DESCRIPTION

  • Big Crown ProPilot Rega Fleet L.E.

    Oris announces an exceptional series of 21 limited-edition watches built to the specifications of the iconic Swiss Air-Rescue Rega

    Special treatment

    Oris’s partnership with the iconic Swiss Air-Rescue Rega continues with a third limited-edition watch that flies even higher than before

    If it wasn’t for aviation, it’s possible the Swiss watch industry would never have taken off. Early pilots discovered a watch was a vital tool and turned to makers of Swiss pocket watches for tools they could refer to while helming their makeshift contraptions.

    Oris, for its part, was making watches for those pioneer aviators as early as 1910. We have catalogues from the time in our archives showing pocket watches with cases decorated with Blériot-style aircraft.

    It was aviation that pushed Oris to develop our first wristwatches in 1917, and then in 1938, the Big Crown, a watch with an oversized crown created for gloved airmen. The model has been in constant production ever since and has become our signature design, fuelling Oris’s reputation as the creator of ultra-reliable, ultra-precise tool watches for adventurous people.

    Through the decades, Oris has partnered with many leading organisations, military units and display teams linked to the world of aviation. These have made us one of the first names in high-functioning pilot’s watches. Innovations such as the Worldtimer (with its push buttons that move the hour hand forwards and backwards in one hour jumps) and the Big Crown ProPilot Altimeter have brought useful functions to the wrists of pilots (and plenty who aspire to be pilots) all over the world.

    In 2016, we entered into one of our proudest partnerships with Swiss Air-Rescue Rega.

    Rega, which you can read more about over the following pages, has been offering an aeromedical service for almost seven decades and is recognised worldwide for its excellence and professionalism.

    We created a watch for Rega that year and again in 2018. Now, we’re delighted to announce a third piece. But this one’s different. Built to Rega’s specifications and in 21 iterations, it’s a landmark collection.

    “Oris has a reputation for creating ultra-reliable, ultra-precise tool watches for adventurous people”

    “During 2020, Rega brought medical assistance to 11,000 people in distress”

    Turning the air red

    With its red helicopters, Rega is one of the most recognised and respected air rescue services in the world. Oris celebrates it with 21 limited-edition watches, one for each of its aircraft

    Rega, one of Switzerland’s proudest and most trusted organisations, was founded in 1952. It’s now patronised by almost half the Swiss population, and is among the world’s most recognisable air rescue services, symbolised by its iconic red helicopters and crew members in their red uniforms.

    Today, it serves as an integral part of the Swiss healthcare system, with 13 helicopter bases and a fleet of state-of-the-art aircraft.

    From these bases, Rega operates 18 rescue helicopters and can reach anywhere in the area it covers within 15 minutes of an emergency call. Each base has a crew of pilot, paramedic and emergency flight physician ready to go, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

    While it’s famous for its high-altitude mountain rescues, Rega’s service covers all medical emergencies, from road accidents to sudden illness, such as a cardiac arrest. Last year, Rega also repatriated more than 750 patients back home to Switzerland, either by one of its three ambulance jets, or scheduled passenger aircraft. Rega says its mission is to “provide assistance wherever a person’s life or health can be preserved or protected through our intervention”.

    During the pandemic, the organisation’s role has become even more significant. In 2020, it organised more than 16,000 missions and brought medical assistance by air to 11,000 people in distress. Thanks to previous investments made in patient isolation units, it also repatriated 140 Covid-19 patients on board its ambulance jets.

    To this day, Rega remains a privately run, non-profit organisation funded by a patronage system, whereby private individuals make regular contributions to the running of the service. At last count, it had more than 3.6 million patrons.

    Oris is extremely proud to partner Rega and to have worked with its teams to produce 21 limited-edition watches, each a series of 100 pieces carrying a case back engraved with one of the service’s 21 aircraft.

    The Rega fleet

    Rega operates 18 rescue helicopters and three fixed-wing aircraft. Each of these 21 aircraft, identified by their registrations, has its own case back in the new Oris Big Crown ProPilot Rega L.E. collection. Only 100 of each will be made

    Airbus Helicopters H145

    FOR VERSATILE OPERATIONS ACROSS SWITZERLAND

    The twin-engine H145 features cutting-edge avionics and navigation technology, is equipped with a four-axis autopilot, and can also perform satellite- based approach flights with extreme precision. Its spacious cabin means that it is predestined for special intensive care patient transports, such as with a heart-lung machine or a mobile incubator for premature babies.

    Fit for purpose

    The Oris Big Crown ProPilot Rega Fleet L.E. was created in partnership with Rega’s operational staff – with some truly memorable results

    Before designing the Big Crown ProPilot Rega Fleet L.E., we turned to Rega’s staff and invited them to take part in a series of workshops where we asked them a simple question: what do you need in a wristwatch?

    They told us a number of things: they liked watches that had clean, ultra-legible dials that they can read in a split second; they said they wanted a watch that wouldn’t reflect light – no glare; and they said they needed a watch with two tools – a GMT function for recording logbook times and a pulsometer that could serve as back-up to electronic machines that measure patients’ heart rates. That the watch should be robust, accurate and entirely reliable was a given.

    So we built them the Big Crown ProPilot

    Rega Fleet L.E.. Its black dial has high-contrast white hands and numerals filled with high- grade Super-LumiNova®. Its stainless steel case and Oris-patented ‘Lift’ clasp are coated in anti-reflective gunmetal grey PVD. It has a clearly indicated second time zone. And engraved into its bi-directional rotating bezel are a red triangle for timing the “golden hour” (the first hour after injury during which a patient’s chances of recovery are highest), and a pulsometer scale, read off with a white- tipped central seconds hand. We added leather and rubber straps with a quick change system.

    But there was more. One pilot had an idea to link watches to individual aircraft to reflect

    the close bond crews and patients often develop with the them. So we created 21 different case backs, each engraved with the outline of a Rega aircraft and its registrations. Only 100 of each will be made, making this the broadest but also most limited collection of pilot’s watches we’ve ever conceived.

    For these special watches, we also created a water-resistant red Ventile® pouch, complete with a second quick-change strap in hygienic, easy-clean red rubber and a tool for changing the clasp. The pouch has a number of elastic straps for tweezers, plasters and bandages so it can be upgraded to a pocket first aid kit. As a package, it’s the most collaborative watch we’ve ever made.
