    Lord Vario
    The Oris Aquis Depth Gauge is the first divers watch that can measure depth by allowing water to enter the timepiece. It does this through an inlet at 12 o'clock that leads to a channel milled into the extra thick sapphire crystal. As the diver descends, air in the channel is compressed by water pressure, allowing water to enter and indicate depth on the graduated scale around the dial. This innovative design ensures accurate depth measurement without delay, improving diver safety. The watch features an automatic movement, is water resistant to 500 meters, and includes extra accessories in its presentation case.

    Diving Reaches New Depths


    The Oris Aquis Depth Gauge

    Renowned for producing specialist diving watches, Oris is


    proud to introduce the new Oris Aquis Depth Gauge. At the
    forefront of mechanical watch innovation, Oris has
    harnessed its knowledge, expertise and craftsmanship to
    produce the first divers watch which measures depth by
    allowing water to enter the timepiece.

    Revolutionising the world of professional diving, where safety


    and protection are paramount, Oris' engineers have applied the
    Boyle Mariotte Law to the patented Oris Aquis Depth Gauge.

    The special sapphire crystal, 50% thicker than an average top


    glass, features a channel milled into the side which runs

    rubber gasket.

    On descent, the air inside the channel is compressed by the


    surrounding water pressure, allowing water to enter through the
    inlet at 12 o’clock. The edge, in light grey and dark grey,
    differentiates between water and compressed air on the scale
    around the outside of the dial, indicating depth while descending
    or ascending.

    Diver safety is crucial, and Oris' innovative depth gauge ensures


    accurate depth measurement. The indicator benefits from no
    inertia, not delaying the accurate and actual depth indication –
    particularly useful in decompression breaks in lesser depths.
