Oris’s popular Divers Sixty-Five returns this year with a new 40mm case size.

The watch, which was previously available with a 42mm or 36mm case, is based on the design of an historic diver’s model dating back to 1965 original.



Its retro looks include: a domed crystal, low-profile unidirectional rotating bezel and shield-shaped hour marker at 12 o’clock.



This new model has a blue domed dial with vintage Light Old Radium Super-LumiNova detailing, and is available on either a brown leather strap or a Stainless steel metal bracelet.



The Oris Divers Sixty-Five Ref. 0173377074055 has a Swiss retail price of 1850CHF and is available from May 2019.



Thoughts? Personally 40mm is too small for me but this a good move by Oris, as there is a trend for smaller wristwatches especially in the vintage diver segment.
