Several brands do.

Including Omega I noticed. At least for some pieces.

Adam I know you really like this watch as I do too. I hada chance to pick up a month old black dial last week for a great price. I stumbled across this thread while doing some research. I passed for now.

I ordered one and when it arrived it wore so small I sent it back. Very nice watch and some huge discounts available, just not for me.

Initially I was thinking of using it for a watch to wear to work in the summer months. Not too big and heavy. I'm still open to it...sort of. More concerned about parts if need be than anything else.

Did you order the black or black/blue?

[PanosI]

I love the 65

I tried both yesterday. I think that the black would be my first purchase for the 2016.






Here are a few shots.






















And a comparison size shot with my 16710.

















The absolutely awesome thing, verified by a WUS member ( Buchmann69 ) which his pics I'll show you below, is that the bracelet of the 16710, 78790A, is a perfect fit to the 65

That's a good looking watch in black.

Something about the blue is not quite right for me... maybe a faded bezel, or different date wheel color choice? I can't quite put my finger on it. I want to like it more.

I'll have to go see for myself. Thanks for posting pictures.

Very good looking watch, and the specs are impressive. But I need to learn more about the Oris brand before I consider shelling out that kind of money.

Very nice looking. The metal band changes the look up.

I'm still hoping to get a new one when I go to Europe in April, Paulie. I like that it seems to fit on a Rolex bracelet above, too! As far as servicing an spares for this one in future, it's just a Selitta movement, so shouldn't be a problem I guess.

I just bought one and it will be at my house tomorrow!

It is going to replace an ORIS tt1 Diver, and the 40mm sixty-five is a welcome change from the 44mm tt1.

I bought it on the tan strap, but have the oris rubber band and metal bracelet on the way!

I am really looking forward to it! If anyone wants details on where i bought it and what i paid, feel free to PM me...

Servicing the movement won't be an issue at all. It's when it comes time for something else...like a crystal or crown. It'll have to go straight back to Oris. From what I read their service hasn't been the greatest.

Ok, that's different then. There's an Oris service centre not far from me, but never tried them. Haven't had an Oris since the 1990s!

Just got mine today- on the tropic rubber. Oris did a great job on this watch. It's great in the details IMO

I also heard there is a bracelet to be made available from Oris.

[PanosI]

Big congrats, autofiend !

My favourite combo

If you have a 78790A oyster bracelet that comes with the 16710 and 16570, you can use right now to the 65, because is a perfect fit as you can see from the pics in my above post.

Also the 93250 bracelet from the 16610, 166610LV, i have use it to my 16710. So you can also use it to the 65.

Mesh bracelets are cheap from a place like Yobokies. Not like you'll break the bank if you decide you don't like it.

Hi.
Thanks for the info.
Just was wondering if the mesh bracelet would fit to the Oris. I have a few in 18,19 and 20mm.
IMO mesh bracelet can give the Oris a very nice look!

Oh, wow. That rivet bracelet brings it to another level. Very nice. Can someone PM me info on vendors? Thanks.

Rather than start a new thread, I thought I'd share this here! Just spotted on Hodinkee that Oris is making a limited edition divers 65 out of bronze!

Personally I think it's cool! 2,600chf isn't too horrendous either.

My 78790A oyster (and most probably the 62510H jubilee) is anxiously waiting for the 65 !

If memory serves me well a friend of mine was using a five digit sea dweller bracelet with his 16710. So I am guessing that will fit to the 65.
