Oris – Big Crown X Cervo Volante 38 mm Pointer Date Travel Pouch Set – 0175477794065
Oris “X Cervo Volante” / Green Dial Pointer Date / Travel Pouch Set
Skin in the game
The Oris x Cervo Volante collaboration begins with three Big Crown Pointer Date
watches. Each has a gradient dial inspired by Alpine hues and a strap made of
sustainable deer leather. They come with a pouch and a card holder made of
the same material. But they’re not limited, and nor is this a one-time deal.
Cervo Volante
In 2017, friends Kadri Vunder Fontana, a biotechnology engineer and experienced
businesswoman, and Conny Thiel-Egenter, a biologist specialising in nature
protection and wildlife and habitat management, founded Cervo Volante.
Their vision was to take the waste, specifically deer skins, and transform them
into beautiful, hard-wearing and ultimately sustainable footwear and accessories.
Their business has grown quickly. A year ago and on learning of Oris’s Change for
the Better campaign, they approached us and asked if we’d like to collaborate on
a sustainable deer leather strap project. We jumped at the opportunity.
Cervo Volante’s hand-crafted products, low-impact methods and huge vision have
brought us a great deal of joy. Not only are their leather shoes and accessories
beautiful, they also tell stories in a way typical massproduced equivalents never could.
For example, they keep imperfections that occur during the life of a deer in their
skins, where many companies would discard them. Their skins are never the product
of farming, and they never require chemicals or fertilizers. And if the skins weren’t
used in this way, they’d simply be burned. Cervo Volante has also employed
Switzerland’s last two remaining tanneries, both of which use 100 per cent
vegetable tanning processes.
