Smooth sailing
MENTION the name Oris and mechanical masterpieces that celebrate speed and the deep blue sea come to mind.
Dedicated to supporting the precision sport of motor racing for over 40 years, Oris presents the new Darryl O’Young Limited Edition in honour of the GT track legend.
A racing enthusiast since childhood, Hong Kong based driver Darryl O’Young successfully rose through the ranks to become one of the most decorated and celebrated GT drivers of all time. A must-have collectors’ piece for fans of the race car driver and motor sports enthusiasts alike, the Oris Darryl O’Young Limited Edition is the perfect tribute to the man who has driven Asian motor sport into the fast lane.
In support of the Red Sea Environmental Centre’s work to protect one of the world’s top diving sites, the Swiss watch manufacturer unveils the new Aquis Red Limited Edition.
Dedicated to the organisations’ important work, the Aquis case is revamped with striking red accents. Combating the wetsuit compression, caused by the underwater pressure and the need for adjustments when below the surface, Oris’ safe anchor and sliding sledge clasp keep the watch safely attached to the wrist while being easily modified at all times. Equipped with a stainless steel case and a unidirectional revolving top ring with black ceramic divers inlay, the timepiece is ready to experience the toughest dives all over the world.
Dedicated to innovation and quality watchmaking, the newest addition to the Artix family – the Oris Artix Pointer Moon, is a classic timepiece that precisely displays the lunar cycle by means of a pointer hand. Restyled into a slimmer and more elegant model, the timepiece features an additional chamfer along its horns.
The brand’s latest incarnation, however, is the covetable Big Crown Timer Chronograph.
An updated classic with definitive new features, the Big Crown’s signature aesthetic remains while its masculinity is refined with a more pronounced main body and streamlined, shortened horns. PVD plated with a gunmetal colouring, its stylish black dial face houses both day and date functions, and all its numbers and indices have been coated with a SuperLumiNova inlay to ensure optimum visibility in all lighting conditions.
And back to speed, to celebrate the accomplishment of the WilliamsF1 Team, there is the Oris WilliamsF1 Team 600th Race Edition. Inspired by the high-tech cars of Formula One, the new chronograph is intrinsically linked to motorsport.
Featuring a multipiece stainless steel case, the timepiece has a tachymeter as top ring coated in black DLC. The minute recorder at 12 o’clock and the hour recorder at 6 o’clock, along with the date window at 6 o’clock, also illustrate its sporting pedigree.
For Oris watch owners who want their watches checked, the Oris technicians will be on standby on Aug 23-24 (12.00pm to 9.00pm) .
