Rob, you are so right. This Oris diver looks so cool I could almost wear it with a tuxedo and not feel overdressed f o r the watch. It is on my radar for sure.
2+ years. My every day watch. I love it. Mine is reliable and cozy. +6 a day. Self-winding works well. Curved dial and domed crystal is psychedelic. Mine is inky black but with the bronze bezel w/ aluminum insert and rose gold PVD, which gives it a great warm glow. Strap it on every morning and it makes me smile.
@@autry33 look at authorised dealers locally they sometimes have discounts. Not directly from oris but local jewellery stores that are authorised by oris often will sell at a cheaper price. Note: however you don't get to choose color of dial etc.
So, that watch runs around -6 to -10 (slow) per 24 hours. If that's my watch, it will not be worn. I like my watch to run 0 to 5 sec fast on the wrist. I set my watches on the plus side, 5 to 10 sec. fast with the dial on the up position on the timegrapher.
I really like the specs of this watch. I don't like big and chunky watches. This one is appealing. It is out of my price range at this point but really like it.
Grabbed the first 65 I saw for under $1k and real glad I did. It is a unique, handsome 40mm retro highbeat and can be found almost affordable for patient surfers.
Even though 100m of Water resistance is more then enough for most everybody it’s just weird to me for an actual “dive” watch with a timing bezel to not be at least 200m My most basic watches some very dressy have 100m
I picked up a bronze bezel with gilt hands and markers instead of the printed dial shown here model for $1200 from Jomashop. It's beautiful! Usually they are around $1400 to $1500 more from there, but if you keep looking every so often they take an extra couple hundred off one model or another
I have the Oris Divers 65 bico with the bronze bezel insert and bronze/steel bracelet and I love it to this date. The inky blue dial is just stunning to stare at
This watch is MUCH better on a strap than on the bracelet. Wish Oris had not tapered the bacelet so much. The lume is very good too. Unique dial, a keeper for sure!
Gotta say when I'm looking at Seikos that cost $1000+, I start thinking about these more and more seriously as my "nice watch", and then just get a Turtle later on.
Hey Rob, I’m seeing this video again now and I spoke directly with Oris’ customer service and three confirmed that they have stoped the production on this watch and only have residual stock which they are selling off.
I own one and I would say it’s hard to justify spending more than $1k for one. Plenty of other divers offer more for your money. The main selling point for this watch is that it’s different
Always felt like mine had a Clunky cheap feel to rotating the bezel but after that fact absolutely loved mine. Amazing case, awesome call to give up 100 feet of water resistance to keep it slim, rubber strap was indistinguishable from the tropic brand. If you’re thinking about getting one stop wasting your time, it’s obvious you need it!
At MSRP this is definitely overpriced. At around $1,000 or, say, slightly above Christopher Ward Trident money, this is pretty tempting. Although, come to think of it ... the Oris has the same movement, way less WR and a less interesting case-profile (IMO) than the CW... :D But anyway: I still love the overall look of this version of the 65... this is retro done right. If it were my money, I'd go for the black and blue colourway of this dial-design.
I nearly picked one of these up 3 years ago, from an AD, for $1200. They just released a new, no date version without the faux patina lume. But I think its $2200.
Rob I totally agree with you- had this watch on bracelet in 2017 and while I liked it, I didn’t love it. I’ve since traded for it again, and I’ve grown to absolutely love it!
I agree with you. Nice watch. The key is to buy it used and for the right price. The scratches on it don't really take away from the watch. Its a tool watch so its fine.
This is such a great looking watch! Definitely on my radar. Great video Rob

Maybe my favorite watch in my collection. It is not going anywhere.
Love this watch , much prefer this dial over just the indices dial
i really like the spongebob numerals!!!
Interesting and accurate description
I have a friend John Trabbic Jr. Who does the story board for SpongeBob ! He's a great artist .
@@juniorjohnson5961 So THAT'S who designed this watch!

100m diver is more of a snorkeler but it's a neat looking watch.
Reminds me of a vulcain’s diver😂❤.
Very nice watch, the only thing keeping me from getting one are the case sides that find too slim.
I could never wear a watch with thin sides like that. Too retro.
Diver 65 is the only Oris I find interesting. Just don't buy it at retail.
just wait for the discount.
@@montryeolout Do the discounts usually appear on their web sites often?

Nice
I can't get past the font.
Brand new this is more expensive than either a sinn 556 or 104. It's a cool looking watch, but way overpriced imo.
I paid slightly under $1000 for mine on a steel bracelet.
@@varanid9 at that price, an excellent value. It's a good looking diver.

Mine runs +8 a second which id say is pretty good for it's price!
It is 100 meter water resistant. My bad. Sorry. Wrong watch.
doesn't look nice to me
I really like the specs of this watch. I don't like big and chunky watches. This one is appealing. It is out of my price range at this point but really like it.
My problem is that I have never sold a watch that I have purchased. You do? Oh the inhumanity!!
My oldest (16) has mine. Gave it to him last Christmas. Find myself wanting one again and will sell my BB58.

I’ve always loved this original diver’s 65... just the perfect size and that skin diver look is awesome
While this watch is a little out of my price range I really dig the retro dial/numerals. I prefer the blue/gray dial but both look really cool.
I got more compliment on this than submariner
OD65 is perfect for me ! I have one and it´s one of my fav pieces.
I own one and I would say it’s hard to justify spending more than $1k for one. Plenty of other divers offer more for your money. The main selling point for this watch is that it’s different
ive never seen this used under 1k
Хорошие часы жаль что не могу себе позволить!
I loooove the look, BUT .. weak lume, 10 bar, generic mouvement ..for 2.5k $CAN, this is no bueno ;/
Many thanks for a heartfelt re-review. Take care and stay safe.
Just picked this up on the steel strap for £1200 new from AD. I believe this model has now been completely discontinued

I agree, it's hard to justify the Oris 65 vs the CW 65 imo. Especially at retail.
Idk, that’s all taste, I think CW watches are Gauche, I’d rather pay full retail for this than wear any CW watches.
I 2nd. At $900-1000 new; easy buy (w a different strap - RR is blind - old brown strap w a black dial - terrible).
@@WestCoastAce27 haha agree to disagree there, I like that look just fine
I’ve bought what I think is the last brand new retail one in the uk - arriving next week can’t wait

Model Number ? I cannot find this model on Oris website.
I have the blue and black on the rubber strap. Although I don't wear it often, I do like it. It has a unique look in a world of copycats!
If I could find one of these in mint condition I'd be very happy to drop a grand on it. I'll have to look for them.
I really like this watch I believe it comes in a no date that's the one I would buy !
If you had the choice between this and a Sinn 104, what would be your choice? I'm stuck and can't afford both.
Normally I would say Sinn. But now I am not sure, a used good deal Oris is a much better value.
Without the big crown it looks more like a Swatch to me 😊
Also love the font!
I have always thought these watches were just meh. After seeing that lume, I am a fan!
Had mine almost 5 years and counting. A unique re-edition.
What size wrist for this watch?
Will this fit a 6.7” wrist?
This with the blue dial is actually my grail watch
This would be a keeper for me.
Awesome👏🏻😎!!!!!!
R.O.B. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤘😎
same price, would you buy black or blue?
Blue
Why does Oris do diver watches with just 10atm water resistance?! That’s a bit disappointing.
Hai bro better oris diver 65 or mido tribute?
Christopher Ward Dartmouth
Correction 150 meters water resistance.
Can't decide between this watch or the longines spirit.
Any advice??
Longines spirit is in a different league, oris doesn't come close.
