I’ve looked at both Omegas and Rolexes. This is the one I’d buy. It’s absolutely unnecessary and I absolutely love it.

[@Nefville]

If I understand this correctly, the only application for this watch is after a certan-death implosion in a deep submersible - but only down to 4000m. So the abyssal plain is out then?

[@user-og2ro4ux3n]

The more playful of the deep sea clocks. Although I usually prefer boring and serious watches, I dig this approach because Oris managed to make It colourful, yet still technical.

[@moneymikz]

Can I get it in like a 42 mil with 300 m rating because I do love the design

[@ajcallaway123]

So you're saying I don't need my 500m dive watch? 🤔 Well I never. Like the look of that clasp!

[@YoureTerrific]

No, no, I’m sure *you* need it.

[@ajcallaway123]

@@YoureTerrific *you're* terrific 👍

[@remus2001]

The inside of submersibles are at 1 atmosphere, with regular gas composition. Helium escape valves (and those absurd depth ratings) are useless in submersible dives, assuming the watch is inside the submersible. In fact, James Cameron could have work a vintage wristwatch with no water resistance when we travelled to the bottom of the Mariana Trench inside a submersible.

Oris is one of the few luxury watch brands that still dare to take risks and make unique, high performing watches that you thought you'd never need. That is, until you watched a great review like this one, and realized you did need them. Desperately.

[@misterzero8667]

They are not a luxury brand made in china £2000 stuff

[@Lucalaurin]

​@@misterzero8667 If you think a watch that costs over 1k is not a luxury watch I'm afraid you're beyond help already.

[@WatchGeek]

It really is so ridiculous and funny its actually cool, but something I could only wear around my ankle

[@franciskwhite]

Does the Oris 400 movement still have the issue where the second hand skips when you unhack it? If so, they should have stuck with Sellita.

[@gmichaelhall]

This issue was resolved awhile back ✌️

[@wristopia4101]

Not a looker and it would need a big big discount for me, but if that happened 😈 Spending double on an Ultra Deep makes far more sense IMO.

[@bobotmeister]

Got rhe 1000m dlc'd little brother a year ago... But I want this one too😅

[@salty5402]

Just because you can build, should you? Would this be like a display piece? Does Oris expect to sell any units - or is it just a PR "see what we can do"?

[@YoureTerrific]

I think it’s mostly a halo piece.

[@rubensanmaurodelbosqur1950]

How does the size compare to the Iwc Aquatimer 2000?

I wish I knew. Less expensive, I’d guess.

[@SteveFWatches]

Would have bought an aquis before if it wasn’t for those lugs and limiting strap combos

[@YoureTerrific]

I have that issue too. And the polish on the lugs and bracelet.

[@makuIa]

oris are really trying to push this watch onto the watch community far more than the diving community. they have been gifting these watchers to a lot of watch channels it’s clear what target audience they’re aiming their sales at

[@JazzApe]

If by "gifting" you mean loaned out to content creators for review and then returned. Yes, Oris is doing what a lot of other watch brands do for new releases. Which I'm totally OK with. If I need a long-term owner's review, I'll turn to the watch forums.

[@reemaszero]

True but these are biased reviews. I understand it’s a business but filter accordingly! Love the channel though, just be prudent.

This watch is clearly engineered for the second after the old lady rose dropped it in the water at the end.

Love Oris but not this not right now, we just left the huge watch trend about a decade ago and recently into the sub 40mm trend is really nice. I have a 7" worst and 37-39mm is extremely in fir me, if Tony looks kool wearing a 37mm Rollie we can to.

[@kostar500]

Hats off to Oris for making this watch…

[@tubetop123]

How thick is your wrist again??

[@WatcheswithDennis]

I suspect this is not a serious watch by Oris. By that I mean given when it released I thought they were poking fun at Omega and Rolex with their equally unwearable monstrosities but Oris does it at a far more approachable price point for a gimmicky toy. I think if H. Moser had made the watch everyone would have felt it was a joke but Oris doing it makes people treat it as serious. But I think Oris may be trolling a bit and showing their playful side.

[@vincentschneuwly9783]

Actually I wouldn't be surprised if you were right 😊😊😊

[@MrGeirSteinar]

That’s a toy I’d really love to play with 👍

[@achuck4321]

It’s not the titanium that is making it heavy, it’s the thick sapphire crystal. Explains why it’s so top heavy.

[@runninondeaftime]

Nice Ecozilla homage!

[@j.j.h.atemycereal]

Here's what I don't understand... if you're in a submersible and breathing Heliox, and some of those pesky Helium atoms get into your watch, and then you go through decompression, why do you need the HEV? Why don't those Helium atoms get out the same way they got in? Love the watch though. It's thicker than most lug widths. Think about THAT. Cool video, thanks.

[@YoureTerrific]

No, I believe they have a more difficult time getting out than in.

[@thedaveaftertomorrow]

[@liangweihao7932]

That thickness is really stupid, but not in the fun way you described. Makes the Rolex Deepsea look anorexic. And highlights just how stark the difference in the engineering prowess is between the 2 companies. And going through the effort of trying to make it appear function-focused with that bezel locking system, but having such an obscenely protruding crystal that is asking to be smashed to smithereens against some rock outcropping (and there goes all your water resistance to speak off), is just confusing. Is the watch trying to take itself seriously, or is it not?
