ORIS SOCIAL CLUB EDITION II, A WATCH FOR A GLOBAL COMMUNITY

Published on:

Oris is once again putting its community at the center with the Social Club Edition II, the second watch created together with members of the Oris Social Club and the first to bring its 62 chapters around the world together in a single design.

The starting point is the 43.5 mm Aquis Date Relief, one of the Swiss brand’s dive watches. For this edition, Oris chose a silver-white dial with a distinctive frosted finish, paired with a stainless-steel unidirectional rotating bezel featuring a raised minute scale. The watch comes on an olive-green NATO strap, a configuration that has not appeared on an Aquis Date in more than a decade.

But it’s the smaller details that tell the story of this edition best. On the first day of every month, the Oris Bear appears winking through the date window. On the caseback, an engraving depicts the outline of the Oris factory in Hölstein alongside the inscription “OSC | INT,” a direct reference to the international nature of the project.

Inside is the automatic Oris 733 caliber, offering a 41-hour power reserve and running at 4 Hz. The case is also water-resistant to 300 meters. The Social Club Edition II brings to the wrist something Oris has been building far beyond its workshops. An international community that now spans 62 chapters and, for the first time, has one watch to represent them all.
