An Oris drop! Awesome. If MD starts more women's offerings I'm in trouble though, I keep telling my wife this site is not for her.

watchkookMan, this could be a disaster in the making.
Beauty, cooking, knitting, quilting, now women's watches. Massdrop, what are you thinking! 😫

I'd like to be able to do this in anonymous poll form, but that appears to be limited to product pitches directed at the Massdrop buyers.
I'd be interested in knowing, for those who have joined this drop, who is the intended recipient of the watch?
- Male buying for female
- Male buying for self
- Female buying for self
- Other
Edit: I think people are endorsing the replies below to say #MeToo. I didn't think of that hack to do an anonymous poll. I'll keep it in mind for the next time I try something like this.

The quality on the Aquis is amazing, the date flips instantly at midnight with a satisfying click, and the movement is quiet. If you like the colors, you'll love it.

Right now I'm in the "Is this something I'm looking at because I think it's cool, or would my wife like it?" stage. She often wears an old black G-Shock of mine that I wish she'd throw away. I've given her a few watches that I chose because I thought they would replace the G-Shock, to no avail. She wears the new watches, but still wears the G-Shock. Maybe she likes black?
Update: I caved in pretty quick and was order #2.

Pardon me for voicing my opinion on the fucking internet. I'm pissed that Oris is on here, but for the smaller size. That's all. Jesus Christ I can't be mad that I got my hopes up?

hyperchord24If it had standard lugs, I'd rock it in a heartbeat. Granted, I have 6.25 inch wrists and still enjoy my 35mm unisex TAG from the 90s....

I'm down for one, my 1st automatic! As a woman, I really appreciate you guys doing this drop. I don't mind wearing bigger 40mm watches, but anything bigger than that will just look bulky on my wrist.

TayathIt's quite nice. I got my wife the blue one they had last time for Christmas, but this yellow one looks nice also. It's very shiny and almost dressy looking, not a diver vibe at all, although it is in fact a legitimate dive watch.

All this is a unisex watch. I'm not sure why it was not stated unisex. But after doing research online no where is it stated even on Oris https://www.oris.ch.
Here's a link directly to the same watch https://www.oris.ch/en/watch/oris-aquis-date/01-733-7652-4725-07-4-18-34b where it doesn't state for one sex.
Again this is a unisex watch after doing further research. I think for a male like myself this fits on my wrist perfectly after looking at the sizing.
I hope this gives you all the decision to pick this watch up regardless male or female. Great price to pick it up being that this is a $1000.00 watch if you look online depending where it's being sold. I'm picking up one hands down. Also take a look at urbangentry for a great review on this watch

more info. Yes I know he's reviewing a different color of the watch. That's all. Hope you all enjoy it. Truly a steal for the price.

Mr.mishiI hate to be a broken record, but I bought this for my wife the first time around, and the proprietary tapering strap if nothing else makes it a ladies watch. In the first go around I made many posts here, so please scroll down and read them. For instance, look at the last photo in this post for a good idea of the strap tapering:
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/oris-aquis-ladies-automatic-watch/talk/1875961
And then go to around 6:50 in this video review of a stainless version of this watch to see the reviewer put it on his scrawny wrist:
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/oris-aquis-ladies-automatic-watch/talk/1880559
Finally look at the photos on the twig-like wrist of the Chinese hand model here:
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/oris-aquis-ladies-automatic-watch/talk/1876118
Let me tell you that it looks bigger there than on my petite wife, and I think that part of the reason is that, like most photos in this smart phone age, the lens is wide angle, not a 50-mm equivalent lens.
If you do buy this, promise me one thing: That you will do a wrist shot and post it in this thread, unlike the guys from the first drop, who disappeared after buying it. Take a shot from a couple of feet away to eliminate wide angle distortion.
Also, if you do decide to buy it for yourself, have a distaff backup plan: a spouse or girlfriend to give it to if you change your mind.
If the watch didn't have the proprietary lug system, then you could swap out an 18-mm strap for the 18>14 mm strap and perhaps rehabilitate it as a guy's small watch, but the strap cannot be practically changed. I have watches with 20-mm straps, so a guy with a somewhat thinner wrist than mine could pull off an 18-mm strap, perhaps.
At any rate, I'm glad that this watch is selling pretty well, since it's really nice, and I want to encourage Massdrop to get more stuff like this.

CloacaCloaca, I appreciate the information and I can totally agree with you after looking at the information provided. Thank you for sharing as I've taken your information into consideration and yes, I will agree the tapering on the strap does make this watch a ladies watch. I appreciate the clarification and therefore will not be making the purchase.

Thank you for information. I only had bad experiences with silicon straps but if this one isnt bad ill probably stick to it. Plus it is a diver watch and i wouldnt want water on my leather band.

Buying a spare bracelet from a Swiss watch maker is not something you want to do. God only knows how much it would cost. Just the other day Glycine quoted me the Swiss franc equivalent of $241 plus shipping for a cut-to-fit silicone deployant strap.

Definitely would be interested in more (men’s) drops from Oris.

I got this watch from last drop, thought this might help you guys. My partner bought it thinking it will be ok for male wrists (says so in reviews) and checked photo reviews. I ended up getting it off him because it looked very small on him and he has quite thin wrists. The thing with it is that it seems to appear significantly larger in photos taken with phones (at least iphones). I have taken a photo for your reference (on my wrist - and I have very thin wrist even for females). The watch looks A LOT larger in the photo than what it actually is. It may be the optics? In actual it just looks just like the size for ladies' diver watch (ie larger than ladies' small dress watches). I believe it will look very small for male wrists. As of quality I am no watch savvy. However it never caused any trouble and it does seem to be pretty tough with everyday use. I would say it looks quite nice with low profile, however bear in mind that Oris won't stock any straps or bracelets for ladies' diver watches especially in this black. You do know Oris makes this funny lug which won't fit conventional straps either. The rubber band is really nice though, so no issues for me (think I had this watch for more than 6 months for sure if not 1 year and still going well). The strap stinks initially however gradually it fades out into vanilla like faint scent then disappears. It also tapers a bit and looks fine on my wrist which means it can look quite thin on other people's. If you haven't worn automatic or diver watches it will feel very heavy and thick on you initially but gradually you'll get used to it. Also if you have small wrists like I do you will end up getting strap ends sticking out, and trying to adjust by cutting the opposite end strap will shift the buckle too much to one side. I tried looking for options however leaving it as is seemed to be the best option. If Oris and Massdrop can do some straps or bracelet drop for this watch I woud love to join please. Final verdict : If size fits this is a very nice watch at a great price. [image]
