Oris

Hölstein, Switzerland

Founded in Hölstein in 1904, Oris is one of the few remaining independent Swiss watch manufacturers today. The brand has consistently focused on mechanical timepieces, eschewing quartz movements completely since the 1980s. At the same time, Oris is actively committed to sustainability, supporting environmental initiatives, particularly those focused on ocean conservation, through dedicated projects and limited editions. Key models include the vintage-inspired Diver’s Sixty-Five dive watch, the modern and highly functional Aquis collection, and the classic Big Crown Pointer Date, defined by its oversized crown and distinctive pointer-date display. With the ProPilot X Calibre 400, Oris showcases its expertise in modern watchmaking with a robust movement offering an extended power reserve and everyday practicality. Oris thus embodies accessible Swiss manufacturing quality with a distinct independent character.
