What will Oris release at Watches and Wonders?
This is pure speculation. Tired of hearing people wonder what Rolex will release at Watches and Wonders, since it won’t be obtainable anyhow?
Let‘s talk Oris and what we would like to see from them. I expect to see a calibear 40x Big Crown Pro Pilot.
What I think would be really popular, though, is a 38mm case in stainless (same dimensions as the bronze cotton candy watches and the Chronos LE), but with a Sellita movement.
This 38mm Diver 65 case, in stainless, at a price point that would encourage people to get one and maybe more than one. A very unisex design with appeal.
Here is why I think it will happen… Oris tends to use LEs that later find their design language repeated in a larger run watch.
Do you agree? What would you like to see at Watches and Wonders from anyone other than Rolex?

I would love for Oris to expand on the Aquis GMT line but shrink them down to at least 41.5 mm. The current Aquis GMT on a rubber strap looks so good in nearly every variation. 43.5 mm is just too big for a lot of wearers at the moment.
In complete agreement on the cotton candy models in stainless steel. Those would be instant hits in the $2000 USD price point
I would love to see more caliber 403 releases in the big crown pointer date family with the cathedral hands and coined edged bezel, also I would love to see a GMT CAL 400 in the pro pilot line but also I don’t l mind sellita movements there work horses my only gripe with Oris is the red rotor it looks cheap to me. still love Oris though and what they offer my first Swiss watch ever.

Agree on the 403 in a cathedral hand/coined edge BCPD. Agree on the red-rotor, too. I’d be fine with a closed, blank case-back on the Sellita watches. I will say that the display case back helped me to realize that my BCPD had a rotor sticking issue while it was still under warranty, though.
