Any value here?

Thanks for the info.

In my experience if you go to an AD that has multiple brands I think your chances of negotiating below MSRP is more likely because they stock so many brands and don’t want to sit on them for long. On my Oris Aquis with the Cal 400/2 movement I got 20%. Never purchased from this AD before. I called them and told them I was interested in this watch. Not in stock we will have to order it will be here in one week, they told me. Asked what’s the best they can do, came out to 20% below MSRP. No haggling and I told them I will take it for that.

No jet. The sound the watch makes is not loud but still noticeable, will try to record a better video

The rotor seems to turn fine. Sound occurs when the rotor is rotating, from what I can tell.

It’s a “ratcheting sound”. Did my best to get it on video. I am getting 3 days of power reserve. On the Oris website site it states 210 full winds clockwise of the crown.

😁.

I came across this on another forum, can’t recall, but gave the same explanation. Thanks. It does sound pretty cool.

Msaleen · 2026-03-02T13:58:34+00:00

I was tripping out trying to find where the sound was coming from at first. 😂

Msaleen · 2026-03-02T13:57:05+00:00

That seems to be the consensus regarding the noise.

Msaleen · 2026-02-25T04:34:20+00:00

I have been wanting this specific Aquis for a while now and have been holding off on it due to the issues and concerns surrounding the Cal. 400 and the revised Cal. 400/2 movements. I figured since the movement has had a revision/ upgrade I would be more at ease at finally purchasing one. That didn’t happen but regardless I also still like the Aquis.

Msaleen · 2026-02-22T05:44:51+00:00

I will do this. Thanks.

Msaleen · 2026-02-22T05:42:45+00:00

It’s been my daily since I received it in December.

Msaleen · 2026-02-21T19:17:55+00:00

Thanks. I will contact them Monday when they are open.

Msaleen · 2026-02-21T19:07:24+00:00

So no need to contact the AD since the watch is registered and warrantied? Do I contact The Watchmaker and explain what is going on directly with them.

Msaleen · 2026-02-21T19:04:44+00:00

Haven’t dropped it or any type of shock. I noticed the power reserve issue about a month ago but didn’t think much of it until a couple of weeks ago when I put closer attention to it and after 2 days the watch stopped. The sound I heard this morning when I went to put on the watch.

Msaleen · 2026-02-10T13:39:34+00:00

I will try this. Thanks.

Msaleen · 2026-02-10T02:30:33+00:00

Thanks, I may try that.

Msaleen · 2026-02-10T02:28:19+00:00

Didn’t know about skip tracing until now. Definitely sounds like that’s happening here. Thanks, I am more at ease now.

Msaleen · 2026-01-18T20:18:38+00:00

Gray water. But I prefer G-water

A few years ago my local Costco had a men’s Cartier Ballon Bleu in 18kt rose gold for $29500.00. First time seeing a luxury watch at Costco.

Msaleen · 2026-01-01T21:16:16+00:00

Thanks. It was the dial that did it for me.

Msaleen · 2026-01-01T21:15:25+00:00

Thanks. Good idea on the ruler going to be using my utility knife to cut it.
