In 2004 Oris launched the Centennial Artelier Worldtimer 1904 Limited Edition to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the company.
By pressing the two pushers at 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock, the hour hand is gradually moved either forward or backward, thus indicating the time of the respective time zone. The small 12-hour counter in the right-hand subdial shows the home time, and a small aperture serves as a day/night indicator.
