Oris

yeah, this was at a thousand dollars with the, you know, Hodinkee code brand is really, you know, usually there's the Hodinkee tax on any watch.

Um, yeah, no, my, my, my Oris included.

Um, yeah, that's, that's kind of, to me, I sort of feel like that was a good deal.

Yeah.

I think if you are lucky enough to get one, you're going to be happy with it for a long time.

And I think they will.

That's a watch that I think will be like your Oris, slightly more expensive on the secondary.

As time goes on.

Oh.

A loaner from my friends who have a company called Oris.

It's the oldest still in production independent Swiss watch brand.

Whoa.

Look, particularly exciting as we were talking just before we pressed record, you... have played a key role in shaping my personal horological journey, because you've had such a storied career in the industry.

You started at Oris, then you were in the 90s.

I don't want to age you.

A little while ago, you started in Oris.

Let's do that.

And then you were at Ulysse Nardin, and then you were at Watchbox, and now you're leading this revival of Faber-Loeb, which is just a brilliant, what a career path.

It was really, I was 15 and a half years old.

I had to find a way to do my apprenticeship.

Taylor, how about you? What are you, what are you wearing today?

You know, I'm sticking with the pink watch theme, and I'm wearing a Oris cotton candy in bronze.

Wow.

No, I've been eyeing that.

guys coordinate this? My goodness, that is a level of, damn.

Very nice.

I like those Oris cotton candies.

I like getting Taylor's wrist checks because I don't really, as I mentioned on the previous podcast, I don't really know your watch collection yet.

Yeah.

Baltic to Oris, to Mr. Jones, to, um, Bremon, to brew, to Manta, to, um, Serica, Nevada, you name it, Bulova or Bulova.

Donut...

Donut had a stand, you know, and then other guys like at Patina or there's a lot of EDC guys downstairs, straps, knives, bags, and those kinds of things.

Mm.

And then the other thing, the other watch I wanted, the one I wanted for three years, it's a, it's an Oris, an Oris, um-

Okay

...

like this, but now they re-launch most of the line and I think they are now building a new design identity with a very reasonable price segment, I think.

And then, let's see, 5,000, Oris as well.

Oris.

And the last one is Frederick Constant.

Yeah, I really doubt about their design strategy, but the current Frederick Constant collection has something, their own design language, I feel.

Belova are going to be there.

And then you've got, you'd like to have Bremont, Brew, Oris, Christopher Ward.

I wish I was going to this show.

I am so jealous.

Brew, I went to see them at the show I went to in London earlier this year.

They've got some amazing watchers.

Brew, Bolivar, Oris, Christopher Ward, and Bremont are going to have a very big...

It's just one little table.

Thank you, Lux Bond and Green.

We raised $8,000 in collaboration with Oris Watch.

Oris donated a watch for $8,000.

We sold raffle tickets, $25 each.

And we raised $8,000.

Oh, I might need a roof.

Won it.

An Oris watch.
