The Oris Artelier Calibre 111 is a milestone in modern independent watchmaking. Introduced in 2014 to celebrate Oris’s in-house movement program, the Calibre 111 combines traditional Swiss craftsmanship with the brand’s characteristic practicality.
Housed in a 43 mm stainless-steel case, this reference features a silver-grey dial with applied indices, a running seconds sub-dial at 9 o’clock, and a power-reserve indicator spanning 3 to 5 o’clock. The manually-wound Calibre 111 inside is fully developed by Oris, boasting an impressive 10-day power reserve from a single barrel and a non-linear power-reserve display — a rare feature at this price point.
The watch is fitted with a domed sapphire crystal, exhibition caseback, and comes on a black crocodile-pattern leather strap with folding clasp.
This watch isn’t about flash — it’s about engineering patience. This is Oris showing what it can do when it isn’t just building another diver. Inside beats the hand-wound Calibre 111, a movement designed entirely in-house with a single barrel that keeps running for ten days straight.
The dial layout is quietly confident: the long power-reserve arc and offset seconds bring a sense of calm order. Through the sapphire caseback, the movement architecture is open and honest — no gimmicks, just well-finished mechanics.
It’s a watch for someone who likes mechanical endurance more than hype, and who appreciates a long wind every week as part of their rhythm.
Full kit, original box and papers and in very good condition. A few minor signs of wear on the high polished case flanks. The box pleather is peeling somewhat but this is a normal trait of this material.
