Unlike numerous Swiss watch manufacturers, Oris don't make watches with quartz movements. Its watches are strictly self-winding or automatic - the red coloring of the rotor in its automatic watches is really a trademark of the business. What follows is a brief review of the present models on offers you from Oris within the Williams F1 Team collection.

Oris watches are fine timepieces but had been seen by a lot of as becoming rather conventional. Lately it has freed itself of this image using the introduction of new and trendy lines; particularly in the sports and divers watches. Reality: the enterprise only began making sports watches only as lately as the nineteen seventies.

The following reviews are brief but, hopefully, will give you some thought as to what you get if you obtain an Oris Williams F1 Team watch.

The corporation, like numerous good quality watch manufacturers, come across a 'partner' that's well known in some sporting arena. The concept, I guess, is to give sporting credence to their watch. The corporation has gone into partnership with the Williams Formula 1 racing team as well as the result is its collection of Williams F1 Team watches.

You will discover 4 basic models; the Day Date; the Skeleton Engine; the Pointer Date as well as the Chronograph.

The simplest in design may be the Day Date. The dial is black carbon fiber with Arabic numerals with the day and date function becoming displayed at the 6 o'clock position. The casing is titanium and is complemented with either titanium or rubber strap. My personal favorite will be the model number: 01 635 7588 7064-07 four 28. This Oris watch features a 41 mm titanium casing, carbon fiber black dial with painted hexagonal squares, rubber strap and also a red second hand.

The internal workings of Oris watches may be observed by means of a glass window on the back case. With all the Skeleton Engine within the Williams F1 Team collection there does no will need, as you'll be able to see the internal movement when you appear at the dial. Some might like this function, nonetheless, I don't. This really is a shame because this watch does have one function I really like; there is an inner dial that display numerals 1 to 31, which turns so that the date is displayed by mean of a red triangle in the 6 o'clock position. Why didn't the company make this watch with no a window displaying the movement? It would have looked a whole lot classier if they had. Anyhow, the casing of the watch is in stainless steel with either stainless steel or black rubber strap.

I confess that my favorite watch in this collection will be the Pointer Date version. Oris watches are well-known for displaying the date using an arm that sweeps around the dial - the numerals 1 to 31 normally getting displayed as an outer dial from the time indices. Commonly, the finish of the date pointer arm can be a horseshoe shape, to ensure that the number is contained, but with this watch the date arm has a triangle in the finish that's painted red. The dial has a printed black fiber structure with Arabic numerals in the 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock position. The case is in stainless steel with stainless steel or rubber strap - the stainless steel strap looks superior. The hands and indices are Superluminova C3. The watch is water resistant to25 meters. The Oris Williams F1 Team Pointer Date is really a stunning watch in my opinion.

The Chronograph comes a very close second to the Pointer Date version as being my preferred. The Chronograph comes with tachometer bezel, two-piece dial with fine minute track and decimal division. The watch I would purchase would be the 01 673 7563 4654-07 4 27 01B model. It's really striking with black PVP plated stainless steel casing, black dial printed carbon fiber structure and black rubber strap. The dial contains two subsidiary dials for 30 minutes and 12 hours counters, which have been painted a mid-blue color.

The Oris Williams F1 watch is really a fine timepiece in my opinion. You get a watch with an extremely sporty feel and at a price that is not too high-priced; especially for a watch that comes with automatic movement. Oris watches do not seem to age as badly as some others, as I've stated, I own 1 and nonetheless enjoy wearing it.
