The Oris Pro Pilot Date watch, with its redesigned case, upgraded details, and hidden functions, is the perfect timepiece for everyday adventures. How to elevate a great watch to the next level? Since its debut as a professional timepiece in 2014, the ProPilot collection has become a core element of Oris's product line. It naturally embodies many of the brand's milestone innovations, such as the groundbreaking altimeter and the world's first carbon fiber case crafted using a highly efficient additive manufacturing process.
Case Details Upgraded: The 41mm case is a refined evolution of the original, with sharper, more compact lines giving the pilot's watch a more dynamic silhouette. Satin-brushed and polished finishes further enhance the overall texture, presenting a variety of lusters. The iconic coin-edge bezel design is retained, continuing its visual association with modern jet engines.
Ergonomics are equally important: The new case offers comfortable wear and is available with a new metal bracelet or suede strap. The iconic large crown has also been improved for enhanced practicality, revealing the meticulous craftsmanship beneath its rugged exterior.
The dial has also been refreshed: the textured dial (available in black, light gray, and turquoise) draws inspiration from natural materials, while the new bezel design features three-dimensional, brushed Arabic numerals. The luminous hands have also been redesigned, achieving harmony in clarity, balance, and aesthetics.
Finally, a visual innovation: the iconic "LIFT" clasp has been beveled to echo the new case design. The suede strap version features a seamless, holeless adjustment system, achieving a precise fit without traditional holes, and together with the new clasp, enhances wearing comfort.

Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon With Red Second Hand
In 2013, Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon was launched and became a huge success as the first all-ceramic chronograph in Speedmaster history! However, more than a decade later, Omega finally gave the Dark Side of the Moon a complete update at the end of last year. The best Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon replica watches at captainthewatch.is.
Omega's original "Dark Side of the Moon" watch was powered by the 9300 movement. Launched in 2011, this new generation of automatic chronograph movement was developed specifically based on Omega's exclusive Co-Axial escapement. It featured a silicon hairspring, vertical clutch, column wheel, and a practical quick-set time zone function. This year's four new Dark Side of the Moon models include two automatic chronographs that upgrade the 9300 movement to the Master Chronometer 9900 movement, a Moon Grey model using the 3869 movement, and a Dark Side of the Moon model using a manual-winding 9-series movement.
Currently, all Omega men's automatic chronographs are around 15mm thick, especially the older automatic Die Dark Moon model, which reached a thickness of 16.14mm. Frankly, this thickness is somewhat burdensome for everyday wear. Therefore, Omega has not only reduced the thickness of the automatic Die Dark Moon to 15.09mm, but also made the manual-winding red-hand version only 13.02mm thick. This 13mm thickness not only makes it comfortable for everyday wear, but also makes it the thinnest Speedmaster Ceramic watch with the 9-series movement. In terms of aesthetics, the black ceramic case, with its satin-brushed and mirror-polished finish, has a warm and lustrous sheen, like black onyx. The striking red central chronograph seconds hand is like a red lightning bolt illuminating the dark universe. This red is not the bright red often used in Speedmasters, but a more subdued rouge red, so the red and black color scheme doesn't clash, but rather achieves an elegant and harmonious look.The 9908 movement used in this watch, as the manual-winding black version of the 9900 movement, naturally inherits all the advantages of the 9900 movement except for the automatic version, such as Omega's exclusive Co-Axial silicon escapement, quick-set time zone, and Arabic-style Geneva stripes decoration. In terms of performance, its certification level naturally reaches the highest level of Master Chronometer standard. In addition to being able to withstand strong magnetic fields of up to 15,000 gauss, the timekeeping error has also been improved to 0 to 5 seconds per day, and it also has the same 60-hour power reserve as the automatic movement. What surprised me most was that after the matte black finish, this movement became so cool and futuristic, as if it were a brand new movement. Although the list price of this manual red hand 115500 is exactly the same as that of the automatic all-black Moon Dark Side, it is obvious that this red hand version is more attractive.
