Oris Divers Sixty-Five 40mm Green

About This Watch

The Oris Divers Sixty-Five 40mm Green is a masterclass in vintage-inspired dial color — the deep olive-green tone evokes the patinated dials of 1960s military dive watches, where decades of UV exposure transformed original black dials into varying shades of tropical green and brown. Oris captures this aged character deliberately, skipping the decades of waiting and delivering a dial that looks like it has a story to tell from the moment it leaves the box. At 40mm, this Sixty-Five offers a slightly more modern presence than the 38mm variant while maintaining the collection's vintage proportions and character. The domed sapphire crystal creates a pronounced bubble effect over the green dial that further enhances the retro aesthetic, and the aluminum bezel insert in a complementary tone will develop its own patina over time, making each example increasingly unique. The pairing with a brown leather strap creates a warm, earthy combination that feels more autumnal and characterful than the typical blue-and-steel dive watch formula. The vintage-style luminous hour markers and hands glow with a warm cream tone rather than bright green, maintaining the period-correct aesthetic even in low light. The 100-meter water resistance handles pool and beach use without concern, though the leather strap is best swapped for a NATO or rubber option when water exposure is planned. The Sellita-based caliber provides proven reliability, and the exhibition caseback allows appreciation of the decorated movement. At under $2,000, the Sixty-Five Green is one of the most evocative and characterful dive watches in its class.
