# Travel-Friendly Luxury Watches This Luxury Swiss Watch Makes Time Zone Adjustments a Breeze By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2017-09-22 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-swiss-watch References: [ablogtowatch](http://www.ablogtowatch.com/oris-big-crown-propilot-worldtimer-watch/) & [oris.ch](https://www.oris.ch/en/watch/oris-big-crown-propilot-worldtimer/01-690-7735-4063-07-1-22-72fc) While luxury Swiss watches have become the most desirable forms of opulent timepieces around, the fact of the matter is that while they look good on the wrists of well-heeled travelers, they're often a major hassle to adjust when you're flying around the world and traversing time zones. This is where the Big Crown ProPilot Worldtimer comes in. Developed by [Oris](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oris-propilot-date), this luxury Swiss watch features a gorgeous yet simple bezel-run complication that makes it possible to change the time via hourly increments. This is a major improvement to typical [luxury watch time adjustments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flieger-45g) that demand the wearer stop the mechanism altogether, or change the hours, minutes and date separately. For too long, luxury watches have come with a compromise attached, in that they are more difficult to adjust than even dollar-store digital watches. But the Big Crown ProPilot Worldtimer rubbishes that tradition, and in doing so is set to appeal to wealthy international travelers. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/watches) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Simplified Time Adjustment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop luxury watches with simplified mechanisms for adjusting time, catering to the needs of frequent travelers. - **Convenient Time Zone Selection:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create luxury watches with bezel-run complications that allow users to easily change time zones, minimizing the hassle of adjusting time when traveling. - **Streamlined Luxury Watch Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design luxury watches that combine elegant aesthetics with user-friendly functionality, eliminating the compromises associated with adjusting time in traditional luxury watches. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Luxury Watch Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovate and enhance the manufacturing processes of luxury watches to incorporate simplified time adjustment mechanisms, attracting wealthy international travelers. - **Travel Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and market travel accessories specifically designed to enhance the convenience of adjusting time on luxury watches, offering solutions for frequent travelers. - **Global Luxury Travel:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore partnerships and collaborations within the global luxury travel industry to create luxury watch collections tailored to the needs of discerning international travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Travel-Ready Sleek Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/club-sport-neomatik-worldtimer.md) - [Luxury Space-Themed Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-themed-timepiece.md) - [Textured Turbine-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oris-propilot-date.md) - [Futuristic Otherworldly Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spaceone-worldtimer.md) - [Daylight-Savings Intricately Made Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rcital-28-prowess-1.md) - [Global Timezone Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nik-bentel-studio.md) - [Chromatic Quad-Timezone Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wolbrook-pan4timer.md) - [Luxury Timepiece Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-tourbillon.md) - [Interchangeable Component Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nivada-grenchen-timepieces.md)
