Oris - ProPilot X Calibre 400

Oris presented the new ProPilot X Calibre 400, a sport watch powered by a 5-day in-house automatic movement. Price: CHF 3,900

Oris recently released the ProPilot X Calibre 400, a sport watch inspired by the aviation heritage of the brand and powered by a five-day in-house automatic movement.

Offering water resistance to 10 bar (100 metres / 330 feet), its 39 mm case is crafted from titanium and characterised by angular lines, satin and sandblasted surfaces, an oversized screw-in crown flanked by protectors and the typical bezel.

Protected by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides, the dial is offered in a choice of three dial colours - grey, blue and salmon - with large sword-shaped hour and minute hands filled with Super-LumiNova for enhanced readability in darker environments.

The watch’s sapphire crystal caseback showcases the Oris Calibre 400, a self-winding movement powering hours, minutes, central seconds and date at 6 o'clock. Equipped with a stop second mechanism, this in-house developed movement offers an accuracy of -3/+5 seconds a day.

Carrying a 10-year warranty and a 10-year recommended service interval, this movement has more than 30 non-ferrous and anti-magnetic parts, including a silicon escape wheel and a silicon anchor, to make the watch resistant to most magnetic fields that surround us in common home and work environments.

Its five-day power reserve is delivered by two barrels, both of which house an extended mainspring, each long enough to store two-and-a-half days of power.

Oris also removed the ball bearing system that allows the free-spinning oscillating weight (or rotor) to rotate and replaced it with a low-friction slide bearing system, in which a metal stud runs through a lubricated sleeve. This system offers the advantage of involving far less wear and tear, making

the movement less prone to breakdowns.

Matched to a sculpted titanium bracelet with folding clasp with Oris-patented ‘LIFT’ system, the Oris ProPilot X Calibre 400 has a price of CHF 3,900 / Euro 3,800 / US$ 4,300. oris.ch
