Kermit Kermit ProPilot Oris Propilot X Authored By William DePaula

The CollaborationThe first function of every Oris watch, in the purest emotional, feel-it-in-yourbones sense, is to bring joy, to make people smile. For some time, we’ve been trying to find the ultimate expression of this and to make a watch that’s pure joy. And then it hit us.
