Oris ProPilot GMT New Model with a Red Gradient Dial
Swiss watch brand Oris announces the return of the ProPilot GMT by introducing a new model with Red gradient dial.
The new Oris ProPilot GMT version features a stealthy grey-PVD-plated stainless steel 41.5 mm case, a second time zone, a pulsometer scale and a punchy gradient red dial.
In 1938, Oris released the Big Crown, a piece with an oversized crown designed for use by gloved airmen that’s been in production ever since. The ProPilot takes the spirit of that model (and its crown) into new territory, mixing materials, finishes and functions to deliver ultra-reliable contemporary pilot’s watches. The ProPilot GMT’s second time zone is indicated by a central hand finished with a red pointer.
The bezel pulsometer scale for measuring heart rates is inspired by relationships Oris has with some of the world’s most pioneering aeromedical organisations.
The matt grey-PVD-plated finish offsets cockpit glare, while bright lume on the hands and applied indices makes them pop against the high-contrast gradient red dial.
The Oris ProPilot GMT watch houses an automatic mechanical movement with a 42-hour power reserve.
Each timepiece comes on a black textile strap with a red leather lining and Oris’s patented ‘Lift’ clasp, inspired by commercial airliner seatbelt buckles.
