...for you brawny, heroic, men. There comes a point, and at 51mm I think we are pretty much there, where the watch just becomes TOO manly for a woman IMO. Now, if we were talking about a 47mm Panerai Radiomir, I might just be persuaded, because the cushion-shaped case is so delightful.

Oris, Omega & Rolex

They exist for about the same time but with different fame in this particular order: Rolex, Omega then Oris. However, to me, Oris has its own charm and it is my first mechanical watch during school day. Today, I can see some seriousness in Oris watches an...

the ProDiver. I think it is pretty good tool watch. Somehow, not so sure about the models from the Culture group. Kong
Thanks, Kong!

This was a very enlightening post for me, as I knew nothing about Oris previously. Their new diver looks nice, but at 51mm it's a beast! Thanks for the great photos also! Cheers, Daos

The Oris Pro Diver is an attractive new model, and you know that I have a soft-spot for divers, but I feel that a girl has to draw the line somewhere and 51mm is a sandbox that only boys should play in. Hope all is well! Cheers, Daos
A pretty interesting report! Thanks!

The divers watch does look surprisingly appealing, though its size is huge! Perhaps that is what adds to its appeal... Maybe. But the design and style is attractive.
Yes, it is well-made!

And even seat nicely on my small wrist. A very good challenger under Diver watches. Kong
I'm glad

I've always been fond of the sporty designs that Oris puts out. Not sure about the Bob Dylan model though. Cheers, Anthony
Thanks for the report! The Oris pro Diver is pretty nice

The tie-in with the car? Car looks okay, but under my radar. Derigeur, I suppose, if you own one of these cars. The Bob Dylan watch? He'd never wear one. He did enjoy the royalty payment, I can assure you.
That diver...

Is hilarious! A 51 mm case containing what is most likely a 2894-2 movement with a diameter of 28mm... I would love to see photo with the case-back open...all that unused space! The conversion table on the back. yep, That's what I'll use to plan my next d...
