Tried on a few Oris divers today

Disappointed with all of them 
Didn't like the feel of the titanium ones, too light and made them feel flimsy and, despite being well built, a bit cheap. Had my eye on the Titan Date 1000m but just wasn't doing it for me. Small seconds model on a bracelet did feel very heavy, as per the heaviest watch thread, but beyond the weight for some reason the construction made it feel a bit uncomfortable. Only one that I got on with was the Meistertaucher - surprised because it's 49mm and I wasn't keen on it in the pictures but in the metal it's pretty nice. Looks very distinctive, wears smaller than it is and it's the only one that was made of titanium but still felt pretty substantial, thanks to its size. But still not tugging at the heart strings - ah well, back to the drawing board...
