Popular Oris Collections at Merry Richards Jewelers
The Culture and Aviation collections from Oris are engaging timepieces for men, stamped with the Oris reputation for quality. The Culture collection has sub-collections whose pieces are made to be paired with a formal look, whether that look is worn in the boardroom or at a society dinner: Artelier watches include playfully refined touches, such as visible skeletons, moon phase complications, and date, day, & month calendars visible right on the face, the classy look of well-crafted leather bands and polished silver bezels distinguishing them. In 1910, Oris started making watches for pilots, and the Aviation collection attests to that history. Vintage-styled red and green dials boast clean sans-serif numbers that mark them as inspired by an older generation of style.For women, Oris offers a distinct set of looks from the Aviation and Culture collections. The Classic Date line from the Culture collection is a whimsical line typified by well-polished bezels and gold-tone Roman numerals set against contrasting colors on the dial, including navy blue, silver, and mahogany. With scratch-resistant sapphire crystals with anti-reflective coating, these watches can be taken anywhere. Alternately, look to the Big Crown Original Pointer Date line in the Aviator collection. For women who appreciate one-of-a-kind watches, the Art Deco-inspired luminosity hands and rose gold-tone milled bezel is something that will take your breath away.
