The Heritage

The Oris Divers Sixty-Five 42 Stainless Steel is a professional dive watch referencing the original 1965 model. It features a 42 mm 316L stainless steel case with unidirectional ceramic bezel and 300 meter water resistance. The Oris 733 caliber, derived from the ETA 2824-2, provides hours, minutes, seconds and date functions. The 21 mm lug width accommodates larger wrists typical of professional divers and ensures compatibility with properly sized straps.

FAQ

What is the exact lug width of the Oris Divers 65 01 733 7720 4055-07 5 21 29FC?

The lug width is precisely 21 millimetres. This measurement represents the distance between the two case lugs where the strap is fitted. It is a specific width reserved for Divers 65 models with 42mm cases and is not compatible with standard 20mm or 22mm straps.

Which strap type is most appropriate for the Divers 65 01 733 7720 4055-07 5 21 29FC?

It depends on your intended use. For daily elegance, we recommend alligator or vegetable-tanned calf leather in burgundy, brown, or black. To preserve its authentic diving vocation, a rubber Tropic strap or canvas NATO ensures practicality and durability in humid environments. A steel deployante offers convenience and modularity.

How do I change the strap on the Oris Divers 65 01 733 7720 4055-07 5 21 29FC without damaging the case?

Use a dedicated spring bar tool: insert the thin tip underneath the spring bar from above, apply downward pressure until the bar emerges from the lower lug. Repeat on the opposite lug. During reassembly, ensure the bar traverses both lugs completely, avoiding excessive pressure that could deform the edges.

Are aftermarket 21mm straps truly compatible with the Divers 65 01 733 7720 4055-07 5 21 29FC?

Yes, completely. All straps with 21mm lug width fit perfectly onto the case lugs. Compatibility is guaranteed by the technical specification, regardless of strap brand. Milano Straps offers handcrafted 21mm straps in Italian leather, rubber, and NATO, selected for construction quality.

How long does a natural leather strap last on the Divers 65?

A high-quality leather strap, under moderate use, lasts 2-4 years. Durability depends on tanning: vegetable tanning ages nobly, enriching colour and patina, but remains more fragile in very humid environments. For frequent wet situations, rubber Tropic or NATO significantly extends the operational lifespan of the strap.
