Nice. The Aquis has never appealed to me, but I’m happy to see Oris putting their in-house movement into their flagship dive watch.

CW, take note! Put the SH21 into a standard non-LE C60!

Getting into BB58 territory on price. That said, it's quite a different watch and a good alternative in the marketplace. Will be interesting to see how well it does. I do wish them well with it.

SH21 as an alternative offering in a regular C60? Bring it on. I wonder if production capacity is what holds that back? IF it fits in a 40mm case, what a thing a Sapphire SH21 would be!
