Oris: A Swiss Watchmaker that Continues to Defy Expectations
June 2nd, 2019
Oris has been making watches in the Swiss city of Hölstein since 1904, giving them a history that spans over a hundred years, seven continents, and generations of watch aficionados. Since its origins, Oris has been developing and refining its reputation for artistic excellence, as well as mastery of engineering sciences. The company takes pride in the fact that they’re one of the few remaining Swiss horologists that continue to exclusively manufacture mechanical watches, continuing a tradition that stretches back to the 19th century.
Here at Long Jewelers, we’re pleased to offer timepieces by this incomparable atelier; read on to learn more about this mainstay in the watchmaking community!
The Culture Collection
Oris watch collections are named for the scenarios for which the individual timepieces are designed. So, when you look at the men’s and women’s Culture collection watches, you know you’re admiring a luxury timepiece made to draw every eye in the room. Whether you’re partial to the technological chic of a visible tourbillon, the dazzle of diamonds embedded in the bezel of a watch, or the splash of rose gold on brushed silver, you can be sure that the Culture collection has a power watch for you.
Check out individual subcollections like Artelier and Classic to browse the different styles Oris puts together.
