Oris Unveils ProPilot X Gonzo Edition Watch

The release pairs Oris’s 10-day Calibre 115 hand-wound movement with a laser-etched mainspring that reveals Gonzo’s face when wound to mix character storytelling with serious watchmaking.

Overview

  • Oris announced the ProPilot X Gonzo Edition on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, as the third watch in its collaboration with Disney’s The Muppets.
  • The watch uses Oris’s in-house ProPilot X Calibre 115 hand-wound movement and offers about a 10-day power reserve shown by a chili-pepper shaped power-reserve hand.
  • Oris says the mainspring carries a laser-etched image of Gonzo that becomes visible as the 1.8‑meter spring is wound, a detail the company bills as a first in Swiss watchmaking.
  • The 44 mm model has a lightweight multi-piece titanium case and bracelet, a skeletonized dial with a blue-to-red-to-yellow gradient, a rainbow laser-textured dial ring, and 100 meters of water resistance.
  • Oris is selling the watch on its website for $10,500, a move that follows strong sales of the 2023 Kermit edition and signals the brand’s strategy of using licensed character designs to draw collectors and new buyers.
