The Bulova Super Seville Precisionist 97B242 Year of the Horse is a limited edition created to celebrate the arrival of2026, known in the Chinese calendar asthe Year of the Horse. The watch’s design is inspired by the mythical winged horseQianli, a symbol of strength, courage, and beauty, which, according to legend, can travel up to 500 kilometers in a single day.
The most striking feature of the watch is the dial in the traditional Chinese colors of red and gold. Its center is adorned with a motif of a rearing horse surrounded by decorative floral elements, symbolizing wealth and prosperity. The gold elements also symbolize the prosperity and good fortune of the New Year, while the red background references the untamed strength and tenacity of the legendary Qianli horse. The result is a striking dial that gives the watch a distinctive character.
The unconventional dial is protected bya sapphire crystal with an internal anti-reflective coating. For better readability in low-light conditions, the hands and hour markers are luminescent.
The TV-shaped case draws inspiration from the legendary Bulova Super Seville Day Date models from the 1970s. It is dominated by a distinctive fluted bezel, which is one of the most recognizable features of the entire collection. It is made of steel with a gold IP finish. The case flows seamlessly into an integrated steel bracelet, which underscores the watch’s elegantly sporty character.
The watch’s caseback bears an individual limited edition number and a stylized Chinese character for the horse.
The watch is powered by a high-frequency quartz (HPQ - high-precision quartz) movement operating at a frequencyof 262 kHz—eight times higher than that of standard quartz movements (32,768 Hz). This ensures high accuracy. Another interesting feature is the smooth movement of the second hand, which is typical of mechanical movements, and greater resistance to temperature fluctuations. The movement features adate display at the 3 o’clock position. A magnifying lens (cyclops) ensures better readability.
The watch is water-resistant to 30 m, so it can handle normal contact with water while washing hands or in the rain. The TV-shaped case measures 38 mm, making the watch suitable for both men’s and women’s wrists.
The model is limited to just 888 pieces worldwide. In Chinese culture, the number 8 is traditionally associated with luck and prosperity.
The Bulova Super Seville Precisionist 97B242 Year of the Horse is not just another addition to the Super Seville collection. It is a collector’s edition that combines iconic retro design, modern Precisionist technology, and the rich symbolism of one of the most significant signs of the Chinese zodiac.
The watch is available in a set with one of the Bulova Super Seville Mini ladies’ models, making it a perfect gift for an anniversary, wedding, or other special occasions.

The story of the Bulova brand begins in 1875 and has its roots in Bohemia. The founder was a Czech native Josef Bulova, who founded the J. Bulova Company in New York. He managed to build a large watch factory. In 1912, production was moved to Biel, Switzerland. In addition to the development of technological innovations, the company also scored in the field of marketing. She was the first to use television commercials.
Bulova achieved the greatest success in the development of electronically powered watches. The highlight was the introduction of a system with a tuner called Bulova Accutron. Another astronaut, David Scott, took care of another legendary moment. During the Apollo 15 mission, he took the Bulova Chronograph watch for a walk on the moon.
The Bulova brand is not idle and continues to offer top products in the field of precision. The offer includes a high performance quartz movement operating at a high frequency (262 kHz) with an accuracy of about 10 s per year, or the Curv movement, which is also the first curved movement with a chronograph in the world.
