Oris Redefines ProPilot Calibre 111 with Slimmer 43mm Case

Oris has revived its flagship ProPilot Calibre 111 with a slimmer 43mm case and refined luxury details for 2026. The update makes the manually wound watch a more versatile everyday accessory while preserving its 10-day power reserve and aviation heritage.

The new ProPilot Calibre 111 features a reduced 43mm case diameter and 13.2mm thickness, down from the previous 44mm and 14mm+ profile. This creates a more wearable silhouette with a 51mm lug-to-lug distance. The watch, first introduced in the mid-2010s, stands apart from the ProPilot Date series due to its manually wound movement. Lug spacing is now 20mm for the 43mm model, down from 22mm on the 44mm predecessor.

Enhanced dial and finishing

The dial offers black or pine green options with vertically brushed surfaces, grained textures, and applied Arabic numerals for improved legibility. Applied Arabic numerals with Super-LumiNova increase the luminous surface area. The dial presents a mix of finishes, including a vertically brushed central surface and organic textures around the perimeter and on subdials. Luminous hands provide high legibility alongside central hours and minutes, a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock, and a date display at 6 o’clock. The watch is water-resistant to 100m and features a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating on the inside.

Two distinct dial color options are available, each with specific accent colors.

Functional upgrades and heritage

The watch retains 100m water resistance with a screw-down crown and features a relocated date display at 6 o’clock for better balance. The date function was moved from 9 o’clock for the 2026 model. The visible Calibre 111 movement can be seen through the display caseback. The caseback ring features angled fluting that matches the bezel design.

The movement is the manually wound Oris Calibre 111, originally developed with École Technique Le Locle and introduced in 2015 to mark the brand’s 110th anniversary. It signaled Oris's return to in-house movement production after 35 years. The movement offers a 10-day, or 240-hour, power reserve from a single oversized mainspring, a 3Hz beat rate (21,600 bph), hacking seconds, and contains 40 jewels. It is chronometer certified. A non-linear power reserve indicator is positioned at 3 o’clock.

The collection has evolved from a specialist pilot's watch to a versatile everyday companion. The design includes a slimmed-down case and refined finishing to enhance its luxury appeal compared to the previous 44mm version.

Immediate availability and full warranty

The model is available immediately with no limited edition status. Registration with the MyOris program extends the standard warranty to five years. The watch maintains a 100m water resistance rating. The reference numbers for the models are 01 111 7808 4164 07 6 20 19LC and 01 111 7808 4164 07 8 20 04LC.
