Year of the Horse Limited Edition Watches

The Oris "Fire Horse" limited edition watch, limited to 88 pieces, is based on the Artelier artist series. The dial features a deep red main color, complemented by two fiery red gradient sub-dials, and a galloping horse motif engraved above the power reserve indicator on the right side. The watch is powered by the Calibre 113 manual-winding movement, which provides an impressive 240 hours (10 days) of power reserve. To achieve this performance, it features an oversized mainspring barrel, occupying approximately one-third of the movement's volume. The movement utilizes a patented non-linear power reserve display, allowing the wearer to intuitively monitor the remaining power of the watch.

2026 marks Blancpain's 15th release of a Chinese calendar watch, which the brand has named "Galloping Horse." This timepiece features a platinum case paired with a salmon-colored grand feu enamel dial and is limited to 50 pieces. For Chinese people, the number "88" holds unique significance, a fact that Swiss watch brands are clearly aware of. Following Oris, another limited edition Year of the Horse watch, also limited to 88 pieces, comes from Hublot. The replica Hublot Spirit of Big Bang Matte Carbon Fiber watch utilizes carbon fiber and gold engraving art, with the "five-colored horse" motif on the dial meticulously hand-engraved and inlaid. It is powered by the HUB1710 automatic winding mechanical movement, which provides approximately 50 hours of power reserve.

Baume & Mercier has prepared a limited edition of 100 Clifton series chronometer watches for the upcoming Year of the Horse. This timepiece features a 40mm stainless steel case, a dark gray gradient dial, and gold hands. Its unique feature is that the even-numbered dates in the date window are represented by a horse motif (odd numbers remain Arabic numerals).

Girard-Perregaux presents the "Mysterious Horse" Tourbillon watch from its Golden Bridge collection for the Year of the Horse. The rose gold case of this timepiece is entirely handcrafted. In the center of the dial, two handcrafted horses are positioned at the right end of the mainspring barrel bridge and the left end of the tourbillon bridge, respectively. The watch offers personalized customization services, allowing wearers to choose their preferred color scheme from several enamel shades. Each color scheme is limited to 18 pieces and individually numbered.

The limited edition of 250 TAG Heuer Carrera Year of the Horse chronograph watches features a 39mm Glassbox case with 18K rose gold-plated hands and hour markers. As a special edition for the Year of the Horse, this timepiece features a warm, fiery-colored dial, reflecting the intensity of the "Fire Horse." The number "7" in the date window is replaced by the simplified Chinese character for "horse"—derived from the horse's position in the Chinese zodiac. The sapphire crystal case back depicts a white galloping horse, also bearing the number "7." This timepiece is powered by the TAG Heuer TH20-07 automatic chronograph movement, offering an 80-hour power reserve. The best TAG Heuer Carrera replica watches at captainthewatch.is.
