Ep. 127: A Conversation with VJ Geronimo of Oris

Today on the podcast, Zach Weiss and Blake Malin are joined by VJ Geronimo, CEO of Oris North America. Oris has grown substantially in recent years, going from a niche brand to a much more prominent player in the watch world in a short time, thanks to some great designs and a handful of hit watches. Here, VJ discusses the long history of Oris as an independent brand, the many meaningful partnerships Oris has forged, a very cool series of limited edition jazz inspired watches, and much more.
