What's Happening?
Oris has introduced the Big Crown Calibre 113, continuing its tradition of innovative watchmaking. The Calibre 113 builds on the platform established by the Calibre 110, which was launched in 2014. This new movement features a ten-day power reserve from a single barrel and includes a patented non-linear power-reserve indicator. The Calibre 113 adds a 'business calendar' function, displaying day, date, month, and calendar weeks, a feature rarely seen in watches. All functions can be adjusted through correctors and a fine-adjustment device, with a stop-seconds mechanism for precise time setting. The regressive power-reserve display slows its progression as the mainspring nears depletion, offering an intuitive reading of remaining energy.
Why It's Important?
The introduction of the Calibre 113 underscores Oris's commitment to traditional watchmaking and innovation. By expanding its range of complications, Oris is enhancing its appeal to watch enthusiasts who value precision and functionality. The business calendar feature is particularly significant as it caters to professionals who require detailed time management tools. This development may strengthen Oris's position in the competitive luxury watch market, attracting consumers who appreciate craftsmanship and advanced features. The focus on a long power reserve and intuitive energy reading also highlights Oris's dedication to user-friendly design.
