The new generation of the Oris ProPilot Date maintains the aeronautical essence of the original model but incorporates discreet, well-thought-out improvements.
This new version does not seek to reinvent the collection, but to refine it. It is a disciplined evolution that focuses on better ergonomics, a cleaner aesthetic, and functional details that reinforce its purpose as an everyday tool.
41 mm Design: Refined Proportions and Sharper Lines
The new ProPilot Date keeps the 41 mm diameter, but Oris has adjusted the proportions to achieve a more balanced presence on the wrist. The case, slightly more streamlined, features a thickness of just 11.7 mm—a reduction compared to the previous generation that enhances comfort.
• Finishing: Satin surfaces with polished sides.
• Crown: Larger and redesigned for better grip.
• Bezel: Signature turbine-inspired knurled bezel, now with a more technical look.
• Water resistance: 100 meters.
It is a watch that continues to speak the language of aviation, but with a more precise and contemporary aesthetic.
Three Textured Dials: Black, Chalk, and Moss Green
One of the most visible updates is the new dial palette, featuring sober colors and natural textures that reduce glare and add depth.
• Black – elegant and versatile
• Chalk (slate grey) – minimalist and modern
• Moss (forest green) – organic and distinctive
The applied Arabic numerals and the hands—with white, red, or orange tips depending on the version—ensure instant legibility. A date window is integrated at 6 o’clock, and Super-LumiNova guarantees visibility in all conditions.
A Reliable Movement: Oris Calibre 733
True to its philosophy of an everyday watch, Oris continues to use the Calibre 733, which is not an in-house movement.
It offers a 41-hour power reserve and includes the brand’s signature red rotor.
Bracelet or Strap: Improved Comfort
The attachment options remain simple but highly functional:
Steel bracelet
• Multi-link design aligned with the case finishing.
• New LIFT clasp with sharper bevels.
Suede strap
• Seamless fit.
• The same LIFT folding clasp.
All of this reinforces the concept of a watch built for everyday adventure, not just for aviation.
A Sensible Evolution, Not a Revolution
Oris follows a clear strategy: maintain the character of the ProPilot and refine it where it truly matters. No in-house movements or major structural changes, but meaningful improvements in ergonomics, legibility, and finishing.
The result is a modern, attractive, and highly versatile instrument that preserves its original DNA while gaining refinement.
Its reliable movement makes it an excellent option for anyone looking for a modern pilot’s watch that adapts seamlessly to everyday life.
A piece designed to last, to be worn, and above all, to be enjoyed.
