The Oris Carl Brashear Cal. 401 Limited Edition is powered by a new in-house Oris movement

It’s with great pride that we introduce the Oris Carl Brashear Cal. 401 Limited Edition, created in support of the Carl Brashear Foundation. Furthermore, we are delighted that this special watch, which is limited to 2,000 pieces, becomes the first watch to carry Oris Calibre 401, the second movement from our new family of in-house automatics. The new watch is cased in 40 mm of bronze, a material chosen to symbolise not just the diving helmets worn by Carl during his career as a U.S. Navy Master Diver, but also because it’s a metal that will tell its own story. Bronze is a natural material that patinates as it reacts with oxygen in the air and moisture from your skin. Over time, it will take on a unique finish, like a visual chronicle of the wearer’s own life wearing the watch. Inside it is the automatic Oris Calibre 401. Based on Calibre 400, launched last year.

Anti-magnetic
Calibre 401 has more than 30 anti-magnetic components and exceeds the norms required by the ISO 764 enhanced anti-magnetic standard.

Five-day power reserve
For many reasons, you may not wear a mechanical watch every day. Calibre 401 has a five-day power reserve so it’s ready to go when you are.

A 10-year warranty
A modern luxury watch should be reliable. Any Oris watch carrying Calibre 401 is guaranteed for 10 years when you register it at MyOris.

It was designed from the ground up by Oris’s in-house watchmakers. As well as being more accurate than a chronometer (to within -3 to +5 seconds a day), it solves many of the mechanical movement problems of our time by offering heightened levels of anti-magnetism, a five-day power reserve and a 10-year extended warranty. Oris Calibre 401 differs from Calibre 400 in that it features a small seconds at 6 o’clock, an Oris signature. It’s a movement designed to overcome life’s knocks – a timeless symbol of the spirit shown by Carl Brashear throughout his life of service. The watch also has a blue dial, inspired by naval tradition, a uni-directional rotating bronze bezel with a diving scale in relief, and a custom-designed, hand-crafted, moisture- wicking woven elastic nylon webbing strap produced for this watch by Erika’s Originals.

“It’s not a sin to get knocked down. It’s a sin to stay down.” These are the words of Carl Brashear, one of the 20th century’s most enduring figures of triumph in adversity. Carl overcame numerous challenges, both on account of his background and later disability, to become the U.S. Navy’s first African American diver and first amputee Master Diver. He is a man of honour and an inspiration to people all over the world. In 2015, as part of our mission to bring Change for the Better, Oris partnered with the Carl Brashear Foundation, set up in his memory and to continue his legacy. It’s been our privilege since then to work with the foundation and in particular Carl’s son Phillip and his family. Now, we’re delighted to announce a third watch bearing his name, the Pushing for change As part of our mission to bring Change for the Better, Oris partners with the Carl Brashear Foundation, which brings hope to many.
