The Oris cal. 400 is found in the ProPilot

On March 27, 2023, Oris introduced a ProPilot X Kermit special edition with a lime green dial and a Kermit the Frog emoji on that shows up on the first of every month. Although this model has a unique datewheel, they did not issue a unique caliber number and still refer to it as caliber 400.

Oris aquis date calibre 400, so Great watch by Oris . I own the aquis calibre 400 for about 2 years without issue , warranty of course 10 years and service after 10 years . Already collectable watch. The part of 5 days power reserved is a hint for a mechanical watch .

It seems that Oris has released version 2 (Cal 400-2) of this caliber, to address 2 technical issues: 1- Minute hand jumping when setting time, in certain conditions; 2- Border of the rotor too light, which leads to under-winding (not enough mechanical energy stored) and stopping of the watch, under certain conditions. My Oris Aquis Date 400 already has this caliber revision seen on the back of the watch.

The other issue is that they went with a rotor mechanism that only winds in one direction. I always assumed that rotors wind both clockwise and counter clockwise but not this one. Will be interested to see if they correct that in the next version.

My Aquis 400 is one year old and it runs 12 seconds fast when fully wound (210 turns!!) and loses power reserve even when worn daily so I dropped it off at the AD. They said that there is now a 400-3 movement that they will install.

It took 4 months to get the movement replaced. It had to go to the Oris service center in Boston and then they had to procure one from Switzerland. It returned with a -2, not the -3 that I heard about, even though the AD said that’s what they’d like install.

I haven’t tested it yet and am trying to sell it at the moment. They should have continued with the Sellita movements. This one was not ready for prime time.
