BaselWorld 2010: Oris Col Moschin Limited Edition Watch
February 24th, 2010  Posted at   Baselworld 2010, Oris
9th Parachutist Assault Regiment, Baselworld 2010, Col Moschin, Oris, Reggimento d'Assalto Paracadutisti   |   No Comments



To pay homage to the Italian 9th Reggimento d’Assalto Paracadutisti (9th Parachutist Assault Regiment), Oris has released its “Col Moschin” Limited Edition watch. Only 2000 pieces are made available for this model.



The 9th Parachutist Assault Regiment Seal

The company validates its worthiness by having the watch field tested by the Col Moschin, the most elite unit of the Italian Army. “Field tested” means the Col Moschin special forces wore the watch on jumps from 9,000 meters and on dives down to 40 meters, and in some other extreme environments. It proved that the watch is a reliable Special forces watch.



To match military spirit, the watch employs a very striking 49mm case coated with “gun metal grey” PVD. Although massive just like it looks, the case is probably much lighter than you might think, since it is in titanium and mounted on a rubber strap. Also adding to its manly appeal is its thick, brush-finish bezel that looks very tough. The power reserve is done in the Italian colors of red, white and green, to make clear what country’s elite special forces this watch is inspired by.



The overall design of the new watch may remind you of the Oris ProDiver Chronograph, a slightly larger (51mm case) introduced by Oris last year. However, this “Col Moschin” Limited Edition watch is even more to my taste, because it seems like a perfect Special Forces gear.

the use of case materials and finishes is pretty cool while keeping the overall look very toolish yet simple....the power reserve complication is one of my favorites on a watch and the new ratcheting dive buckles!!drool.gif

Saw this one a few weeks ago when it first was shown.

Does anyone know what the "Force" meter is for?

I believe the "Force" meter is just a numerical representation of the Power Reserve which is shown with the colors of the Italian Flag on the other side of the indicator. 

I'm seeing 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 gradations showing on the "Force" dial (and since I don't see any reference to the Jedi Council on this particular piece, I'm going with my first guess on this one).
