1952 Jaguar XK 120 inspired…
This is a sharp looking new limited edition
watch from Oris. The scoop on this watch? Oris is the new time keeper
and Official Watch Partner of the RAID classic car rallies, and to mark
the occasion of the 20th RAID Suisse-Paris
Oris has created this watch. Since 1991 this rally has been staged in
Switzerland and France as a classic car rally and sees competitors cover
up to 1000km on country roads in cars built before 1975. The dial
design is inspired by the dashboard of a 1952 Jaguar XK 120 (winner of
the 2009 RAID rally). The hour and minute counters have a distinctive
red zone, which reflects the red danger zone of the Jaguar’s rev
counter. Very clean, very well designed, and probably decently priced —
I like it.
