INSPIRED BY THE WATCHES WORN BY GREAT PIONEERS AND EXPLORERS OF THE MID 20th CENTURY

The Lhotse is a stylish and sophisticated sports watch, designed to be your everyday companion. Suitable for all occasions, whether you’re attempting your first ascent of Lhotse or having a gin and tonic in the lounge on your way there, Lhotse is the perfect watch. At 38.5mm in diameter, 47mm lug to lug and only 11.50mm in height, it sits comfortably on the wrist and is easy to wear.


LHOTSE X WEM LIMITED EDITION

Created to celebrate the launch of our first watch, the LHOTSE x WEM limited edition is a collaboration between Ocean To Orbit and Watch Enthusiasts Melbourne. As a show of appreciation to the members of our local watch community for their support and encouragement, we present this unique edition to the collection. Featuring a tuxedo dial in metallic blue and silver, this edition is limited to 50 pieces individually numbered and will include a custom-made NYLON strap, designed to complement this model.

ANOTHER WORLD RECORD AND THE JOURNEY CONTINUES!

As we grow, our goal is to continue to support people like Purnima and to give back to world.
In 2023 Purnima reached the summit of K2 wearing another prototype, this time of the WEM x Lhotse limited edition. Already a world record holder, being the first woman to climb Dhaulagiri, the world's seventh highest peak, Purnima is now the first woman to summit Mt Everest three times in one season, on the 12th 19th and 25th of May, again wearing the WEM limited edition prototype.
To continue our support and to help Purnima celebrate her incredible achievement, we have created a Nylon Adventure strap version for the Lhotse collection and will be donating 10% of all revenue generated from the sales of this collection to help Purnima to continue climbing and inspiring others, and a further 10% will be donated to Charites that help disadvantaged and orphaned Nepalese children.

“WE WANTED EVERY ASPECT OF THE LHOTSE TO BE UNIQUE.”

It was important that the purpose of this watch was communicated in every detail. The bold case back design features our logo in 3D as the centre piece and is engraved with the GPS location and meaning of Lhotse translated from Tibetan.

“BOLD INDICES AND DISTINCT HANDS WERE ESSENTIAL.”

With the Lhotse every detail has been carefully considered, we felt this was the only way to truly reflect the spirit of Ocean To Orbit.
