- The Oris ProPilot Kermit is beating out Rolex as the KERMIT BRAND! Sorry Rolex Submariner Kermit and Cermit ;) Hehe.
In all seriousness, this watch just brought me so much joy and reminded me why I love watches in the first place. What do you guys think to it?

"I got a Hublot event to go to." OMG! Truer words were never spoken.
Bahahaha! The guy loves trash 🤣 🗑
I thought that was hilarious! Thanks for bringing back my childhood with the muppets!
Oscar the Grouch is the man! He’s dropping all that Sesame St. cash on a blue sapphire Big Bang.
That was such a line. Honestly genius.
Hodinkee has Kermit, Britt has Britt making a voice. Doing the most with the least.
Crazy how Oris managed to match the green of the date wheel to the dial, while much more expensive brands are not matching even the white or black to the right shade.
🤣🤣 I like to describe this video as “like the hodinkee one. But shit” hahaha. And you’re sooo right on the date wheel! No excuses!
That was one of the best episodes you did. especially the telephone call from Kermit 😂
Ahhh BLESS! I’m so glad you enjoyed! This is the most fun I’ve ever had filming a video! 🐸
ORIS lives up to their slogan GO YOUR OWN WAY!! I love ORIS for what they represent. ❤❤❤ 😊😊😊
Haha I love it!!! I love oris too! 👏🏻👏🏻
good to know those ventriloquism skills you've learned over the past few months have come in handy
This is peak Gringa! An objective review that is funny, insightful and offers an all too rare insight into the potential emotional value of a watch. 😎
🤣🤣 PEAK GRINGA hahaha! Ahhhh this watch really was a joy to review! I think this is the most fun I’ve ever had with a watch! 🐸🐸
You are such a dork, and it’s awesome. Keep up the awesome work Brit, and don’t ever change.
🤣🤣🤣 this is PEAK gringa dorky-ness 🐸 I’ve never had so much fun making a video! Hahaha. A ludicrously fun watch deserves a stupidly fun video! I’m always honoured to get a compliment from podcastage himself!
Amazing that you got Oscar to not only come on the show, but to let his hair down a little, so to speak. I mean, on Sesame Street you can’t even tell he has a Canadian accent! 😎🍪🥃
Wow! I know! Well, I was just so luck that Oscar is a fan of the channel! He said I was the only watch channel he really liked and he has really particular tastes. 😝🤣
I love that Oris clowned the Rolex fanboys by releasing an actual Kermit watch.
Love Oris, but all the Pro Pilot X models (barring the skeleton) have a mismatch between the sporty-industrial case and bracelet, and the delicate, dressy dials with painted indices.
Clyde Frog! You should have Eric Cartmen with you for this lol!
BAAHAHA! YES!!!! Fellow South Park lovers! 🤣🐸
Nice episode Britt!!!
You just validated why I have more than one Oris.
Good to see you've recovered too.
You summed up watch perfectly. This episode was light and fun. Hope your feeling better every day.
Ahhh bless! Thank you so much! I had so much fun filming this one! 🐸✨
4400 chf little bit expensive for Oris.
It is a bit expensive isn’t it! It’s a couple hundred £££ more than the standard Propilot X, for the royalties I am sure. And the movement is quite cool! But yes! It’s at the top end of the budget!
Britt, great job! This is one of my favorite episodes, truly a joy to watch. I laughed many times. Thank you. Keep up the great work and I hope you are feeling a little better every day!
I find it fuggly initially. Went to one of the AD to try it few days back, was blown away by it. The titanium, crown, comfortability of the case and the colour of the dial were pretty awesome
Clyde Frog? Sounds like a South Park reference. 😂
BAHAHA! It IS a South Park episode!!!! I didn’t know if anyone would get it. 🤣🐸
OK, so I've had my Kermit on wrist for 24 hours now - and I really like. it. I smile at the dial color every time I look at it, which is way more often than necessary to tell the time - and I have not cheated and advanced the date to the first of the month, saving the appearance of The Frog as a surprise to myself. Yes, the absence of micro-adjust is not ideal (I added a link this morning to enable adequate blood flow to my wrist), and yes, the contrast of the hands with the dial is not that great- but it is a FUN watch!
I think this little green watch is delightful. It's not for me, but that's not the point. The point is fun, colorful, charming, and unique
I have this watch, and I love it. Despite Kermit and the bold green dial, it does not feel cartoonish or toy like. On the contrary, it feels like a solid well-made watch with a touch of fun.
This is honestly my dream watch, and the vid from you I was waiting all my life for
Blurring the line between your day job and your channel 🙂 and we all behave very similarly. Loved it. Cheers!
Great review as always Brit.
Of the four Pro Pilot X's dial colors, I honestly like the green the best. Even if it has a $300 USD premium. I love the case and bracelet design but I do not really like the standard dial colors. The blue is OK but I wish it was a brighter shade; the grey makes the watch look to dull; and the peachy "red" dial pops but I don't think it would work for me.
I think this would be awesome with a yellow or orange dial, ala Doxa. Super tooly. Or just go with a white dial. I have been on a white/silver dial kick lately.
Love the Kermit, but just got the blue version. “They made me an offer I couldn’t refuse.” Cannot wait. Sorry Kermie.
Don’t give up your day job 😂
🤣🤣🐸
I bought the Kermit watch. Very nice! I like the titanium and modern design with a great clasp. I was concerned about the low contrast of the white indices and lime green dial but it's no problem reading the time and the low contrast actually enhances the lime green dial. Pricy for an Oris watch but totally worth it. It's not a limited edition but asking around people think total Kermit watch production might be around 1500.
Did you say the word wanky! I nearly spat my tea out! 😂
BAHAHA! 🤣 thisbis the most British comment!
Great episode Britt! Very amusing and on point. I LOVED your “expert’s” dig on Hueblot!!! LOL!
Haha ahhh thabk you so much Gary! I thought a stupidly fun watch deserved an equally fun video! 😱🐸
Oh, your watch channel keeps evolving really fast!!! The humble beginnings, not so long ago and now this all flashy CGI filled presentation! I´m in awe! A truly crazy and beautiful watch at the same time. Much like you Britt. Umm... not that you are a watch but you know what I mean. Hope you are getting better every second! Great video.
Your Oscar voice sounds exactly like the original English dub of Ash Ketchum in Pokemon. Wild!
I really do love this watch. I'm kind of torn on expanding the line though. If this is the only collab watch, I'd be happy, but part of me wouldn't mind if they did another watch for each of the main muppets. Pink for Piggy, blue for Gonzo, dark brown for Rowlf, red for Animal, light brown/orange for Fozzy...
This is the second Oris I actually want. Kinda love the silly seatbelt clasp too, Oris are best when they bust out of trad territory. Looks fine on you btw.
Ahhh THE James Blonde himself APPROVES! 😱💕 what’s the other one that you love?!
@@BrittPearceWatches My mates got a bronze diver with a tuquoise dial, from like a decade ago.....
Why does Oscars voice sound like Bart Simpson prank calling someone? 😂
🤣🤣 hmmm I don’t know! How strange. 😝
Collecting should be fun, yes? Well what's more fun than this? Love the small details such as the bezel and the lines of the case itself. Very, very cool. And yes, looks great on your wrist.
😂🐸🐸 RIGHT?! I love the fun quirky details! It just makes me happy!
I’m loving the super awkward Hodinkee frog interview parody.
Bahaha! The dinks got Kermit. But only I was able to book Clyde Frog! ;)
@@BrittPearceWatches Clyde was brilliant!
My ex gifted me Oris Ctr3 Ruf chronograph...some toxic associations with Oris....and this toxic colour dudee...but honestly I love it...
🤣🤣🐸 oh boy! The this watch was not meant to be for you! Hahaha
@@BrittPearceWatchesI love Salmon dial waaaayyy more...
It's streets ahead of that silly Rolex Bubble gum dial with all the colours released at Watches and Wonder's.
🐸🐸 you know! I just love how fun and whimsical it is! Silly! But not kitsch. Everything is just right!
Love it. Watches should fun. And this watch is fun. Yea Kermit!
Right?! A little reminder this whole watch this is meant to be joyful! 🐸 love this watch!
Hey Britt, Luv the fun and light-hearted review of the Oris Kermit. Frankly, with the 120 hours power reserve, it is good enough for me to own one. And I'm a sucker for titanium.
Oscar's part gave me a lot of tenderness...
Since you have Kermit, does this make you Miss Piggy?
😂 oh don’t flatter me! I WISH! I’d love a miss piggery version tho!
Great show WG! It’s all a great little gimmick ! I think it would be the 1st of the month everyday if I had this watch! One thing is watch youtube creators have learned is that CZcams don’t like Oris!!! Don’t know why but hey!
Love the Kermit, it's playful and fun, but not overdone. Great Episode btw glad you had fun with it like Oris did with the making of the watch. /applause
😂Amazing visit from Oscar and your conversation went flawless 👏 love this content ❤
🤣🤣 ahh BLESS! Thank you!!
All well said, Britt! Thanks so much. Also, looks and sounds like you’re recovering nicely from your bike accident. Close call, eh? Until my last bike accident a few years ago, I was an ultra-distance rider (did PBP twice), but after my near death experience, I’m now confined to my Peloton (which ain’t so bad either).
I loved this video! The Kermit is definitely not my style, too bold, but such a great collab and so much fun!. I would definitely want to try it on and take a look at it in person if I saw one in the wild. This is the kind of watch that people are going to ask you about.
Also, love the Clyde Frog reference.
Too funny! I like their 400 series movements but I’m a sucker for small seconds so I’ve got my eye on the new pointer date they came out with recently.
Oris > Omega. Love what they’re doing with the brand
That's an incredibly convincing Oscar voice
🤣 this is going to blow your mind but….. it wasn’t really Oscar! It was just me! Impersonating him!
Just such a brilliant review. Well done!
I love this watch! But not quite as much as I love the video you made about it 😅
As a side note, the purple Aquis Hölstein edition is amazrballs 🎉
We love you Gringaaaaa!!!!!!!
Stop it right now Luke!!! WE 💕💕💕 YOUUUU!!!
Lol this brightened my day! In all seriousness, I do love the ProPilot's marker at 12
Great video, although I'd rather go for a "normal" Oris. Since I just work 4 km away form the factory I really need to have a look.
Titanium case 🤤🔥
Right?! So dreamy !
the internet demands Watch Talks with Oris CEO! OK maybe just me lol
Heavy on the heartfelt Philosophy Britt. Great to hear you back on your A Game.
Love the watch but can't get down with that $4600 USD price. I understand it has an in house movement, but still. The GS SBGW287 I have is 4800 and has way more detail on dial and finishing than this.
You know! It’s true!!! It’s the top end of the budget for me and an oris! I think there’s a couple hundred extra on there for royalties. But 5 day power reserve is pretty dope!
And titanium of course!
@@BrittPearceWatches true the 5 days PR is dope. As for titanium, I just find it too light. I like having some steel heft from a watch, but am fine with it being light when it's something like a GShock or a Brew, or even my tank. But a sports watch like that, the titanium makes it feel like a toy. I've only ever tried on the NTTD for testing out a titanium watch and that was my take away. I still love this and that salmon/pink PPX, which has virtually the same dial color as the cream coral nomos which I want.
I attended the FY24 kings Jeweler watch fair, this watch peaked my curiosity… love it! Hoping for a lavender Miss Piggy dial in 24mm! Love your channel!
Funny skit😂 “i looooove trash”😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣 ahhh PLAYBOY HEAF! Thank you so much!
Very entertaining video, Britt! I tried this model on and found the legibility to be an issue for me. On the plus side, great power reserve and warranty.
Ahh the legibility is a bit tricky isn’t it! That’s one of my few complaints with this one!
That was hilarious 😂 Great job as always.
Hope your healing is progressing.
I like the watch and have considered buying it quite a few times now, but the price is what makes this difficult. $5k (or closer to $3.7k if you are comfortable second hand) is a lot to pay for a piece that I can't say goes with everything. I like quirky and have a connection to the watch with my mom passing 8 years ago and her being a Muppets fan. But unlike the Omega Silver Snoopy (which is my grail for a similar connection to my mom) I just think it goes a little too far out there for me to be comfortable with the cost.
You know! This is so fair! Really can’t argue with this. It’s definitely on the upper end of what I’d spend on an oris. 😅 it’d be second hand all the way for me tho!
I have seen the standard versions of the Pro Pilot and although the case and bracelet look great with a lot of though the dial just didn't work for me, it was just too flat. Now Kermit has offered his expert dial design this one works so much better, that dial pops in a way that the others didn't. I've yet to see one in the flesh but it's on my list to look at. This Oris and Kermit association could spawn a whole new collection.
Your reviews just put a smile on my face 🙂
The watch looks great to be honest, love the green dial with Froggie at the bottom 🐸
Oh BLESS! I’m so glad you enjoyed!! A fun watch needs a fun review! 🤣🐸
Get well soon! Your voice is returning to normal. I hope your jaw heals fast.
Ahh thank you so much! I am receiving this. I am feeling a bit better all the time! 😱💕
Really enjoyed your final thoughts...very well said!
So refreshing to watch a video like this. Great job Britt!
Always enjoy your videos, and the watch is great, that whole Oscar phone call was quite cringey.
I like the design, it's a bold colour. Maybe too bold for me. Waiting for the Big Bird yellow version to come out.
🤣🤣🐸 I’m waiting for miss piggy!
My watch dealer had just got this one in while I was shopping for my 50th birthday watch. I came very close to going against my better judgment and letting this be that watch. I ended on a Grand Seiko, but still think about the Kermit.
Ahhh no WAY! What GS did you get?!?! 😍😍 big congrats!
@@BrittPearceWatches SBGA413 Seems I like pretty watches.
It reminds me of the Nike phosfor green tennis shoes
Yes! 👏🏻
Would have been nice to hear what you thought of the price and how it compares to other watches, as far as price per value.
Informative and entertaining, great one Brit
Loving the lack of “wankyness” regarding this watch. Personally I love it
😂🐸 ahh it’s just such a fun watch isn’t it!
Clyde is clearly a frog of few words. One, exactly. And it wasn't a very nice word, was it? That's probably why we never saw Clyde on Sesame Street. Thanks for another super fun video.
Nice South Park reference
Ahhhh I’m so glad a few people got it! ;)
I loved to hate this watch. Then I tried one on and within 24 hours owned one. It’s so much fun and it felt like a good addition to the collection to sit next to my Cookie Monster
Great watch, great video. Spot on about this should be enjoyable and not as insufferably serious as some make it out to be! And, the date wheels! I concur. Farer can do it perfectly at a fraction of the price of…IWC, I’m looking at you. Oh, someone mention Rolex too???
World class grouch impression
Impression? That was really Oscar! ;)
Great video, the comment from Clyde at the end really got me 😂😂
I liked the subtlety 😜👍
🤣🤣🐸
Ha ha ha I love the muppet bit so cute and funny Britt your the best .I love thos watch Oris really did it right with this watch. Britt you need to make more muppets video laughed my ass off 😂😂👌
Sorry Britt, I can't..........................
🤣🤣🐸🐸🐸
From videos and photos I was a little underwhelmed but I had the opportunity to try one on and honestly it blew me away. I would have snatched one up on the spot but the price made me hesitant since the green would be hard to match with most of my outfits and if I'm spending that much money on a watch I want to be able to wear it at least 80% of the time.
You know! I sooo relate to this! I feel exactly the same!
I like this watch! At first this ProPilot X wasn't my favourite watch from Oris, a brand I love by the way. I also like the idea of Kermit on the date when and the cheerful colour of the whole dial. Kermit only appears once a month after all. The gimmick isn't overpowering as you rightly said.
Never trust a puppet with a unibrow or Oscar. Mwah. No but seriously, watch talk aside, good to see you working back to full fitness.
🤣🤣🐸 oh Oscar! He has no taste! 😅 hahaha and thank you!!! I really am getting there! It’s good to have more jaw movement again!
Love the south park reference
One of your best reviews. You are funny, insightful and, pretentious-free. Hey, kinda like the watch. Keep it up
🤣oh stop! This has made my day! Thank you sooo so much! 🐸🐸
Your Oscar sounds like Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town ❤
Love my Kermit rocking it today some comfy.
Love this collaboration! Incredible work from Oris as always
Right?! How awesome is this collab?! 🐸 now I’m waiting for the Miss Piggy version! 🐽
@@BrittPearceWatches I didn't even think of that! They obviously need you on the ideas team 😂
Excellent review
Weird Gringa is the best Gringa.
🤣🤣 tjis video was just a blast to make! Hopefully oris has a miss piggy watch soon! 🐷
BEST VIDEO YET-well done Britt :)
That was me at 2:24 😁
A great watch, perfectly designed and very generously equiped 👍🏻
🐸🐸 it is just ribbeting!
I think she has gone a Little Nutty ! 😂! Hey Brit ! Love Ya and Oscar !!!
También 😂 amamos tu canal 👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That’s the video that made me become a subscriber :-) great work
Welcome aboard! 🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️
Honestly, loved this review 🐸
