Released on Lou Gehrig Day, Oris revives its 40 mm Big Crown Pointer Date as a Yankees-coloured charity edition for ALS awareness. Limited to 2,130 pieces — Gehrig’s consecutive-games record — at CHF 2,400, with his 1939 farewell speech engraved on the caseback.
For its 122nd birthday, Oris drops the seventh Hölstein Edition: a 39.5 mm steel Artelier with a mirror-polished small-seconds sub-dial, a rainbow-laser Oris bear on the caseback, and the in-house automatic Calibre 401 with a 120-hour power reserve. Limited to 250 pieces at CHF/€3,800.
Oris brings back the Artelier Complication in three warm dial colours with a pared-down layout: moon phase at 12, 24-hour second time zone at 6, nothing else. Powered by the Calibre 782, priced from USD 2,950.
Oris reaches deep into its 1960s archive and pulls out the Star. The new Star Edition is a 35mm cushion-case automatic with a domed acrylic crystal, silver sector dial and trapezoidal date window — properly period-correct — for CHF 1,800. Arguably the sharpest vintage reissue value of W&W 2026.
IWC Schaffhausen unveils the Pilot's Venturer Vertical Drive at W&W 2026 — a 44.3mm ceramic and Ceratanium watch that eliminates the crown entirely, replacing it with a rotating bezel and patent-pending rocker switch for all functions. Developed with space habitation company Vast and certified for human spaceflight, its in-house Calibre 32722 delivers 120 hours of power reserve.
