#AET #ORIS #2023
Oris is hands down one of my favorite brands. I’m not a man with deep pockets and the quality and style they deliver at their price point is one of the best in the game.
Same! I like it that their watches, to varying degrees, have a playful nature to their design. They are class.
I do like what Oris is doing. But I think the Kermit was a bit of a let down from a design perspective. I feel like they didn’t fully commit to the fun and it’s really just a neon green dialed watch instead of a Kermit watch.
They should have brought it out with a pink Miss Piggy version to go along with it. Make it a couples watch set lol
🙈🙈🙈🙈
I bought my Oris at their boutique in Amsterdam a few years ago. Also, sometimes I just drop by to browse, and I can say that the experience and atmosphere there are uniquely enjoyable! Personnel (Harry and his son) are the nicest people I’ve ever encountered when visiting watch shops
They have such a fun culture at Oris…love it!!
Yep
Don’t like bling, but that’s bling done right. It’s tasteful
I absolutely adore the Kermit. It’s an incredibly fun watch but also a top quality watch as well. I also love the caliber 400 movement so I’m all in on this watch. A few companies tried to do “fun” watches this year but these guys hit it.
Yep, it is nicer than the Rolex emoji and balloon dials on their OPs.
Exactly, so many companies try to do fun, and most fail. Oris succeeded.
You guys are having such a blast with these videos, and we are having a blast watching them. You guys rock 🔥
Glad you like them Chris. These were great fun to make.
I've walked away from Rolex due to their waitlist games and so glad I did. I can now add several other watches like Oris, Omega, Breitling, etc. to my collection. Love Oris!
We do too
I’m with you mate. Rolex are painful. Oris is fun.
@@BarkandJack Agree, I am also very excited to see their newest movement. I'll be looking at one this week. 😃
Hey guys, just want to say I've loved all the content from W&W. Life with 4 kids is making it hard to keep up with all the videos and Therapy Sessions, but I enjoy getting to them when I can! Stared into a blue Aquis dial last week at the AD, and that is an enjoyable experience to be sure!
Thank you!
Love this Oris Kermit. Hits the right kind of fun unlike the Rolex efforts which are frankly, bloody awful.
I noticed as they were rolling the Kermit that the lugs are the same shape as the hands. Pretty cool design element.
Great Wolf advert by Andrew 😂😂😂😂
🤫
I actually like the Kermit watch! I like the understated Kermit vibes. If they came out with another version with Kermit prominently on the dial, that'd be cool too.
Keep up the excellent content Gentlemen! For those of us who may never get to attend an event like this, you are giving us LIFE!
Happy to!
Thanks for watching mate and hope you get to an event like this at some point. It’s good fun. 👍🏻
@@BarkandJack That is the dream one day! Wouldn't even know where to begin looking into something like this but I know it IS good fun. Cheers and keep up the great work!
You rockstar!
Maybe a slightly darker central green color with the lime only as a peripheral rim or surrounding the hour marks would have looked more stunning. Anyway, if I were rich I would buy it, because the design is beautiful.
I‘d totally rock the Kermit ❤ …just would love to see Oris print the origin Hölstein subtitle under the Oris branding on the dial. Would make the name/watches so much more significant!
Love the Kermit the way it is, awesome color, please no comic figures on the dial, once a month as a date is enough. Would have bought it even without the frog. The metallic color is just so good.
I love how Ralf left one them hanging with a high 5 at the end 😅
Wore this last week and it really does make you smile, find Kermit a bit small in the date window. Wife loved it and looks like I may need to purchase it for her…… well done Oris.
You guys look like you’re steaming but holding it together so well.
I salute you
For me when i saw the press release photos and coverage i really love it, had a chance to pick one up yesterday but when tried on wrist i just felt its not for me. Visibility is an issue and that just was the pain point for me.
Love this trio. Keep up the great work!
This trio loves you!
🤘
Super cool episode, and lovely to see ORIS! I think they are a lovely brand and are doing some great stuff (beyond the coffee on the booth... :) ). Absolutely love the new format being a bit shorter while still having the energy. And frankly amazed at the quality of the content... This is getting to be the 'Discovery channel' of watches! I guess this has Marcus' DNA in it... Anyway, Bravo to all, keep it coming. Thanks to you my watch budget is exploding and my wife worries about the number of watch winders i own... :)
You’re welcome ! Thanks for being part of it
Lime Green Trainers George; you’re a Tart if the first order! Nearly steals Oris’s thunder 😂
Kermit(s) and the Grouch! 😂
Can't help but smile when watching this video. Agree with George, you have to smile about life! 😄
😊
The world needs a Captain Boring T shirt ! 😅
It's like you are ready for "Parcour"!!!!
the Frog 🐸 is ok, it is fun!!
"actually that looks quite good on my wrist." 🤣🤣🤣
😢
@@AboutEffingTime it did look good on Andrew's wrist! I really like all the versions of that watch. The reversal is what made me laugh.
Ok guys I love Oris my fav is the 65 chrono bracelet. My wife fell for the Diamond date 41.5 and we are ordering. She is hooked.
Love you guys conversation on watches/timepieces. All the best from Md.
Oris Kermit is the Weezer Green album color
ACCURATE - great album too
Love the Kermit. When can I buy the AET winder????????
Not long we promise!
The altimeter is killer. Beautiful
It’s a beast of a watch.
Great job fellas. Andrew, brother....I hate to tell you, but the Kermit did look quite good on your wrist. Oris just does everything with class.... period. Best wishes to all of you
I know 😞
You all three make my sunday start with a laught, and agree with George, enjoy life
Do things that make you smile 😃
Always look forward to your take on the watch industry, keep up the great work!
Love it in concept, but the white markers on neon green are illegible, and, like all of the PPX line, the flat midcentury dial is at odds with the (gorgeous) modern, sculptural, and angular case. My hope for W&W was that Oris would update the PPX with applied indices (as they did with the big-crown) and higher-grade titanium that doesn’t scratch as easily. Maybe next year? And if they do a Gonzo edition I’m 100% on board.
Top notch guys,,, what a blast.
Those overhauls from which company they look slick.
Oris is the brand for me.
beautifull_green_on_the_kermit.:)
I agree with Kermit on the dial.
❤❤❤ I love you guyZ ❤❤❤ Super entraining to watch the 3 of you working together and sometimes not is just awesome!!! Yes ORIS ROCKS!! The best green dial ever made goes to the limited edition Oris Aquis Hangang 😊😊😊😊
Tried the Kermit and Pelagos 39 because i am looking for a titanium daily driver and while i love both the Kermit is just a bit too green for me 😅
ONE MORE REASON TO LOVE ORIS…THEY DON’T HAVE THEIR HEADS UP THEIR ASS - LIKE A LOT OF OTHER WATCH MANUFACTURERS…JUST CHECK OUT THE ROOM. “IT TELLS YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW”
Yep
I totally agree with Andrew about the dials. They do look gorgeous. The Kermit is a nice idea, and the bracelet is lovely, but the green is too 1990s psychedelia. One thing: is that a Watchmen blood flecked Smiley badge? Quis custodiet ipsos custodes. The channel's new motto perhaps? The answer: we do... for our sins.😂
Yep it was lightly inspired
@@AboutEffingTime These shorter videos are working well, and I'm guessing they're to allow Marcus and the technical team to survive the aftermath of Watches and Wonders.
Might want those shoes more than the watch!
The shoes were pretty damn cool!
The only time you need a long power reserve is when you’re not wearing the watch, and if you’re not wearing it what’s the point of having it?
Sizzling hot show, you fellas popping with fun, charm, insight and intellect. Where’s the gin? Compliments to the film crew🤙
Marcus / Lars / Grant 🔥
I love the kermit!! Since I can wear it seriously but still be a bit quirky and stunning look. But I do understand that it is not as easy to pair with clothes. So it can be the fun watch from your watch collection :)
Sure
Great video 👏
🙌
Any watch that needs sunglasses to properly see it is no-go for myself.
Love the channel and totally sold on the Kermit!
The channel loves you too. 🤙🏻
I actually like the Kermit a lot ... without the frog in the date window. I hope they offer a frog-less version of the Kermit, it would still be a light-hearted and fun watch.
Great video! Not long enough! Kermit looks great. I would totally wear it. I usually agree with Andrew, but I think he has it wrong this time. It must be tough to shoot videos in this type of setting, but it's great to watch.
🐸 💕
Please keep these coming! I hope you have more brands loaded in! However much I do adore Oris and what they do, the highlight for me were the few seconds of the Bamford Aquaracer on screen. 😇
same I loved that as well also got on my wrist today it makes me smile
Kermy ! Love the color of this. You can’t teach class.
I would make Kermit pop on the dial at 12 like Andrew next to that Wolf winder 😄
😂 a minute repeater that whispers the strikes
@@AboutEffingTime
🤣🤣🤣
George better get to work, we're on to something here
Kermit looks surprisingly good on the wrist
🤦🏼♂️ (says Andrew)
@@AboutEffingTime not everyone has to be as boring as you.
The Oris Pro Pilot Kermit is a great ⌚ for pediatricians.
The case on that altimeter ⌚ is ethereal.
I don’t like this watch but I can admit the amount of promo this watch is getting is helping the brand. 🐸 😆
Love the style of the watch but do not like the neon green BUT I think the watch is fun & love the idea of the Kermit coming up once a month. Great fan of Oris & their ethos……
Where do we buy the wolf winder?
I love how much you guys rub off on eachorher! Now Andrew is captain boring 😜 and Adrian is calling lime green sexy. 😂✨✨
😵💫😵💫
It’s when I start talking like Andrew that I get concerned.
The Kermit isn’t for me, but I think it’s well designed and awesome.
I want that Kermit shirt ❤
The three best gents in watch coverage. I'd actually watch them debate the weather forecast.
its always hot thank you sir much for your comment
I can’t wait for the Miss Piggy! 🐽💄🤭🤣👍🏼
🙈
@@AboutEffingTime Especially to see George’s runners! 😱😆
Andrew kept interrupting when George or Adrian is speaking. Why??
The Banter boys are at it again…
Talkin smack
@@AboutEffingTime Used to have group of friend I’d carpool up to university together. The drive quickly became known as the “Shark Pool.” Loved each other but we were vicious. This brings me back…
Where can I find the watch winder?
Coming very soon
Seen one yesterday, nice watch but that colour green is a bit too much for my liking
The watch is great. Kermit on the date wheel is fabulous but the green dial kills me… in a very bad way.
Thanks!
Might just be enough for one of Adrian's fancy coffees!!!
🤯
Thanks so much Mowerman 🙌🏻🙌🏻 ☕️
Love oris, own 3 (an aquis, a bc3 sportsman and a tt1 racing which my wife wears mostly)
I like most oris’s but the Kermit doesn’t do it for me, saw one in the flesh last weekend, the dial is way too bright for me.
Also on paper the propilot x should be an ideal watch for me, killer looks (blue and grey version), good size, beautiful bracelet but on my wrist it looks just way too small. Almost feminine.
A bit bigger and it would be my dream watch…. But not in almost fluorescent colours.
Wears very small as no lugs to speak of - lug to lug tiny
The dial is too bright. I bet in sunlight it's not very readable.
It’s a tennis ball
🎾 🎯
Totally agree with Andrew on the Kermit!! I appreciate the intention from Oris of being fun/playful, but sorry, it is just horrible! Similar approach with the new Rolex day-date "emojis puzzle"...
👯♀️
Hate hate that watch
Thank you for the phenomenal content, please be patient with one another and don't split up like other great youtube channels, LOL.
Mummy and daddy are fighting again 😢
Love my (None kermit) Green Aquis, some many people comment on the looks and the green really pops when the sun catches it. Real quality brand without a silly price tag. PS, I'm not a fan of the Kermit watch, its a bit childish!
I also disliked the Kermit - until I saw it at an AD yesterday! Probably not a watch I would ever buy, though.
Oris is my favorite brand but yeah, I can’t get on with that Kermit thing…🐸
New Atelier in 2023?
Nobody wearing a Rolex is ever allowed to call anybody "old and boring", unless they're looking into a mirror, hahahaha
I love the Kermit. I just wish I could afford one, but being a Dogface Nobody, $4600 is way out of my league for disposable income on a watch.
Hated the Kermit...honestly, its awful. I'd rather have a puzzle DayDate...which is really saying something.
Love Oris....but Kermit (or any other puppet, cartoon or whatever..) on a watch dial not meant for my kids....just nah... 😄
Propilot on the other hand...too big for my tiny wrist, and I don't effing care - I want it 😁
Odd coincidence that Oris would have an emoji as one of its dates in a gimmicky watch, just like Rolex.
🧐 collective consciousness
Kermit is not really an emoji. Oris did it better though. What a shitstorm Rolex got right after w&w and now nobody talks about it anymore 😆
You guys forgot to bring your proton packs.
Kermit busters
That was Andrew’s fault. When we said bring the guns, he went to the gym! 🤦🏼♂️
The Kermit is hidious... If i am going to spend money on a watch I want it to be classy. They is like a watch that you get free with Big mac in the local burger shop
Understand iPhone and other products from Apple is Chinese but Apple developed only . Adrian has some allergy for watches which aren’t made by Rolex or Tudor.
Thst Oris is the only true Kermit. Not that other one 😂
I like colorful dials (my favorite watch in my collection is my green dial op36) but that Kermit dial is the most hideous shade of green I've ever seen on any watch. It falls somewhere between pond scum and vomit. Very hard pass.
That green dial is incredible. Looks fantastic. The Kermit connection needs to be removed and it needs to be a normal date wheel version asap.
Good work once again Gents - I am hooked on your channel and vids..... And I am a 100% Sigma male so it is most unusual for me to "gush"..... But you guys do make me smile similar to how watches can make you all smile. Especially my younger brother George!!! Keep up the good work mates - I just bought another watch I really did not need over the weekend but man oh man - I REALLY wanted it! And - it does make me smile! Safe travels men! Your loyal from the States!
That Kermit watch is an total embarrassment. Who on earth in their right mind would send £3,700 on a joke watch like that. This is why Oris are ok thanks to the Aquis but can never be taken too seriously. Oh and that shade of green is called "Exorcist pea green vomit"!!!!
Love it.....wish I had £3700 to waste
Would buy it for £1000
