The house of Oris is delighted to present its inviting Artix Complication watch, included into its new Artix collection.While featuring a simple, yet elegant design, the extraordinary timepiece truly delights the audience with its hidden complexities.The brand's craftsmen have successfully met the challenge of incorporating moon-phase, weekday and month complications as well as a popular pointer calendar in one model.The new Oris watch is proposed with a 42 mm multi-piece case, sculptured in stainless steel. It is equipped with an imposing crown, manufactured from the same material.On its front side the case is assembled with a domed sapphire glass with interior anti-reflective treatment. The timekeeper is capable of withstanding water pressures down to 100 meters.The appealing case is complimented by a silver opalescent dial, composed of two parts.Due to this complex structure, the display acquires a three-dimensional look. The dial captures the time with visually stunning hour and minutes nickel hands, treated with Superluminova compound, which ensures exceptional night-time visibility. Joined by a nickel second hand with an 'O' counterbalance, they travel over elegant applied indices.The display of the new Artix Complication watch comprises an outer ring, which exposes applied Arabic numerals and minute-markers. The Arabic numerals are also featured on the inner ring, presented on the dial.The brand's logo resides inside the inner ring just below the numeral 31 of the pointer calendar. Beneath this inscription the audience can read the day and month indications, offered in two separate counters. The overall equilibrium of the dial is ensured by the moon-phase display, presented at 6 o'clock position inside the same ring. Giving life to the watch functions is a robust self-winding mechanical movement.The final touch is provided by a black croco print calfskin leather strap, closed with a folding safety clasp. The new Oris watch can be also accessorized with a multi-piece metal bracelet, enhanced with a jewelry clasp.

Albert S. Ruddy, Fabian Krone and Clint Eastwood[ via A. Lange & Sohne ] A. Lange & Sohne Conquer Hollywood Traditional manufactory brings the "Saxon Art of Watch***" to Los Angeles. If the customer can't come to the manufactory, the manufactory must come to the customer. In short, this is the idea behind the "House of A. Lange & Sohne", an innovative event format that celebrates the "Saxon Art of Watch***". After two extremely successful events in Singapore (2006) and Tokyo (2007), the hills of Hollywood were this year's venue. Held from 24 to 28 October in the private residence of a famous fashion designer, the production centrepiece was without question the watch manufactory itself, which showcased its skills at original watch*** and engraving workshop benches. Here authorised retailers, customers and journalists were able to follow the creation of a Lange watch in close-up and look over the shoulders of the master craftsmen as they worked. Actually being able to work on the tiny watch parts is outstandingly effective at imprinting the experience firmly in the memory and so guests were allowed to try out their skills as watchmakers and engravers under instruction from the Lange experts. Entrance to the House of A. Lange & SohneOf course, the complete collection of refined timepieces from Saxony was also on show in this wonderful setting. These included the CABARET TOURBILLON with the first stop-seconds feature ever implemented in a tourbillon calibre, which was premiered this spring in Geneva, and a selection of limited-edition and long out-of-stock Lange watches that are prized rarities at auctions these days. Two highpoints were the exhibition of historic Lange pocket watches from the extensive collection of a Japanese Lange enthusiast which had flown in specially from Tokyo and a VIP Dinner hosted by Clint Eastwood and legendary Hollywood producer Albert S. Ruddy on the evening of October 25. Opening by Fabian Krone and Marcia MazzocchiFurther highlights of the five-day series of events were press conferences, receptions and dinners for customers and celebrities. Several hundred visitors from various US including actors, directors, and producers from the major studios, found themselves deep in discussion about watch*** at Lange with their hosts, headed up by Lange CEO Fabian Krone and Marcia Mazzocchi, President of A. Lange & Sohne America. The "House of A. Lange & Sohne" closed with a private dinner for Oscar award winner Adrien Brody who wore his DATOGRAPH PERPETUAL on the occasion. It became clear in the many in-depth discussions that American watch aficionados are passionate about "Made in Germany" craftsmanship and perfection. And that A. Lange & Sohne is one of the most sought-after brands among collectors and connoisseurs in the USA. The latest A. Lange & Sohne collection Demonstration of engraving a balance cock House of A.
