Oris Artelier Year Of The Horse: Time, Told In Full Gallop

The Oris Artelier Year of the Horse Limited Edition captures the untamed energy of the Chinese Year of the Fire Horse through a design that is both expressive and deeply symbolic. Rooted in the Artelier Calibre 113, the watch is awash in fiery dark reds and rich crimsons, a deliberate palette choice that reflects the horse’s association with enthusiasm, confidence and forward momentum. Limited to just 88 pieces a number signifying “double luck” in Chinese culture this Oris creation is as much a cultural homage as it is a collector’s piece, blending zodiac storytelling with the brand’s signature mechanical integrity.

At its heart beats the in-house Oris Calibre 113, delivering an impressive 10-day power reserve alongside indications for day, date, week and month. The standout feature is the non-linear power reserve indicator, where a galloping horse signals full energy and a resting horse marks its depletion a poetic, animated metaphor for time in motion. Encased in a multi-piece stainless steel case with a domed sapphire crystal and a specially engraved sapphire caseback, the Artelier Year of the Horse showcases Oris’ talent for transforming mechanical watchmaking into an emotive, narrative-driven experience.
