Oris Revives the Artelier Calibre 113 With a Remarkable 10-Day Power Reserve
The resurgence of mechanical watchmaking continues to excite collectors and enthusiasts, and few independent brands demonstrate thoughtful innovation quite like Oris. At Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, the company unveiled the return of a watch that has quietly become one of its most admired mechanical creations, the Oris Artelier Calibre 113.

Following the remarkable success of the Year of the Horse Limited Edition, which sold out within just twenty-four hours, Oris has reintroduced the timepiece that inspired that celebrated release. The revival of the Artelier Calibre 113 reflects the brand’s commitment to purposeful mechanical engineering and elegant design, delivering a watch that blends innovative complications with everyday usability.
At the heart of the Artelier Calibre 113 is the in-house developed Oris Calibre 113 movement, a hand-wound mechanical calibre designed to showcase the brand’s independent approach to watchmaking. This movement offers an impressive ten-day power reserve, equivalent to 240 hours of operation, allowing the watch to run for more than a week without requiring winding. The extended reserve is not only technically impressive but also practical for modern wearers who may rotate their watches throughout the week.
What makes this movement particularly distinctive is its non-linear power reserve indicator, a feature rarely seen in mechanical watches. Instead of displaying the remaining energy through a simple linear scale, the indicator becomes progressively more precise as the power reserve decreases, giving the wearer a clearer and more accurate understanding of when the watch will need to be rewound.
The Artelier Calibre 113 also incorporates a sophisticated business calendar complication that displays the day, date, month, and even the week of the year, offering a practical tool for professionals who rely on precise scheduling. Unlike many complicated calendar watches that require multiple pushers or recessed correctors, the entire system on the Artelier Calibre 113 can be adjusted through a single crown. This streamlined design reflects Oris’s philosophy of functional innovation, ensuring that mechanical complexity enhances usability rather than complicating it.
Encasing this advanced movement is a refined 43 mm stainless steel case that balances classic elegance with modern presence. The multi-piece construction is topped with a domed sapphire crystal treated with anti-reflective coating on the inside, ensuring exceptional readability while preserving the watch’s sophisticated aesthetic.
The transparent sapphire caseback reveals the intricate finishing and mechanical architecture of the Calibre 113 movement, allowing collectors to admire the gears, bridges, and technical craftsmanship that power the watch. The case measures approximately 13.1 mm in thickness and offers water resistance to 5 bar, making it suitable for everyday wear while maintaining a refined profile.

The dial design reflects Oris’s dedication to clarity and understated elegance. The Artelier Calibre 113 is available in two dial colors, a crisp white option that emphasizes the watch’s classical personality and a rich green version that introduces a modern, contemporary aesthetic.
Both designs feature applied indices that add depth and refinement, while the hour and minute hands are treated with Super-LumiNova to ensure visibility in low-light conditions. The small seconds subdial is positioned at nine o’clock, while the power reserve indicator sits at three o’clock, creating a balanced and highly legible dial layout that reflects the functional nature of the watch.
Oris has also carefully considered strap options to complement the personality of each dial. Both dial versions are available on a luxurious brown cordovan leather strap, a material prized for its durability, smooth finish, and long-lasting quality. The white dial model offers an additional option of a multi-link stainless steel bracelet, providing a slightly sportier interpretation of the watch while maintaining its refined character. Each strap or bracelet is fitted with a folding clasp designed for comfort and security, ensuring that the watch sits comfortably on the wrist throughout the day.
From a mechanical standpoint, the Oris Calibre 113 movement operates at a frequency of 3 Hz, equivalent to 21,600 vibrations per hour, and incorporates 38 jewels to reduce friction within the gear train. A stop-second function allows for precise time setting, a feature appreciated by enthusiasts who value accuracy in mechanical timepieces. The movement measures 34 mm in diameter and reflects the brand’s dedication to developing in-house calibres that deliver both performance and longevity.
Every Artelier Calibre 113 is delivered in a special wooden presentation box that reinforces the craftsmanship and heritage associated with the brand. Owners can also extend the watch’s warranty to five years by registering it through the MyOris platform, highlighting the company’s confidence in the durability and reliability of its in-house mechanical movements.
The new Artelier Calibre 113 was officially launched during Watches and Wonders 2026 and is expected to become available starting in May. Pricing has been positioned to remain competitive within the luxury mechanical watch market, with the leather strap versions priced at approximately $7,600 USD, while the white dial model on the stainless steel bracelet is priced around $7,800 USD. These prices reflect the watch’s impressive technical capabilities, including its in-house movement, extended power reserve, and complex calendar functionality.
The return of the Artelier Calibre 113 demonstrates why Oris continues to stand apart in the world of independent Swiss watchmaking. Rather than chasing trends, the brand focuses on thoughtful engineering and meaningful complications that serve a real purpose for the wearer.
With its elegant design, innovative power reserve display, and practical business calendar, the Artelier Calibre 113 proves that mechanical watches can still evolve while remaining deeply connected to the traditions of horology. For collectors who value craftsmanship, originality, and mechanical ingenuity, the watch represents one of the most compelling modern interpretations of functional luxury.
