ORIS Celebrates 5 Years of Partnership with WilliamsF1 Team

Oris, the Swiss watch manufacturer, hosted a grand celebration to mark its 5 years of triumphant partnership with the WilliamsF1 team. This milestone event was held at its flagship boutique in Lot 10, Kuala Lumpur in the presence of Datuk Azalina Dato’ Othman Said, Minister of Youth and Sports and Nico Rosberg, WilliamsF1 Driver.

This year also witnessed the furtherance of the Oris branding on the drivers’ gloves in addition to its current branding on the front wing end plates, the drivers’ overalls as well as on the pit stop crew’s clothing.

Oris’ association with WilliamsF1 started in 2003 as the team’s official time provider. With the intention of broadening their influence in new markets, the Swiss company produced a series of Formula One inspired timepieces, with the strap designs reflecting that of a Formula One tyre’s vertical tread.

Oris in living up to its commitment as the official watch partner today added to the collection, a sporty mechanical top class quality watch, which had its debut here in Malaysia, even before the Basel fair!

Datuk Azalina Dato’ Othman Said, Nico Rosberg and Paul Phua, General Manager of Swiss Prestige Sdn Bhd put their best hands forward to unveil the New Oris TT3 Chronograph.  

“This partnership links exciting worlds on a high level: High-Mech watches matched with the High-Tech of Formula One. The art of watch-making and motor racing, both at Oris and the WilliamsF1 team are based on long tradition and great passion in the pursuit of excellence,” said Paul Phua.
