ORIS - Real watches for real people

The Swiss watch brand Oris looks back on a long and eventful history. Founded in 1904, the company has developed into an established name within the independent Swiss watch industry over more than a century. Since the management buyout in 1982, the brand has been owned by members of the board of directors and senior management – a clear commitment to independence, continuity, and long-term thinking.

 

Back in 1985, long before the renewed global interest in mechanical watches, Oris made a groundbreaking decision: to focus exclusively on the development and manufacture of mechanical timepieces. This consistent focus continues to shape the brand's identity to this day. Mechanics are not seen as a nostalgic concept, but rather as an expression of precision, engineering skill, and authentic values.

 

The watches are aimed at people who have a genuine passion for mechanical movements and appreciate functional, honest products. Instead of short-lived trends, the brand focuses on timelessness, everyday practicality, and a clear, minimalist design language. Each watch is designed to function reliably in everyday life and accompany its wearers for many years to come.

​

The diverse collections are specifically tailored to the needs of different lifestyles and are divided into the following four themes: motorsports, diving, aviation, and culture. This thematic focus allows technical requirements and design features to be precisely tailored to the respective area of application - whether underwater, in the air, on the racetrack, or in everyday urban life. The motto “Real watches for real people” aptly sums up the Oris philosophy.

​

Jenni Uhren AG has been an authorized dealer and a reliable and competent distribution partner of Oris for many years. The long-standing collaboration stands for trust, expertise, and a shared passion for high-quality mechanical watches. Customers benefit from personal advice, comprehensive expertise, and a carefully curated range of products.

With its clear focus on mechanical watchmaking, its independence, and its credible values, Oris embodies authentic Swiss quality. The label appeals to people who appreciate substance, functionality, and durability.
