  • Monterey Car Week is effectively synonymous with the word ‘flex,’ but one event proudly contradicts the purpose of one of California’s most exclusive automotive events: the 2024 California Concours d’Lemons. At this event, Oris posted up with an Airstream trailer filled with watches and sold them to attendees of one of the nation’s most…extreme car shows. To quote Alan Galbraith, Head Gasket of the Concours d’Lemons – “We are thrilled to have Oris as the official timepiece of the 2024 California Concours d’Lemons! Oris watches are well built, reliable, and luxurious, unlike the cars on display at the show.” Way to go, Oris! (Concours d’Lemons)
