Swiss watchmakers Oris are revolutionising the wrists of F1 speedsters and deep-sea divers alike.
Since 1904, Oris have traditionally produced mechanical-only watches, so gorgeous in their complexity that the distinctive clear-case back holds as much allure as the beautifully-crafted faces. The luxury timepieces from this year’s collection exude the same class associated with the company throughout their century-long history.
With just 2,000 available worldwide, the Carlos Coste Chronograph Limited Edition is a pearl at the bottom of the ocean. Oris is the official sponsor of word record holding free-diver Carlos Coste and this signature piece is water resistant to 1000m. It features orange detailing (the last colour in the spectrum visible in deep water), and a helium valve essential to withstand deep-sea pressures.
The new TT3 Chronograph has been about the only thing able to keep time with the red-hot F1 scene lately. As the official watch sponsor of the Williams F1 team, it’s Oris’ latest top-notch Motor Sport piece. With a design inspired by the car it features a titanium casing as used on the engine, a carbon fibre dial and a flexible, durable rubber strap - a la the tyres. It’s also water resistant to 100m, plenty enough to cope with the odd post-race champagne dousing.
The sleek Artelier Skeleton is the first in the classic Artelier collection to showcase a skeleton design, showcasing the distinctive eye-catching Oris mechanics transparently through the face and back. Add into the mix the exquisite Louis XIV decorative engraving and the silver patterned dial ring and you have a combination of sexy aesthetics more interesting to look at than the time itself.
Within four main families; Motor Sport, Diving, Aviation and Culture, every Oris timepiece features a distinctive red rotor and a clear case back making visible the complex mechanics of the timepieces
