Oris ProPilot X Miss Piggy Edition Replica Watches
Oris presents its second ProPilot X watch in collaboration with The Muppet Show, and this edition features none other than Miss Piggy.
The Muppet Show is a comedy program created in 1976 by Jim Henson, who made his mark on the history of TV puppetry with the Muppets. Since then, the Muppet Show has gained great international popularity and has been actively pursuing various media mixes such as theatrical versions and comics, as well as collaborations with various brands. Today’s main character, Miss Piggy, is a confident pig who is good at karate. In 2015, it was reported in the news that she and Kermit the frog, who had been dating for about 40 years, had broken up, making the two characters a national couple in American TV shows. Of the two, Kermit was the character who first became acquainted with watchmaking. He greeted swiss replica watch uk enthusiasts for the first time as the main character of the Oris Muppet Show Edition in 2023. Not to be outdone by Kermit’s appearance first, Miss Piggy will also appear in a watch this year, taking the stage of Oris’ ProPilot X.
The dial is a vibrant hot pink that symbolizes Miss Piggy. Applied hour indexes have been added for the first time in the ProPilot X collection. And it doesn’t stop there. The 12 o’clock index is set with baguette-cut lab-grown diamonds. The hands have also been newly created just for the Miss Piggy edition. The luminous part of the existing hands has been removed, the center has been brushed, the part that resembles a sword blade has been polished, and then angled to create a border.
The case has the same shape as the ProPilot X with a diameter of 34mm. The bezel, which is reminiscent of an aircraft jet engine turbine blade, is also the same. While the existing lineup all had a matte impression, the new product has a polished finish on the turbine blade and the inner bezel. The case side and crown are also polished, unlike the existing ones. The material used is stainless steel, which is not found in the ProPilot X collection, to emphasize the glossy finish. The water resistance specification is 100m.
The movement is a women’s automatic caliber 531 (frequency 4Hz, power reserve 42 hours) based on Sellita SW100. It is the first in the ProPilot X lineup to use a general-purpose movement, improving accessibility. The rotor hides the main character of the new product, Miss Piggy. One of the fun things about the new product is finding out when Miss Piggy will appear through the small window (Spyhole) on the case back.
The bracelet is made of the same stainless steel as the case. It has been newly manufactured to fit the smaller case, but retains the design of the ProPilot X. The diagonal turbine blade details on both sides were not forgotten. The parts that take charge of the turbine blades have the same polished finish as the bezel. The buckle is the ‘Lift Clasp’, an aircraft seatbelt style that is a must-have for the ProPilot X collection, and can be opened and closed with a simple pull.
The domestic release price of the Oris ProPilot X Miss Piggy Edition (Ref. 01 531 7796 4158-07 8 17 05LC) is 4.4 million won.
