For more than a century Swiss watch manufacturer Oris has been creating quality timepieces offered at an attractive price point. Their product lines deliver compelling aviation, motor sports, diving, and culture timepieces at an exceptional value. This Oris Artelier James Morrison Academy of Music timepiece is refined watch of distinction. As a limited-edition timepiece, only 1,234 pieces were produced. As the name suggests, this beauty celebrates Australian jazz multi-instrumentalist James Morrison. As such, its see-through case back is engraved with the Academy of Music logo. The sleek stainless steel case measures 38 mm in diameter and rests upon a black calfskin leather strap with a stainless steel deployant buckle for added safety. Other case features include a domed antireflective scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a push / pull winding crown, and a 30 m / 3 atm water resistance.
The minimalist blue dial sports Arabic numerals, a sweep seconds hand, and luminous hands filled with Superluminova GG W9 for easy viewing in low-light scenarios. As a self-winding automatic timepiece, this watch is driven by the Oris 733 caliber, which is based upon SW 200-1 and possesses 26 jewels, beats at 28,800 vph, and delivers a 38-hour power reserve.
