Williams F1 would like to congratulate its official watch partner, ORIS, for winning one of the most prestigious design awards for the ORIS BC4 Flight Timer watch.

The “Red Dot Best of the Best” design award is regarded as the world’s most coveted and acclaimed international design award. The ceremony itself was held in Essen, Germany, and attracted over 1,200 designers from 34 countries worldwide.

Along with ORIS, 48 other companies won a “Best of the Best” award this year, including another AT&T Williams partner, Philips, Apple, VW and Sony.

On collecting the award on behalf of ORIS, Product Development Manager, Ralf Hilbich, commented, “It was absolutely amazing to be a part of the Red Dot awards ceremony. To sit in the front row of an auditorium packed with more than 1,000 highly regarded designers really made me realise how special the BC4 Flight Timer  must be to win such an award.  

"It was really interesting to see what other companies and innovative products had won awards, all of which were voted for by a panel of international judges. When I went up on stage to collect the award it was a very exciting moment. In the background, a video of the BC4 Flight Timer was playing to show the rest of the audience the special features and explain why it had been chosen to be one of the “Best of the Best.”
