ABOUT ORIS WATCHES
For over 100 years, Oris has been making its distinctive brand of quality timepieces and has gone on to become the world's leading manufacturer of purely mechanical watches. Meeting the highest hand made Swiss standard, Oris foregoes the modern tradition of battery-powered watches to produce intricate pieces that run only on mechanical movements.
Recognised by its patented symbol, the visible red rotor that enabled the original advancement from hand winding to automatic movements, Oris has always produced mechanical watches. Each Oris watch has a mechanical movement at its heart, with classy design aesthetics following the rule that form follows function.
Oris' established reputation is based on the complex inner workings of its watches' Swiss craftsmanship, yet the launch of new and successful movements ensures their output remains modern and relevant. Current models combine their pioneering innovation with the latest in first class mechanical automatic movements.
While Oris watches are made for daily use, some designs have been developed in collaboration with figures from the sporting fields of motor racing, diving and aviation. The brand has a long history of sponsoring Formula 1 driving and counts drivers Nico Rosberg and Kazuki Nakajima as Oris ambassadors. Meanwhile, the requirements of professional divers have led to the production of some of Oris' most intelligently crafted yet universally appealing watches; similarly, the needs of aviators have led to a long and distinguished line of pilots' watches.
Oris' connection to culture doesn't end at sport, with the brand dedicating numerous watches to the greats of jazz ever since it sponsored the 1996 London Jazz Festival. A recent example is the 2007 launch of the Dizzy Gillespie limited edition model, a watch that was so inspired by the genre that it featured ‘improvised' numerals.
