In the world of watchmaking, some models mark an era.
And then there are watches that tell a story of revolution.

The new Oris Star Edition stems from this very history: an authentic tribute to one of the most important moments for the brand and for the entire Swiss industry. A return to its origins that is not nostalgia, but identity.

A story that changed everything

In the 1960s, Oris was constrained by regulations that prevented the brand from technical evolution. It was thanks to the determination of Dr. Rolf Portmann that in 1965, the Statute of Swiss Watchmaking was finally abolished, restoring freedom and innovation to the brand.

The following year saw the birth of the first Oris with a lever escapement: the 1966 Star. A model destined to become a symbol of rebirth and progress.

Today, 60 years later, that story is revived in a faithful yet perfectly contemporary reinterpretation.

Design: timeless modernist elegance

The new Star Edition retains the spirit of the original, featuring a 35mm tonneau case with integrated lugs, compact proportions, and a strong 1960s aesthetic.

The silver dial is clean, minimal, almost architectural. Applied stick hour markers, squared hands, and the date window positioned at 3 o'clock create a perfect balance between functionality and style.

The detail that truly makes a difference is the Plexiglas crystal, a deliberately vintage choice that provides visual warmth and authenticity.

A design that doesn't aim to impress, but to last.

Movement: reliable and consistent mechanics

Inside beats the Oris 733 automatic caliber, a solid choice perfectly in line with the brand's philosophy.

It offers a power reserve of approximately 41 hours and all essential functions: hours, minutes, central seconds, and date.

It is not an exercise in high complication, but a clear statement: reliability, simplicity, and accessibility are still central values for Oris today.

Details that tell a story

The steel caseback is engraved with the historic 1960s Oris emblem, a direct nod to the past that reinforces the connection to the original model.

The black leather strap completes the classic aesthetic, making this watch extremely versatile: perfect with a suit, yet surprisingly suitable for everyday wear.

Water resistance up to 5 ATM, screw-down crown, and robust construction confirm the timepiece's practical vocation.
