Oris Aqua Date.

Hi all. So as a 40th present from my dad i was given a voucher for a watch.

 

I was torn between the blue sunburst dial or the green bezel. I think i made the right choice.

 

One reason for the choice was the movement. Based on the ETA 2824 with my limited knowledge a really solid movement.

 

See for your self

James.

The right choice indeed!  Very nice, there aren't enough greens out there in my opinion...

Very Nice . You can't go wrong with a movement based on the ETA 2824...........

I don't really mod my watches , but I put a green bezel insert on this Seiko 7S26 and not only do I like it , but I have received a few compliments and offers to buy it .... The double dome sapphire crystal with a blue tint is nice too .

Love the green. Much more vibrant than mine is that an aftermarket part or did they produce it in a model?

Aloha Gingerr6 , 

  Both the Bezel insert and the crystal are AM parts . Seiko had the Black or Pepsi bezel on most of their divers at that time . At some time they offered a blue dial and bezel option . The rest of the watch is original .

I had just installed the DD saphire crystal on these 3 Seiko Divers and sent some pics to the vender for their gallery of customers watches . 

 

 

BTW , I don't have an Oris watch yet , and something like yours would be a nice addition , especially with that workhorse movement . You said "based on the ETA 2924"  . So which movement is in your watch ?  Is it the Chinese version ??

Yes full swiss movement. sellita started producing the 200 series. These are identical to the 2824 with the addition of an extra jewel. (i think)
