Oris is a brand that produces mechanical watches based in the Swiss town of Hölstein since 1904. Today, it is one of only a handful of brands that only makes mechanical watches, a fact that becomes even more remarkable when the average price of an Oris watch is taken into account. The company is independent -in terms of ownership as well as in spirit- which makes Oris able to quickly shift, innovate and explore according to demands and wishes of its customers.
