Oris Hölstein Edition 2024

The Hölstein Edition 2024 celebrates Oris’s founding date of June 1, exactly 120 years ago. Based on the Divers Sixty-Five, it’s the first full black-on-black watch we’ve ever made.

Every 1 June for the past five years, we’ve released a Hölstein Edition. We do this to mark our birthday (120 years this year), and to create a watch for Oris fans that would otherwise never appear in our core collection. This year, we’ve done a black-on-black version of our retro sports watch, the Divers Sixty-Five.

A few notes, starting with the full black- on-black finish, a first for Oris. The 40mm stainless steel case, bezel and crown are plated in black DLC (diamond-like carbon). The hands, hour markers, dial text, date wheel and lume are all in black, too, and the watch is set on a black rubber strap with a black-DLC-plated buckle.

This is also the first time we’ve paired a regular bezel with a minutes scale (rather than a 12-hour scale) on a Divers Sixty- Five with our in-house Calibre 400. That means the watch has a five-day power reserve and elevated levels of everyday anti-magnetism, and that it comes with 10-year recommended service intervals and a 10-year warranty (when you register it at MyOris).

The case back is also plated in black DLC, and engraved with the limited- edition number and the Oris Bear, who because it’s summer is sporting flowery swim trunks and sunglasses. The watch is water-resistant to 10 bar (100 metres).

We’ll make 250, available in our boutiques and on our website, where they can also be ordered for collection from authorised Oris dealers. First come, first served.

All told, it’s a special watch in a special year to say thank you to Oris fans.
