Catalogue Note:
Sotheby's is honored to offer at auction, two limited edition Oris timepieces in collaboration with the pioneering aeronautical humanitarian organization, Wings of Hope.
Wings of Hope is a US-based aeronautical humanitarian organization founded 60 years ago. Twice nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, Wings of Hope has used the power of aviation to bring medical support to remote and vulnerable communities in more than 50 countries. Wings of Hope relies heavily on donors and volunteers. Last year, 350 volunteers gave their time. Fuel costs are covered by donations.
Sometimes, donations come in the form of aircraft, and if these can’t be used at one of Wings of Hope’s 11 field bases, they’re sold to fund the mission. This way, 86 cents of every dollar given to the organization goes directly into funding its programs. The Oris Wings of Hope Limited Edition watches will support its mission, too.
The two models, both based on the signature Big Crown pilot’s watch, are powered by Caliber 401, one of their high performance five-day automatics. One is cased in 40 mm of steel and limited to 1,000 pieces; the other is cased in 38 mm of solid 18-carat yellow gold and limited to 100 pieces. Both come on Cervo Volante sustainable deer leather straps. This is an exciting collaboration and Sotheby's is pleased to offer these two pieces on behalf of Oris and Wings of Hope.
