Oris ProPilot X Calibre 400 'Laser'
SKU: 01 400 7778 7150-07 7 20 01TLC
An ultra-light aviator's watch with an optical illusion at its heart
This new Oris ProPilot X represents a technological achievement, as this manufacture calibre-equipped aviator's watch is characterized by a shimmering multi-colored dial produced using an innovative lasering technique never applied in watchmaking before.
Pioneered by the prestigious technical university ETH Zürich, this inventive laser treatment is essentially a surface manipulation that splits the light into its components, creating a stunning, multi-colored rainbow effect that changes depending on your viewing angle. Furthering the optical illusion, there is not one drop of physical color pigment in the dial – the effect is achieved by the laser interacting with the watch’s titanium dial surface in such a way that the light waves reflecting back to your eyes have been 'edited,' and contain only a certain spectrum of the visible light, thereby lending the impression of color.
Powered by the brand's rich aviation heritage and the joy of mechanics, is the Oris manufacture Calibre 400 — the Holstein maker's highly anti-magnetic, five-day, in-house automatic, which makes its no-date debut in this reference. As with every movement in the Calibre 400 Series, Calibre 400 has elevated levels of anti-magnetism, a five-day power reserve and a best-in-class warranty. It’s also accurate to -3/+5 seconds a day – which would comfortably pass chronometer testing – and has 10-year recommended service intervals.
The watch is fitted to a matching three-link titanium bracelet that's secured with the Oris-patented 'LIFT' buckle, inspired by seatbelts found in aircraft cockpits.
