This limited edition from Oris is celebrating water and the Rhine river. This river runs not far from the the village of Holstein, where Oris is based since 1904. The case has a diameter of 43.5 mm. It may seem large but the watch can fit small 16cm wrists, due to the bending lugs. The dial has a sunburst blue-grey color. It is in fact quite tricky to describe the color as it can become mor blue or grey depending of the light.

The watch possesses a date function. The date is not shown in a classic date-window. Here the date is indicated by a marker moving around a ring of numerals in the middle of the dial. In comparison with the dial, the rotating bezel color is matte grey.

The serpentine route that the Rhine river, from the Lai Da Tuma lake to the North Sea, is revealed on the case back. The number of the watch is also mentioned (2323 pieces).

The watch is powered by an Oris 733 caliber, which is based on the Sellita SW200-1. This caliber is similar to the ETA 2824-2 caliber. It is hacking and handwinding. This caliber offers a 38 hour power reserve and a date function. The watch comes with a grey rubber strap with an adjustable foldover clasp and a dive extension. As the lugs are very thick, it may be difficult to find alternative strap if you want to chang ethe style of the watch.

An original release from Oris. Here is a 300M diver, that does not look like Submariner. I like the sunburst dial color and its changing blue-grey color. The circular date feature has been well implemented. There is no date-window, that distubes the symmetry of the watch. It is a 43.5 mm diver but it does not look out of proportions on small wrist (at least 16 cm). So it is an interesting piece for those who want an uncommon diver, that looks a bit dressier than usual.
