With Oris into the depths...
Already in the 1960s and 1970s, Oris successfully produceddiving watchesSince around 2000, the company has been devoting particular attention to this area again. The development of diving watches is constantly being pushed forward and has made good progress over the last two decades. In 2009, for example, the Rotation Safety System was launched. This allows you to lock the rotating bezel of your watch before a dive so that it cannot be adjusted by accidental contact underwater. Another practical patent for Otis diving watches is the Aquis Depth Gauge, a mechanical depth gauge built into the watch.
... and above the clouds ...
The most famous Oris watch models are the pilot watches from the Big Crown series. The first Big Crown was sold in 1938. It had a particularly large crown, which was supposed to enable pilots to set or wind their watch without having to take off their leather pilot gloves. The success of this model was so great that the Big Crown is still produced in different versions today.
... or to the art exhibition
However, customers who are less enthusiastic about sports also appreciate Oris' luxury watches. There is a separate art collection for them, with the Oris Artillier and Oris Classic models. With these beautiful luxury watches, fans of art and music can also enjoy and own the extraordinary works of art of traditional Swiss watchmaking. Formal and elegant, they are absolutely appropriate at every vernissage and every premiere, but can also be worn on a daily basis in the office.
A piece of Swiss watchmaking history
The history of Oris is closely linked to the history of Swiss watchmaking. The company was founded in 1904 in the small town of Hölstein in northern Switzerland. It was named Oris after a stream that flowed nearby. The watchmaking company initially made pocket watches, but in 1925 it switched to making them wearable as wristwatches. Over time, it expanded its range to include alarm clocks. In 1934, the company suffered a setback due to the Swiss watch statute and then became a pioneer in the fight for its liberalization and eventual abolition in 1971. But by this time, the quartz crisis was already posing a new threat to Otis. After a brief attempt to get into the production of quartz watches like many other companies, Oris returned to its true art in 1982 and has since then only produced mechanical masterpieces of watchmaking.
