Looks like a nice piece.

I made an enquiry at Friends of Oris (Authorised Online Oris dealer, based here is Australia) and they said they don't have an ETA on these yet (shouldn't be too far away though), and the price is RRP $2300, but they will do it for $1700 $AUD
That's a good price. I'll definitely be adding one to the Oris collection.

Whoooop here it is...BTW, Oris did a branded reproduction of the swiss tropic straight end strap with the later buckle signed (not the earlier INOX/ACER Loop like you see on my NOS swiss tropic, very faithful recreation of the original tropic straight end and of a softer more comfortable material, in short, oris KILLED IT on the tropic strap.)

I thought these were $1800 U.S. MSRP. I'd expect a street price around $1200-1300.

That's just a great looking watch you have there. Always respected Oris, but none of their contemporary dive watches really did much for me (not that I dislike them), but this…

I think that's going to look great on just about any strap or mesh type bracelet.

i like a lot of the design elements and the size is right too, but something is off with the date placement.

maybe i change my mind once someone posts a pic or two. i doubt it...

frankly, i've not bought anything since the pelagos because there's nothing out there that grabs me.

So much goodness. When this hits $1K on the used market, I'm going to have trouble resisting.
