Oris Watches

Oris is an independent Swiss mechanical watch company based in Hölstein, where it has been making watches since 1904. That history gives the brand a clear sense of place, while its mechanical identity keeps the focus on the feeling and craft of traditional watchmaking. For the wearer, Oris brings a confident wrist presence with character that can sit naturally within everyday style or a more considered look.

Oris Mechanical Watchmaking

Oris gives mechanical watchmaking a clear identity rooted in Hölstein. The company describes itself as independent and Swiss, and its philosophy is centred on making mechanical watches alone. Founded in 1904, Oris connects a long watchmaking tradition with an openness to new ideas.

Character on the Wrist

The appeal also comes from the pleasure of a watch with a clear sense of purpose, considered detail and a character that feels personal on the wrist. That character can sit naturally with everyday clothing while still bringing a more distinctive note to an outfit. The brand story rests on mechanical craft, place and lasting character.
