Oris<\/a> is making waves once again with its latest partnership with the Billion Oyster Project<\/a>. In this blog, we’ll be introducing the Oris Aquis New York Harbor Limited Edition II; a stunning timepiece designed to celebrate and support the mission of restoring one billion oysters to New York Harbor by 2035. Inspired by the beauty of oyster reefs, this watch features a mesmerising aqua-green dial that captures the essence of the harbor\u2019s waters. With only 2,000 individually numbered pieces and proceeds going directly to this vital restoration effort, it\u2019s more than a watch; it\u2019s a statement for sustainability. Let\u2019s dive in and explore why this collaboration is truly a gem!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oris Aquis New York Harbor Limited Edition II<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nestled firmly within Oris’ \u201cChange for the Better\u201d philosophy, the Aquis New York Harbor Limited Edition II blends dive-watch pedigree with eco-conscious purpose. It\u2019s built for real-world use with a 43.5mm multi-piece stainless steel case, a sand-blasted rotating bezel rendered in subtle relief, and a sculpted, quick-adjust bracelet with a matching aqua green rubber strap. However, it\u2019s the dial that steals the show. The aqua-green mother-of-pearl dial, artfully textured with an \u201coyster-shell effect\u201d, dances in the light; echoing the harbor\u2019s waves and shell motifs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than just a pretty dial, this watch channels its impact toward the Billion Oyster Project\u2019s bold goal of restoring a billion oysters to New York Harbor by 2035. This venture is already responsible for reintroducing over 150 million oysters with the help of volunteers and students. Each sale helps fund reef building, shell recycling, and marine education initiatives\u2014making this release truly purposeful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below the surface, the Oris Calibre 733 powers the watch. This movement has a 41-hour power reserve as well as hacking seconds, so both reliability and accuracy are high. Flip the watch over and you\u2019ll find a solid stainless steel caseback. With an engraving of three oysters and the individual edition number, it reinforces the exclusivity of the model. The watch also has a screw-down crown, ensuring an impressive 300 metres of water resistance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Oris Aquis New York Harbor Limited Edition II is more than a stylish diver. It\u2019s a conversation-starter wrapped around a wrist. With its captivating aqua-green dial and meaningful environmental mission, this watch captures both aesthetic allure and purpose-driven storytelling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
