Swiss watch brand Oris presents a new Big Crown model with the newly launched in-house hand-wound movement, the Calibre 473. This also represents a historical milestone as the Oris Movement Creation Programme enters its tenth year.

The new Big Crown watch has a 38mm diameter case made of stainless steel. The blue dial features luminescent numerals and hands for hour and minutes, small seconds counter at 6 o’clock, and an additional central hand for displaying the date.

The Oris Movement Creation Programme was started in the late 2000s to revive the in-house movement production that had been dormant since the Quartz Crisis of the 1970s.

Since 1904, Oris had created more than 270 unique calibres. In 2014, Oris returned to movement creation with Calibre 110, the first of the Calibre 100 Series of hand-wound movements. They offer 10-day power reserve from a single barrel, patented non-linear power reserve indicators, and often additional useful functions, such as a business calendar or a second time zone.

In 2020, Oris launched the Calibre 400 Series, the company’s first in-house developed line of automatics in more than 40 years. These featured five-day power reserves, elevated levels of anti-magnetism, 10-year warranties and 10-year recommended service intervals.

And now, in the tenth year of the revived Oris Movement Creation Programme, Oris presents a new high-performance hand-wound movement: Calibre 473.

The Big Crown Pointer Date is an Oris collection mainstay since 1938. For the first time in decades, it has a hand-wound in-house Oris calibre inside it, Calibre 473.

The Calibre 473 is built on the same base as the Oris Calibre 403 automatic. So it has hour, minute, small seconds and pointer date hands, and a five-day power reserve, now shown by a 120-hour power reserve indicator on the back of the movement. Calibre 473 took four years to develop. The power reserve indicator is visible through the watch’s sapphire case back.

As with Calibre 400 Series movements, Calibre 473 also has elevated levels of anti-magnetism, and each watch powered by it will come with a 10-year warranty and 10-year recommended service intervals.

The Oris Big Crown Calibre 473 is fitted on an olive brown strap made by Swiss partner Cervo Volante.

For this strap, Oris has developed a sophisticated new stainless steel butterfly folding clasp with a fine adjustment system. It allows you to adjust the strap as your wrist expands and contracts, which happens as environmental conditions change.

Swiss watch brand Oris has launched a special edition to mark its partnership with aerial firefighters Coulson Aviation.

Coulson Aviation is the world’s leading aerial firefighting organisation. Based in Canada, the family-run independent company sends pilots, planes and equipment to areas of the world affected by wildfires.

To mark the partnership between Oris and Coulson Aviation, Oris has created a watch based on the Big Crown ProPilot and inspired by the innovation and daring spirit of the two independent companies.

The most striking feature of this timepiece is its fiery, gradient orange dial, a clear symbol of the perilous environments Coulson’s brave pilots rush towards while most are obliged to turn away. The carbon fibre case was produced using an innovative, patented 3D printing process never seen before in watchmaking.

Devised by Switzerland’s prestigious ETH Zurich University (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), it prints carbon fibre and a high-grade polymer developed in aerospace called PEKK simultaneously, weaving them together to create an ultra-lightweight, extremely rigid material.

Completing the high-tech, lightweight profile is a grey-PVD-plated titanium fixed bezel, screw-down crown and case back, and a black textile strap. The watch, movement included, weighs just 65 grammes.

Each timepiece from this collection houses a highly anti-magnetic five-day automatic Calibre 400. This special series from the Oris Aviation family is limited to 1,000 pieces.

Swiss luxury watch brand Oris has created a 1,000-piece edition celebrating the historic Waldenburgerbahn railway line.

The Waldenburgerbahn (WB) is a low-cost rail network opened in 1880 that linked the Waldenburg valley. Marking the WB’s recent upgrade, Oris is introducing the Waldenburgerbahn Limited Edition based on the iconic Big Crown Pointer Date watch.

The Waldenburgerbahn watch has a 40mm stainless steel case and fluted bezel, and a domed sapphire crystal. This model comes with a black dial decorated with large, lumed Arabic numerals and a railway-track minute scale.

It’s powered by Oris Calibre 754, which drives the signature Pointer Date function, whereby a central, red-tipped hand points to a date scale running around the edge of the dial. It’s finished on a dark brown strap made of sustainable deer leather supplied by Cervo Volante.

The engraved case back shows the old Waldenburgerbahn steam locomotive and the limited-edition number.

Oris has announced the release of the Herzog Loibner Edition, a 250-piece limited-edition watch produced in collaboration with Herzog Loibner Fine Jewelry, Liechtenstein.

This first-generation family jewellery house was founded by Bianca Herzog and Susanne Loibner. Herzog Loibner’s creations are recognised around the world for their colourful, expressive and yet natural use of gemstones. In partnership, Oris and Herzog Loibner have conceived a special Divers Sixty-Five watch.

The 36mm diameter case is made of solid, naturally ageing bronze. The gradient brown dial complements the bronze case and bezel. A ring of black diamonds is set into the bezel. The 50 brilliant-cut diamonds are totaling around 1.5 carats.

The watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement that gives it hour, minutes, central seconds and date functions, all operated via a bronze screw-in security crown that ensures water resistance to 10 bar (100 metres).

This special edition Divers Sixty-Five watch has a stainless steel case back engraved with Herzog Loibner’s signature ‘Aldusblatt’ – a heart-shaped Aldus leaf that serves as a symbol of love and friendship – and the watch’s limited-edition number.

The Oris Herzog Loibner watch is fitted with a black soft leather strap with a bronze buckle.

Oris has announced a partnership with the pioneering aeronautical humanitarian organisation Wings of Hope. To mark this collaboration, the Swiss watch manufacturer has released two limited- edition wristwatches powered by Calibre 401.

Wings of Hope is a US-based aeronautical humanitarian organisation founded 60 years ago. Twice nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, Wings of Hope has used the power of aviation to bring medical support to remote and vulnerable communities in more than 50 countries. In 2021, more than 65,000 people used the organisation’s programmes and services.

The Oris Wings of Hope Limited Edition watches are based on the Swiss brand’s iconic Big Crown pilot’s watch. Two models are available, one in stainless steel and the second watch in 18ct yellow gold.

Limited to 1,000 pieces, the stainless steel Wings of Hope watch comes with a 40 mm diameter case. Limited to 100 pieces, the 18-carat yellow gold variant features a 38mm case. Its case, crown and case back are all solid gold. Both models spotlight off-white dial.

The dial features Arabic numeral hour-markers, two centre hands for indicating the hour and minutes, black minute track and small seconds.

The hour-markers are applied with Super-LumiNova® material in mint green color for the stainless steel model and in golden beige for the 18-carat yellow gold Wings of Hope watch. Featuring the identical color of the case, the hour and minute hands are also treated with Super-LumiNova®. The small seconds hand is in red color.

Oris has equipped the Big Crown Wings of Hope watches with Calibre 401, the in-house developed mechanical self-winding with a power reserve of five days. The mechanism of the watch is visible through the exhibition case-back.

Both timepieces come on sustainable deer leather straps manufactured by Swiss company Cervo Volante. Fitted with a screw-in crown, sapphire crystal glass and screwed case-back, the watch is water resistant to 50 meters.

The suggested retail price of the Oris Big Crown Wings of Hope Steel watch is CHF 3,300 (appx. US$ 3,430/-). The cost of 18K yellow gold version is CHF 15,500 (appx. US$ 16,118/-).

Swiss watch brand Oris celebrates its birthday on 1st June by releasing the Hölstein Edition 2022, a limited series Worldtimer watch based on the ‘Full Steel’ of the late 1990s and powered by the iconic Oris’s Calibre 690.

Oris was founded on first June in 1904 in the Swiss village of Hölstein. The company is still based at this serene location, surrounded by the Waldenburg Valley.

The watch celebrating the Swiss brand’s 118th birthday is inspired by the Full Steel Worldtimer, a stainless steel sports watch introduced in 1998 that picked up on an extraordinary movement Oris had debuted a year before.

Known as the Worldtimer, Oris Calibre 690 was a world first. Using plus and minus buttons on the case flanks, it could adjust local time in one-hour jumps either forwards or backwards, with home time shown on a counter at 3 o’clock. Even more impressively, as the time moved past midnight in either direction, the date would change, too.

The Hölstein Edition 2022, limited to 250 pieces, is a faithful revival of this Oris icon. It has a 36.5mm stainless steel case, a three- link stainless steel bracelet and a blue dial with the famous red plus and minus symbols. The screwed, steel case-back features special engravings. Each watch is delivered in a special wooden presentation box.

Just like its ancestor, this new anniversary watch is powered by the self-winding Oris Calibre 690, which provides an approximate power reserve of 38 hours.

Oris has released the new ProPilot X Calibre 400, a titanium watch inspired by more than a century of aviation heritage of the brand. This new 39mm watch is equipped with Calibre 400, the in-house developed self-winding movement with five days power reserve and excellent antimagnetic features.

The taut, angular lines of the aviation-inspired form are satin and sandblasted, giving the watch its raw, technical look, and complemented by the familiar ProPilot bezel and a muscular, sculpted titanium bracelet. The oversized crown is also titanium, and flanked by protectors. This new timepiece is available in a choice of three dial colours: grey, blue and salmon.

The watch’s titanium case back and open sapphire crystal frame Oris Calibre 400. As with all Calibre 400 Series movements, it’s accurate to -3 to +5 seconds a day, within chronometer certification standards. This base calibre version has a sweep central seconds hand and a date at 6 o’clock.

All Calibre 400 Series watches carry 10 year warranties and 10-year recommended service intervals, and that applies to the ProPilot X Calibre 400, too. Calibre 400 Series movements have more than 30 non-ferrous and anti-magnetic parts, and were developed to minimise friction and wear-and-tear.

ORIS presents a special series of its Big Crown Pointer Date watch in collaboration with the Swiss sustainable deer leather manufacturer Cervo Volante. This series proudly reflects the Swiss watch company’s commitment towards environment protection.

Every year, around 15,000 wild red deer are culled in Switzerland. The operation is entirely legal and necessary, highly regulated, and undertaken to manage deer populations and protect the Swiss countryside.

In 2017, friends Kadri Vunder Fontana, a biotechnology engineer and experienced businesswoman, and Conny Thiel-Egenter, a biologist specialising in nature protection and wildlife and habitat management, founded Cervo Volante. Their vision was to take the waste, specifically deer skins, and transform them into beautiful, hard-wearing and ultimately sustainable footwear and accessories.

Passionate about nature and driven by a desire to make eco-friendly, sustainable shoes and accessories from wild leather, Cervo Volante has also employed Switzerland’s last two remaining tanneries, both of which use 100 per cent vegetable tanning processes.

Recently, Cervo Volante has partnered with Oris for a collaborative project on a sustainable deer leather strap project. Oris has been active in various environment protection activities since long time. This new partnership is a part of the Swiss brand’s much acclaimed Change for the Better campaign.

The Oris x Cervo Volante collaboration begins with three Big Crown Pointer Date watches fitted with deer-leather straps that are allergy free, sustainable and unique. This trio of watches features colourful dials inspired by the Alps, and straps, pouches and card holders produced from Cervo Volante sustainable deer leather.

The Big Crown Pointer Date watch features a 38mm diameter stainless steel case with sapphire crystals on the front and back. It houses an automatic movement with 38 hours power reserve.

The Oris Rectangular watch returns to the fore with new proportions, a new dial design, and vivacious dial and leather strap options to fit every season.

The Rectangular’s classic, dressy, unisex form is defined by its four-sided stainless steel case and integrated straps. Note the steps on the case flanks that amplify its presence, and the tapering of the lug tips that at the same time ensure it sits calmly and naturally on the wrist.

The dials come in white, blue, anthracite and Bordeaux with a design heavily influenced by the Art Deco style. Rail tracks run around both the outer edge of the dial and on an inner rectangle that reflects and complements the case silhouette. Numerals at 12, 9 and 3 play with symmetry and asymmetry, while sword-shaped hands and a date window at 6 o’clock complete the layout.

Each reference is fitted with a quick change leather strap in yellow, blue, anthracite or Bordeaux. Inside each is Oris Calibre 561, a Swiss Made automatic mechanical time-and-date movement, visible through a mineral glass case back.

The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date has been the iconic Swiss watch brand’s signature design since it was introduced in 1938. For the first time, it’s now equipped with a new 400 series in-house automatic movement with superior anti-magnetism, a five-day power reserve and a 10-year warranty.

Introduced in 1938, the Big Crown Pointer Date has been in constant production for more than 80 years. The original had two distinctive features – an oversized crown so the watch could be operated by gloved airmen, and a central hand that pointed to a date scale around the edge of the dial.

Now, the Big Crown Pointer Date 38 mm model features Calibre 403, one of the Oris Calibre 400 Series of high-performance in-house engineered automatics. First appeared in the 250-piece Hölstein Edition 2021, Calibre 403 incorporates small seconds and pointer date complications.

As with every movement in the Calibre 400 Series, Calibre 403 has elevated levels of anti-magnetism, a five-day power reserve and a 10-year warranty. It’s also accurate to -3/+5 seconds a day – which would comfortably pass chronometer testing – and has 10-year recommended service intervals.

The Oris Calibre 400 Series is designed to suit modern lifestyles. Calibre 400 is the base automatic with three hands and a date; Calibre 401 adds a small seconds; and Calibre 403 revives the Swiss brand’s signature combination of complications, a small seconds and a pointer date.

This stainless steel timepiece is topped with a sapphire crystal glass, domed on both sides. The sapphire crystal case-back of the watch affords the view of the in-house mechanical self-winding movement. The watch has a water resistance of 50 meters.

The Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 features an attractive blue dial with printed indices and numbers.

Oris has expanded its Divers Sixty-Five by adding a new model with a grey gradient dial.

The Divers Sixty-Five is a retro-styled timepiece inspired from the independent Swiss brand’s first diver’s watch, created in 1965. The new iteration with grey gradient dial stands out because of the high-contrast turquoise lume applied to the watch’s hands, hour markers and triangle dot at 12 o’clock.

This glows a bright turquoise green in low light conditions such as those found underwater, but even in daylight, the contrasts in the materials and colours give extraordinary clarity to the dial.

The instantly recognizable 40mm stainless steel case is equipped with a unidirectional rotating bezel. Secured with a screw-in security crown, screwed-stainless steel case-back and domed sapphire crystal front glass, this new model has a water resistance of 10 bar/100 metres.

Inside beats a Swiss Made automatic mechanical movement, which provides a power reserve of 38 hours when fully wound.

The Oris Divers Sixty-Five Glow watch comes on a black leather strap or a stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp.

Swiss watchmaker Oris has released an exceptional series of 21 limited-edition watches built to the specifications of the iconic Swiss Air-Rescue Rega.

Back in 2016, Oris entered into a partnership with Swiss Air-Rescue Rega, which has been offering aero-medical services for almost seven decades and is recognised worldwide for its excellence and professionalism. Oris created a watch for Rega that year and again in 2018.

Now, the brand has launched the third collaborative collection. It consists of 21 limited edition watches symbolizing the number of aircrafts in Rega’s fleet. Only 100 of each timepiece will be made. Total number of watches in this collection will be 2,100.

Rega, one of Switzerland’s proudest and most trusted organisations, was founded in 1952. It’s now patronised by almost half the Swiss population, and is among the world’s most recognisable air rescue services, symbolised by its iconic red helicopters and crew members in their red uniforms. Today, it serves as an integral part of the Swiss healthcare system, with 13 helicopter bases and a fleet of state-of-the-art aircraft.

From these bases, Rega operates 18 rescue helicopters and can reach anywhere in the area it covers within 15 minutes of an emergency call. Each base has a crew of pilot, paramedic and emergency flight physician ready to go, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. While it’s famous for its high-altitude mountain rescues, Rega’s service covers all medical emergencies, from road accidents to sudden illness.

During the pandemic, the organisation’s role has become even more significant. In 2020, it organised more than 16,000 missions and brought medical assistance by air to 11,000 people in distress. Thanks to previous investments made in patient isolation units, it also repatriated 140 Covid-19 patients on board its ambulance jets.

To this day, Rega remains a privately run, non-profit organisation funded by a patronage system, whereby private individuals make regular contributions to the running of the service.

Rega operates 18 rescue helicopters and three fixed-wing aircraft as follows:

• 7 Airbus H145 Helicopters for versatile operations across Switzerland.
• 11 AgustaWestland Da Vinci Helicopters for mountain operations.
• 3 Bombardier Challenger 650 jets for repatriation flights, worldwide.

Each of these 21 aircrafts has been identified by their registrations. Oris pays tribute to its partner Rega by introducing 21 limited-edition watches, each a series of 100 pieces carrying a case back engraved with one of the service’s 21 aircraft.

The design of the Oris Big Crown ProPilot Rega Fleet L.E. was specified by Rega crew. They suggested the need of a robust, accurate and reliable wristwatch featuring clean, ultra-legible dials. In addition, the crew demanded the GMT function for recording logbook times and a pulsometer scale that could serve as back-up to electronic machines that measure patients’ heart rates.

Its black dial has high-contrast white hands and numerals filled with high grade Super-LumiNova®. Its stainless steel case and Oris-patented ‘Lift’ clasp are coated in anti-reflective gunmetal grey PVD. It has a clearly indicated second time zone.

And engraved into its bi-directional rotating bezel are a red triangle for timing the “golden hour” (the first hour after injury during which a patient’s chances of recovery are highest), and a pulsometer scale, read off with a white-tipped central seconds hand. The added leather and rubber straps with a quick change system.

One pilot suggested to link watches to individual aircraft to reflect the close bond crews and patients often develop with them. So Oris created 21 different case backs, each engraved with the outline of a Rega aircraft and its registrations.

For these special watches, Oris also created a water-resistant red Ventile® pouch, complete with a second quick-change strap in hygienic, easy-clean red rubber and a tool for changing the clasp.

The pouch has a number of elastic straps for tweezers, plasters and bandages so it can be upgraded to a pocket first aid kit.

Swiss luxury watch brand Oris has created a limited-edition Big Crown ProPilot watch to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Botswana’s aeromedical rescue organisation Okavango Air Rescue.

Okavango Air Rescue (O.A.R.) was founded by Swiss entrepreneur Christian Gross and German-born Dr Misha S. Kruck in 2011. Since then, this aeromedical rescue organisation has been operating in Botswana, a sparsely populated country with lots of remote communities.

Christian was a conservationist as well as a businessman, and had already established environmental organisations such as Animal Management Consultancy and the Breeding Centre for Endangered Arabian Wildlife. Misha had vast medical experience and had worked all over the world, including during stints at International Red Cross and Rega, the Swiss air rescue service.

They moved to Botswana in 2011 and set up O.A.R., a privately-owned and independently funded service that operates helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, as well as a polyclinic, to bring quality medical care to locals and tourists visiting the country.

Oris has recently announced a partnership with O.A.R., and a new watch made to celebrate the service’s 10th anniversary.

The Okavango Air Rescue Limited Edition watch is based on the Oris Big Crown ProPilot. Its green dial is inspired by the grasses of the Okavango Delta, and it comes on an exclusive green fabric strap created by Erika’s Originals.

The watch is also supplied with an additional brown leather strap. Dressed in a 41mm diameter stainless steel case, the watch houses a Swiss made automatic movement with 38 hours power reserve.

It has two large baton-style hands for displaying hour and minutes. Its black centre seconds hand features red-colouring on the tip.  The indices are also embedded with Super-LumiNova®. The dial also has a date window at 3 o’ clock.

On the stainless steel case-back, the Okavango Air Rescue Limited Edition watch features special engravings.

Limited to 2,011 pieces to mark the founding year of the Okavango Air Rescue Service, each timepiece will be delivered in a leather travel pouch.

About Okavango Delta

Botswana’s Okavango Delta is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa, covers a flat area of more than 20,000km2, and in 2014, it became the 1,000th site to be inscribed onto the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The delta, which is made up of grasslands, marshes, lagoons and thousands of islands, is produced by seasonal flooding, peaking between June and August, Botswana’s dry winter months. During this period, it swells to three times its normal size, causing one of Africa’s greatest concentrations of wildlife.

Botswana is home to the ‘Big Five’ game animals: the lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhinoceros. Together with giraffe, hippos, cheetah, crocodiles and many other species, they make the Okavango Delta one of Africa’s most popular tourist destinations. Almost as diverse is the human population, which is made up of five ethnic groups, each of which has its own language. In the main, their livelihood comes from the delta.

Until the Okavango Air Rescue (O.A.R.) was established in 2011, local people and tourists requiring medical evacuation from remote areas had to wait for aircraft to arrive from neighbouring South Africa.

Today, O.A.R. covers the delta area and the Southern African continent, flying two PC-12 fixed-wing aircraft and two Bell Jetranger 206 III helicopters. Visitors to the country are encouraged to take up a ‘patronage’, a contribution that helps the organisation continue its mission.

O.A.R. asks for a minimum of 150 pula, around US$15, an annual figure that’s roughly equivalent to buying a can of Coke once a month. The successful system was developed by Switzerland’s Rega air rescue service.

In an emergency, O.A.R. will send a medically equipped helicopter and an emergency doctor to rescue patrons – and non-patrons. Any charges are considered later, usually through an insurance company. If those rescued don’t have insurance and can’t afford to pay, O.A.R. waives the cost.

On 1st June this year, Oris introduced the Hölstein Edition 2021, a 250-piece limited-edition version of the Big Crown pilot’s watch. Dressed in a 38mm stainless steel case, it is the first watch to house the in-house developed Oris Calibre 403, a new automatic from the Calibre 400 Series.

The Big Crown is Oris’s signature design. It’s been in the collection, in constant production, since 1938 when it was introduced as a tool for gloved airmen. It was named after its oversized crown, and designed to be easy to operate during flight.

The Hölstein Edition 2021 is based on the Big Crown and powered by Oris Calibre 403. Its stand-out function was a pointer date, a central hand that pointed to a date scale running round the edge of the dial.

The Hölstein Edition 2021 brings this story up to date with a special case inspired by the pre-war original. For this model, Oris has stripped back the fluted bezel and domed crystal; in their place are a flat bezel and sharper, crisper lines. The grey palette reflects the industrial methods Oris pioneered in the first half of the 20th century, while the newly developed numerals are based on references from the Oris archive.

Inside it is Oris Calibre 403, which shares the same base architecture and same high performance as our in-house Calibre 400 automatic – a five-day power reserve, elevated levels of anti-magnetism and a 10-year warranty. Added to these features are a small seconds at 6 o’clock and the famous pointer date function. It’s a class-leading movement created for the modern world, telling a much-loved story.

It’s also the first 38mm Big Crown this century, and each piece has the Oris Bear on the case back with its limited-edition number.
