Oris 400 7784 8786-SET ProPilot Coulson Limited Edition 41mm Watch w/ Red Orange Dial w/ Textile Strap
The Coulson Limited Edition has a carbon fibre case produced using a novel 3D printing process
To mark this important partnership between Oris and Coulson Aviation, Oris has created a watch based on the Big Crown ProPilot and inspired by the innovation and daring spirit of the two independent companies.
Its most striking feature is its fiery, gradient orange dial, a clear symbol of the perilous environments Coulson’s brave pilots rush towards while most are obliged to turn away.
Surrounding it is a carbon fibre case produced using an innovative, patented 3D printing process never seen before in watchmaking.
Devised by Switzerland’s prestigious ETH Zurich university (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), it prints carbon fibre and a highgrade polymer developed in aerospace called PEKK simultaneously, weaving them together to create an ultra-lightweight, extremely rigid material. The process is so precise that you can fix the material’s pattern, where typically carbon fibre watch cases are random.
Completing the high-tech, lightweight profile are a grey-PVD-plated titanium fixed bezel, screw-down crown and case back, and a black textile strap. The watch, movement included, weighs just 65 grammes.
Inside it is Oris’s equally innovative, highlyanti-magnetic five-day automatic Calibre 400. Only 1,000 pieces will be made.
