That additional feature would have made an already nice bracelet, much nicer, IMHO.

 

quote from site - Introducing: The Next-Generation Oris Aquis Date

If you choose the Cal 400 Aquis Date (43.5mm) or the 36.5mm 733-powered Aquis, the bracelet also includes quick-release and an on-wrist micro-adjustment system Oris is calling the "Quick Adjust Clasp System." Interestingly, though the full-spec is only available as stock on the 43.5mm Cal 400 model and the 733-powered 36.5mm model, Oris has ensured that the straps are interchangeable for the new Aquis, both between the 41.5 and 43.5mm modules and iterations with either movement. I spoke with Oris, and they confirmed that one could – for example – buy a 41.5mm Aquis Date and then buy/fit the bracelet from the 43.5mm (with its quick release and quick adjust systems). This goes for the rubber options as well.


so it does have micro adjust then.

Why in the world would they not include it on the 41.5? SMH....

 

I’m not a Christopher ward fan, but imo they have the best bracelet in the business. Quick release and tool less micro adjustment. That should be the standard.

 

Looking primarily at the 36.5 since that’s what I wear — I don’t like that the watch looks more generic now. It seems like it had the most (subtle) updates.

 

Why would the bracelet on the 43.5 and 41.5 be interchangeable? I would think the lugs would be different sized, are they not?

 

you are right, I contacted Oris, they said that the 41.5 and 43.5 are not interchangeable

 

No matter what the spec I’m a huge fan of Oris bracelets.

 

41.5mm seems to be the loser here.

 

Oh my God, they finally did it! I've owned two aquises over the years, and to this day it's still my favorite watch by a HUGE margin. The only reason I sold them was because I need a micro adjust throughout the day. I think my Pelagos may finally get the boot, this is a forever watch for me if I've ever seen one!

Now the question will be if these will be available separately and retrofittable to the old 43.5mm aquis. I'd love to get another Clipperton and put one of these on it.

 

No, I don't think they'll fit. The centre links are wider. My condolences.

 

Oh well, guess that means a new 43.5mm Aquis Calibre 400 is in my future. That dial face looks almost like the blue that was on my clipperton anyway.

 

I got the recently updated Aquis Calibre 400 yesterday at the AD.

I really like it and the minor updates they did are noticeable when comparing models in person. The quick adjust clasp is nice.

 

So the quick adjust clasp is present. The sun burst blue dial looks good. Congrats on that watch.

 

Watch is hard to photograph to avoid reflections on the dial. Still liking it a lot. A fun summer watch.

 

So does the 41.5mm Aquis have a toolless micro adjustable bracelet?

Does anyone know if the blue dial of the old Aquis and the new one are the same?
Hard to tell, but it seems to the Calibre and Selita still have different dial finishes according to the Oris website photos.

The biggest thing, it seems Oris has discontinued the 41.5mm in calibre version. So you can't get the nicer dial colour unless you buy the 43.5mm. That's a real shame!!!!

 

So any update? Has Oris finally put that quick adjust clasp on the older style bands or made it available?

Perhaps just make it so that people can replace the clasp?

I have one of the first versions of the 400 and it’s 24 mm. Looks like the newer 400s are 23mm?
Does the quick adjust clasp come on the regular Oris Aquis 43.5mm or just the 400?

 

I hope they bring this to their other lines, like the D65. I'm holding off on a 12H until it has toolless micro adjust like this.

 

Can i just buy the clasp? any luck?
