What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Oris Aquis Date Upcycle

Owners widely appreciate the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle's unique, colorful dials made from recycled PET plastic, noting the strong conservation message and artistic look. Reviewers consistently highlight the robust Aquis build, 300m water resistance, and reliable Sellita SW 200-1 movement. Some owners find the dial's appearance inconsistent, and one reviewer notes its complexity can impact legibility for a dive watch. The 41.5mm version offers a more muted palette, and the movement provides a 38-hour power reserve. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle highly for its distinctive, eco-conscious dial and solid dive watch construction at the price.

From video reviewers

High-quality build is a notable feature of the Oris Aquis Date Upcycle. A potential drawback is that the multicolored recycled plastic dial may not appeal to everyone. Reviewers disagree on the importance of size, with one reviewer praising the watch's smaller size and another preferring a larger watch.

Fortis Marinemaster M-40

Owners praise the Fortis Amber Orange for its gorgeous appearance and strong wrist presence, noting its crazy lume and 70-hour power reserve. The Doxa SUB 300T, described as having a superb, eccentric design with a highly legible dial and functional no-decompression bezel, uses an ETA 2824-2 movement. However, the SUB 300T's 42.5mm case wears large and its 14mm thickness is not ideal for dress shirts, though it boasts 1,200m water resistance. On balance, owners appreciate the Fortis Amber Orange for its striking aesthetics and impressive lume.
