Down the River

The Oris Aquis Date is a modern, versatile dive watch that delivers quiet luxury performance with a high level of fine-tuned sophistication. This Yangtze Jiangtun Limited Edition is a special version of the Holstein maker's Aquis Date dive watch with a mother-of-pearl dial. Its mission? To support the Changjiang Conservation Foundation in conserving the critically endangered Yangtze finless porpoise. It’s based on the 43.5mm Aquis Date and has an aqua green dial with a shimmering effect. It’s water-resistant to 30 bar (300 m) and limited to 1,249 numbered pieces. 

Why 1,249 pieces? That's because the numbers of the finless porpoise have fallen to just this figure, but with the help of the Changjiang Conservation Foundation, Oris hopes to help reverse the status of these magnificent creatures.
