ORIS – Williams Engine, Date
















ORIS Motor Sport Williams Engine, Date NEW

Power comes to the fore

Oris’s latest Williams watch marries the raw power of Formula 1 with technical watch design


Oris is pleased to introduce to the starting grid the next series made with its long-standing Formula 1 partner Williams. The Oris Williams collection reflects speed, power and technology of Formula 1.

While the new model’s 42mm brushed and polished stainless steel case are retained from the launch collection, its two-piece dial marks a shift in focus. Oris’s designers have evolved the look to make the watch feel even sportier and more technical.

For example, the numerals on the minute track on the inner dial section are arranged horizontally to mimic the instrument panel of a Williams Formula 1 car, rather than on a curve that follows the shape of the case, as is common in watch design. That horizontal theme continues in the two Arabic numerals at 3 and 9 o’clock – the remaining numerals have been removed to give the watch a clean, streamlined look.

The part-skeletonised dial reveals a section of the anthracite automatic movement underneath, so the wearer can look into the watch’s mechanical engine. A milled circular perforation running around the dial enhances the technical feel. The central seconds hand is in Williams blue, as is the date marker below the date window at 6 o’clock, making it easier to pick the date out quickly when glancing at the watch.

The Oris Williams Engine, Date is available with either a rubber strap with folding clasp or a stainless steel bracelet. The case back of the Oris Williams Engine, Date reveals Oris’s Calibre 733 and its distinctive red rotor.

Oris and Williams have enjoyed an enormously fruitful partnership since 2003. The relationship has spawned a series of sporty, technical, memorable watches that bring the power, glamour and focus on design of Formula 1 into a contemporary watch collection. The Oris Williams Engine, Date moves the collection up a gear.

Following on from OMEGA’s proud history of Olympic Timekeeping, the renowned Swiss watch brand is already looking forward to continuing their illustrious role at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018. To celebrate the “two year” countdown, a highly-collectable watch has been crafted with several unique details.

The OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra “PyeongChang 2018Limited Edition is a timepiece that captures all the original innovation and beauty of the current Aqua Terra 150M collection. However, for this model, the additional focus is firmly on the momentous sporting event.

THE DIAL
The first noticeable difference is the addition of the event name. Using the five colours of the iconic Olympic Rings, the words “PYEONGCHANG 2018 have been inscribed on the minute track of the popular blue PVD dial.
Incredibly, the 20 and the 18 are perfectly aligned with the exact minute indexes. This is a very unique coincidence that cannot be repeated in our lifetime.

THE CASE
The transparent sapphire crystal caseback includes the official “Olympic Games PyeongChang 2018 logo. On the side of the case, the limited edition number has been engraved. This will be one of only 2018 limited edition numbers made available.

DESIGN AND INNOVATION
The 41mm timepiece, including the case and the metal bracelet, has been created in stainless steel. The typical “teak concept” pattern of the Aqua Terra dial is included and, at its heart, the watch is powered by the Master Co-Axial movement 8500.
