Stepping up in Oris's range
The Cotton Candy line grew from the all-bronze case architecture Oris developed for the Hölstein Edition 2020 — bezel, crown, and bracelet all in bronze — then repurposed that platform for something lighter in spirit, pairing it with a small set of vivid dial colours. This reference is the wild green, and the combination of warm, aged-toned bronze against that particular green is the whole idea: a diver's watch that happens to look as though it is enjoying itself. At 38mm it sits on the wrist without imposing, and the 47.7mm lug-to-lug span means it carries that size honestly rather than running long on the wrist. The 13.1mm thickness comes largely from the domed sapphire, which curves the reflection of whatever is overhead into something almost liquid on the green dial. The bracelet is stainless rather than bronze, which reads as a deliberate contrast — the silver links keep the wrist end clean while the case accumulates its patina above it. The screw-down crown is signed and tactile but benefits from deliberate handling; the movement through its positions rewards patience rather than speed. The bronze itself will darken in wear, settling into whatever the owner's days look like, and that process can be wound back at any point with a dilute salt-and-vinegar solution if preferred — though most owners find they prefer not to.

Learn more about Oris
Paul Cattin and Georges Christian took over an empty factory in Hölstein in 1904 and named the company after a nearby gorge. It stayed independent, and stayed in that valley, for its entire history.
Oris built its reputation on volume mechanical watches made properly. By the 1960s it was among the largest Swiss employers in the sector, producing hundreds of thousands of movements a year. Its most curious historical footnote is regulatory: Swiss law restricted the number of jewels a watch could contain under certain classifications, and Oris fought a decade-long legal battle to be permitted to fit lever escapements — winning in 1968.
The quartz crisis nearly ended it. The company was bought out of the ASUAG conglomerate in 1982 by two managers, Rolf Portmann and Ulrich Herzog, who took it back to mechanical watches exclusively at precisely the moment the rest of the industry was abandoning them.
That independence remains the point. Oris is one of the few Swiss houses of any scale with no group ownership, and it competes on value rather than prestige — dive watches, pilot's watches, and the Big Crown line descended from its 1938 pointer calendar. The house developed its own Calibre 400 family from 2020, offering five-day power reserves and ten-year service intervals at prices well below the norm for in-house movements.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedHow long does it run for when it's not worn?
About 38 hours fully wound — so it will usually stop if you leave it off overnight.
