Limited Edition of 1000 pieces.. Oris Watch Culture Dexter Gordon Limited Edition. 01 733 7721 4083 LS.. This is not the first time that Oris have released a limited edition musically inspired timepiece but we expect the new Oris Dexter Gordon Limited Edition watch to be just as popular as the rest. For those who are not familiar with Dexter Gordon, he is considered one of the greatest twentieth century Jazz musicians to have existed. He was born in 1923 in Los Angeles and was incredibly close to his father who became one of the very first African American physicians whose patients included renowned Jazz musicians Lionel Hampton and Duke Ellington. From a young age, Dexter Gordon quickly displayed musical talent and learnt the clarinet at 15 and then the saxophone at 17, an instrument that would later make him a legend.. Throughout his long and incredible career, Dexter Gordon recorded and performed with many iconic musicians and became himself an inspiration to those alike. As he got older he even tried his hand at acting and was even nominated for an Academy Award for his role in the 1986 film Round Midnight. The new Oris Dexter Gordon Limited Edition watch does a fantastic job of celebrating the life of such a talented musician. The designers have included some exquisite subtle touches into the design of the watch to make it a true novelty such as the saxophone reed shaped indice at 12 o clock and the ‘Long Tall Dex’ reference engraved on the case back which recalls the jazz player’s nickname.
