ris has announced its collaboration with The Muppets and Miss Piggy and the release of the ProPilot X Miss Piggy Edition. With its hot pink dial, baguette diamond 12 o’clock hour marker and case back spyhole revealing Miss Piggy’s glamorous portrait, the watch gets the year going with a big smile.
The watch is the second expression of the brand’s joyful collaboration with The Muppets, following the ProPilot X Kermit Edition, which introduced the concept of Kermit Day on the first of every month and making a little time for ourselves. The Miss Piggy edition of the watch continues the collaboration with the same entertaining spirit, embracing Miss Piggy’s bold, beautiful, confident persona to create an utterly unforgettable design.
The new edition is based on the brand’s striking, sculpted ProPilot X, now with a 34.00 mm stainless steel case. It’s powered by a Swiss Made automatic movement (Oris only makes mechanical watches). And it has a playful little secret. On the mirror-polished case back, there’s a small opening, a spyhole that reveals a picture of a coy, demure Miss Piggy on the lilac rotor, which appears and disappears as the rotor rotates.
“We’re very excited to be working with ‘vous’, Miss Piggy, the world’s most fabulous pig,” says Rolf Studer, Oris Co- CEO. “Like you, we’re optimistic about the future, and we want to have some fun getting there. Life’s too short not to have big dreams and to enjoy yourself. We made this watch for independent, stylish, and above all, fabulous individuals and we couldn’t think of a better collaborator than you, a global icon, to be the star of the project.”
