I may never be able to afford most of these watches but my lord I really enjoy these videos. Very vell made from start to end. Especially the intros. Bought a Seiko turtle a few weeks ago and just love it. Thanks for the hard work here TGV.

I have 2 Seiko turtles: one with the anthracite gray dial which I put an Uncle Seiko rubber chocolate bar strap on, and a "King Turtle" with the OD green waffle dial and ceramic bezel on which I put the steel bracelet from another turtle I used to have. I'm about to pull the trigger on the limited re-issue 6105. As you can see, I really like my turtles, LOL! You made a great choice!

jim wilson the turtle is a great watch ………… good taste congrats !

I actually LOVE the integrated bracelet on the Aquis. It gives it a strong and secure feel as well as a uniform and cohesive look. I don't mind integrated bracelets as long as it's done really well, such as the Aquis.

Just bought an Orient Ray II to celebrate me getting into nursing school Cheers!

Great career and great choice! Congrats and good luck! I'm the nurse too and I always suggest to my colleagues (or soon to be as you are) to get a watch with crew down crown. Every other time when glows are taken off they pull the crown out, it's easy to miss and when you wash your hands water goes in! That's how I ruined my Seiko Chronograph. Please consider this if you guys love your watch. Peace!

I also bought a ray II this week, amazing watch for the money, the cheap bracelet is the only negative. But i already ordere a better quality bracelet from strap code.

Congratulations on your purchase and congratulations on getting into nursing school, nurses are the backbone of medicine and everything we do is because of their hard work! I work in the medical field too, my Sea Dweller is about the same size as your ray II and is a very wearable daily watch, wear your new watch in good health my friend!

I've always loved the look of this watch. Thanks for revisiting it for us. Much love

That is one of the most unique case back I've ever seen. It is gorgeous.

Hello, TGV, glad to see another indept view at the Oris Aquis making me even more trigger happy on buying it and the way it plays with the light its just so beautifull to look at!

I deeply appreciate your detailed review that covers every aspects in the watch. This really helps me to fully understand Oris Aquis. If I were buying one someday, it’s all because of this video :) Thank you again!

Agree totally. Amazed at all the different complications available on this model too, including a GMT, mechanical depth gauge, regulator and even a Chronograph. Ultimate tool watch for whatever you get up to, especially the titanium one!

TGV, you never cease to amaze....that intro was beguiling. The entire video was spot on! I too have been a fan of the Aqis for quite a while, and after your video I appreciate it even more. Extremely well done. Thanks. Onward and upward!

The Aquis is just awesome!!! I bought my 43,5mm blue dial after seeing your previous review, 2 yrs ago! It was my first ’more expensive’ watch. My absolute favorite in my collection! This new incarnation is a real stunner!👌🏼

I am a 17 y/o who has been watching your vids for a few months now and you have really helped me develop a passion for watches. I have finally decided to take the plunge with a Seiko Alpinist, a Tissot le locle powermatic 80 and a Dan Henry 1962 'evil panda'. Many thanks, Oliver.

Purchased one of the Clean Oceans back in July, after waiting 4 months for the initial release...can honestly say it didn't disappoint, and nearly a year on it's still a pleasure to wear...photos will never do this timepiece justice!! Great video once again!!

Really enjoyed watching this one while wearing my Oris Aquis Clean Ocean. Picked mine up about 3 months ago, and has barely left my wrist since. It was really cool seeing how different the case back is on the one in your video compared to mine, makes it feel truly unique!

I bought the exact same version of the Aquis in February and it's my favorite Aquis EVER! Thank god they made a stunning blue dial in a 39mm size. It's just beautiful for smaller wrists... thanks Oris & thanks TGV for this review!

Urban Gentry videos are pure class and truly educational. Case in point: I have always admired the Aquis, but never pulled the trigger for the reasons pointed out in this video. I did, however, buy a Christopher Ward Trident 600 Pro based on a previous TGV review, and I absolutely adore that watch. Having watched this video, I am looking at the Aquis with new eyes. It is beautiful and, who knows, there might well be a place in my collection for another expensive (for me) Swiss diver. Thank you for these great, informative reviews.

I found your channel a few days ago and I can't stop watching your videos, great job !!!

So glad for the new review. This recently became my grail watch!

I love the mix of high end and low end reviews!

Tris that was such a brilliant review. As an English student, I'm inspired by your writing! And that aquis has been on my list for a long time now. Have a cracking day mate

Wow, this intro is outstanding! All intros are great here, but this particular one is just so good!

Recently got my first full time "big boy" job as a science teacher, so to celebrate I treated myself to this beautiful watch. When I finished my undergrad biomed degree I bought a Hamilton pilot day date. For my eventual 30th I've got my sights set on a Railmaster. And for everything in between, I know I'll have the fun and camaraderie of these videos and the UGWC to no doubt influence other purchases. Been watching for a few years now and it never stops being a pleasure. You introduced me to the SKX and from there it has been a never ending ride. Cheers TGV.

Such timing! Just picked up my aquis today!

I have seen your video from your collection of 2019 and I must say I am impressed, you clearly don't follow the masses, your collection it's very private and with 'soul'. I must say it's the best collection I've ever seen, Bravo

I received an Aquis 43.5 mm, blue dial with black rubber strap to celebrate my 40th birthday a couple of months ago. I absolutely adore it. I get so many questions and compliments about it and wear it as a daily. - Great review as always :)

I own the 39.5mm Aquis with blue dial for almost 2 years. I love it and wear it every day with pride. The integraded bracelet is a major part of the look and charm of the watch, like the Nautilus and Royal Oak. The quality and comfort of the bracelet made me also to look not of other options. Best diver under 2k for sure! Best regards from Holland

About six months ago I watched your video when I couldn't sleep..and I got hooked. Since then I've bought a TAG HEUER, Seiko Prospex and most recently an Orient MAKO III. Keep up the great videos.

I purchased this watch about a month ago and you're right on target with your assessment. I look forward to wearing this watch whenever I can! To me it is absolutely perfect and the quality is top notch. I think it may have spoiled me a little looking at other watches in this price range. Add the "feel good" factor and it's a no-brainer hit!

Thank you for this review, as a still relatively new collector I have yet to break the $1,000 mark with any of my watches and this definitely has me thinking

Beautiful watch, this is the first time I've seen/heard any detailed information on Oris, and I'm very impressed. Another great Video, love the watch, Thanks.

I got my Oris 39.5 about a year ago and it is still my favorite watch, the quality and feel of the bracelet is great. I like that it has a beautiful dial and the size is perfect for my skinny wrist which is rare to have smaller watches in the diver area

The intro was SICK I loved it!!! Need more of those!!!!

Love the gradient blue dial. Simply stunning

I just got my first seiko today and its the skx i needed a field watch, being stationed in japan it rains alot. I really started getting into watches after watching all your videos thank you for getting me into the hobby. I find more marines and try to turn them to the hobby as well THANK U

Oris Aquis - Source of life edition is the best looking diver in any price point. Amazing watches!

Every time I think I'm out, you keep pulling me back at in! This watch is a work of art and the sea plastic seal on the back effectively makes it a one off. I'm never going to have any money but maybe a awesome watch collection

I have to say.. the intros you make get better every time! Good job man. Just bought a squale 50 atmos in blue and i love it. keep up the good work 👍🏼

As usual your videography is impeccable, sublime. The videography definitely compliments this watch. Oris is well served by your presentation. All the best - RKL

I have a black brushed stainless Oris Aquis 39.5 that I bought back in October and I'm as in love with it today as the day I got it. Great video!

That 6 o’clock date is almost unnoticeable and that oyster flipped brushed center, polished outer bracelet is soooo handsome. Beautiful and balanced. I have to have one

Lovely ‘rising from the depths’ analogy too.

Currently wearing my oris divers. Wonderful dive watch for the price.

TGV does the best intros! They get me so hyped every time!!

Great show very well done thank you

Late last year I was planning on purchasing this watch, I slowly walked away from that idea until today. You've put this to the top of my list. Well done on a brilliant video

Great review TGV! I agree with you, this is the 'most meaningful limited edition' out there. Owners should wear it with pride. I remember Aquis being a discussion topic at a South Korean online watch forum once. Someone made a very interesting point: Aquis actually has the best looking dial in the diver watch market, and people would buy Aquis instead of Submariner if both pieces were 'brandless'. I still think about that sometimes.

Good evening TGV, thank you for giving us in depth insight into the Oris brand! It's always a brand that is a little under the radar and that one has to experience himself. I was very pleased to experience the Aquis first hand. Incredible value! Have a great Saturday!

@@toonlad4091 #117 here. I live near a Oris AD and I have to say that the new Lake Baikal edition looks amazing too!

I owned the larger green Aquis (the very one TGV reviewed on this channel!) and it is an outstanding watch. I let it go mostly because I am a strap spaz and did not care for the integrated bracelet. I still appreciate the new Aquis models and this example is simply stunning! (I almost bought one myself) If any one is interested in an alternative of equal quality from a path less traveled, check out the Monta OceanKing. Equal depth rating, thinner case, beautifully applied markers, SW300 or ETA 2892 movement regulated to +/- 5 SPD (I think they are still doing this, my OceanKing runs at +3 SPD), and an outstanding bracelet with "glide-lock" type adjustment.

Looking fresh in this video, thanks for another great video!

Btw, I live in Ithaca-NY, so I have to say that featuring Odyssey in the background was a great touch.

A fantastic review of an amazing watch!! I simply love your videos...

Just bought my first Oris Aquis Date. It’s 43.5mm with the sunburst grey dial and the relief bezel (Yachtmaster-like) on a bracelet. I dig it. MRSP $2,300. I found mine on Fleabay, worn 4 times, two months old and purchased directly from Oris with the 2 + 1 yr registered warranty. My final winning auction bid you ask? $938.00 usd. Just over 1k with tax and shipping. Thrilled to death with the purchase and watch. Now, Oris just told me to grab my ankles as I shell out $315.00 for their proprietary black rubber strap and clasp…

Superb informational video; I must admit to my lack of knowledge about this brand, but you sir, have enlightened me.

Oris is my favorite attainable brand. I have four, including two Pro Pilots, a rectangular and an Aquis on the strap. Love them all! Tremendous quality, design and relative value.

I have 6.5" wrist and usually wear 39~40mm divers. I tried 39.5mm Aquis but it's too small. I just ordered a new 41.5mm one and it's phenomenal!

Wow that's great! I just bought the exact same watch a week ago! I absolutely love this version and it has a perfect size. I nowadays own a lot of watches up to Rolex, Omega, Breitling and even a modern AP. But I have to say that this Aquis is at least on par with Omega. And that's simply stunning for this price! The only drawback compared to Omega is the movement in terms of accuracy as well as decoration. But then you have again to compare the prices so nothing wrong with the Oris Aquis here. All the best from Germany!

Loved this one. I've been thinking about an Aquis lately. It does sort of bum me out that it seems like the higher-end you go in divers the fewer day/dates you find. The entry level is full of them from Seiko, Orient, etc. but as soon as you get closer to $1000 and you start also wanting sapphire glass and ceramic bezel inserts, all of the sudden you can't find any.

I've looked at this, but that Bronze 65 keeps calling me. What a beautiful combo.

Just picked up a 1991 tag heuer professional 1000, box and papers. Lovely watch, not as pricey as some of my others, but a real eye catcher. Lovely new daily beater.

This episode may have had your best intro yet. I really enjoyed it.

Great video! This aquis is my dream watch

Again great production video. I’m afraid I only joined the channel a while back so I’m still going through old videos but absolutely loving them. To be honest I only discovered Oris thanks to your videos. I had seen them from afar but was not impressed due to the shape of the bezel but that changed.

Love all your videos, going to search your previous videos on why Tag Heuer is so hated by watch people. Keep up the great work.

I am incredibly happy with my new Oris. It is extremely accurate and I am blown away by its charm.

Just picked up an Oris Staghorn Restoration. I couldn’t be happier.

great content as always ,,I REALLY love this watch

I tried the 39.5 on at an AD but it looked and bit too dainty on the wrist so I went for the 43.5 instead. Great watches but I reckon the 41.5 will be THE perfect one.

Great upload TGV! I totally agree with your conclusions about the Aquis. I've borrowed my mate's Aquis a couple of times and I keep telling myself I shouldn't buy one because of the integrated bracelet. However, every time I return the watch I somehow miss it... Maybe I should just stop questioning myself and buy one before they get even more pricey. Looking forward to the next one. Regards, Koen

Truly enjoyed this video, keep up the good work. I take it from your enthusiasm this is in another league from the Longines and Tag offerings?!

Great video! Reviews of watches in this price bracket are greatly appreciated (Sinn, Glycine, Laco et cetera).

Beautiful watch, great video with a high level of information, I and an Oris man and would choose it over anything else simply because of its aesthetics dating back to the tt1 kettle shaped cases and through to the new Aquis. Stunning piece.

Good evening TGV. Splendid video, I think the Oris mechanical depth gage is so cool. I’m always impressed with Oris, definitely a Gentry classic!

It's awesome to hear rnevan got into nursing school. I just finished my first semester of nursing school and I'm thinking of getting an Oris aquis hammerhead to celebrate.

Great video TGV. I'm glad you went back over the history of their modern divers. I'm wearing my 300m TT1 today and I still prefer the look of this to the Aquis. Personally, I think the bracelet is that good I wouldn't want to change it. I love the originality of Oris designs and they certainly hold their own against watches costing double the price.

Agree 100% Sir.

Have the Clean Ocean myself and really enjoy it. In my opinion, the Aquis is the best-looking modern diver out there, and the incredible quality of the bracelet means that I don't begrudge the lack of options of replacing it with a different strap.

Amazing Video as always! Greetings from Germany

TGV you are amazing. Love the level of sophistication of you videos. BTW say Hi to Hugo , He's the real brains behind the production.

Got it in green and rubber strap, amazing watch!

Thanks TGV for another superb video. I have deliberated between this watch and the standard blue 39.5 which I ended up buying. First, there is a price bump in the limited edition one worth mentioning. Second, ocean garbage is put in a luxury watch and worn in contact to the skin. If they wanted reflect their recicling efforts they should have made the huge watch box out of this recicled plastic instead. Third, the plastic medalion adds an unwelcomed 1mm to the thickness and gets rid of the exhibition window.

Loving the electronic tune on the intro. Also love Aquis's. K.S
