The Oris ProPilot X Kermit Edition Pièce Unique takes an already unconventional Swiss mechanical watch and transforms it into a singular creation.
Building on the original collaboration between Oris and Disney's Kermit the Frog, this special piece features intricate Muppet-inspired artwork hand-engraved across its titanium case and bracelet by skilled artisans commissioned through Red Army Watches.
The familiar Kermit-green dial retains the original watch's playful character, including a special date display that reveals Kermit on the first day of every month.
Beneath its distinctive exterior is Oris Calibre 400, an automatic movement offering a five-day power reserve, enhanced anti-magnetism and long-term reliability.
This unique piece has been sold. Red Army Watches welcomes enquiries for new bespoke commissions, each developed with its own individual character.
Inspiration & Design
The original ProPilot X Kermit Edition was created around a simple idea: making time for a little joy.
Every first day of the month, Kermit appears in the date window to mark Kermit Day, encouraging the wearer to take a moment away from the demands of everyday life.
For this Pièce Unique, RAW extends that philosophy beyond the dial.
The titanium case and bracelet become a canvas for intricate Muppet-inspired engravings, introducing an artisanal dimension to the ProPilot X's contemporary industrial design.
The contrast is particularly compelling. The original watch is defined by angular geometry, precise machining and technical engineering, while the hand-engraved artwork brings an expressive, personal character.
Each detail was created specifically for this commission, making the finished watch a genuine pièce unique.
Future commissions may explore similar techniques or themes, but the artwork of this particular watch will not be reproduced.
Dial & Case
The watch retains the original Kermit-green dial, with luminous hands and hour markers arranged in the clean, contemporary configuration of the ProPilot X.
Its signature feature appears in the date window: Kermit the Frog replaces the numeral on the first day of each month, introducing a discreet element of humour to the otherwise technical design.
The 39mm multi-piece titanium case features the ProPilot X's distinctive angular construction, complemented by a double-domed sapphire crystal with an internal anti-reflective coating.
What distinguishes this Pièce Unique is the individually commissioned hand engraving applied to the titanium case and bracelet. The Muppet-inspired artwork introduces intricate decorative details while retaining the underlying architecture of the original watch.
A screwed titanium caseback with sapphire viewing window reveals the automatic movement.
The watch offers 100 metres of water resistance.
Movement
Powering the ProPilot X Kermit Edition Pièce Unique is Oris Calibre 400, part of the brand's modern generation of high-performance automatic movements.
Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz), it delivers a 120-hour power reserve, allowing the watch to remain running for up to five days when fully wound.
The movement is engineered for enhanced anti-magnetic performance and reliability, with Oris recommending ten-year service intervals.
Functions include central hours, minutes and seconds, an instantaneous date display, date correction and stop-seconds for precise time setting.
The standard two-year warranty can be extended to ten years through MyOris registration, subject to Oris's warranty conditions.
Bracelet / Strap
The watch is fitted with a titanium bracelet, retaining the sculptural geometry of the ProPilot X collection.
For this unique edition, the bracelet also features individually hand-engraved Muppet-inspired artwork, extending the commissioned design beyond the watch case.
The combination of lightweight titanium construction and intricate decorative craftsmanship creates a distinctive contrast between modern industrial design and traditional hand engraving.
Final Thoughts
The Oris ProPilot X Kermit Edition Pièce Unique brings together Swiss mechanical precision, contemporary titanium construction, playful character design and traditional craftsmanship.
Its individually engraved case and bracelet transform the original Kermit Edition into something unmistakably personal, while Oris Calibre 400 provides the technical substance expected of a modern Swiss mechanical watch.
This one-of-a-kind creation has found its owner, but the story does not end here.
