ArtyA’s First Micro-Rotor Calibre and the new Luminity Wavy Collection

ArtyA, the avant-garde, family-run Swiss watchmaker recognized for its expressive, often unconventional horological creations of its founder Yvan Arpa, introduces the following evolution of its Luminity collection with a big replace: the launch of its first proprietary micro-rotor motion, the calibre AMR-02. Combining a visually open design with chronometric efficiency, this new assortment retains motion structure on the forefront, framed inside the model’s signature sculptural case, now obtainable in Grade 5 titanium and full sapphire.

The brand new ArtyA Luminity Wavy Assortment is available in the instantly recognisable ArtyA “Wavy” case, redesigned for this new sequence in 40mm diameter and 13mm thickness. Accessible in both full Grade 5 titanium (additionally supplied with black DLC coating) or full sapphire, the case’s natural, undulating contours create a fluid visible impression from all angles.

The titanium variant options full sandblasting and a DLC protecting coating (with hardness as much as 1200 Vickers), making it as resilient as light-weight. Sapphire editions are sculpted from one of many hardest minerals, with hand-polished surfaces reflecting mild throughout the contours of the case structure. Every case is fitted with triple anti-reflective sapphire crystals back and front.

The gathering gives two dial configurations. The primary is a full sapphire dial (clear, tinted, or NanoSapphire Chameleon), providing good visibility of the motion. Brushed and diamond-polished markers guarantee legibility regardless of the transparency. The second dial possibility incorporates pure stone, both meteorite or aventurine, into the centre part, mixing texture with mechanical efficiency. These variations preserve {a partially} open view of the motion.

The main target of the brand new Luminity Wavy fashions is the AMR-02, an automated motion made by the Swiss motion specialist Telos, with a tungsten micro-rotor, chosen for its mass and effectivity, which permits the calibre to stay ultra-slim at 3.6mm. AMR-02 gives an 82-hour energy reserve, supplied by the twin-barrel system, with parallel barrels utilizing longer, finer mainsprings to ship smoother, extra linear torque. This ends in a constant energy output. The motion operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations/hour.

The AMR-02 consists of 160 components, together with 30 jewels, and options decorations like perlage, rhodium-plated wheels, laser-engraved signatures, and black-polished screws. Bridges and the anthracite mainplate are hand-finished, with femto-laser detailing reinforcing the motion’s visible high quality.

The sequence is obtainable on a nubuck leather-based strap, closed with an ArtyA pin buckle, with or with out black DLC coating. The ArtyA Luminity Wavy Micro-Rotor is restricted to 99 items per configuration. Costs begin at CHF 17,900/EUR 19,100 for a titanium/black DLC case and clear sapphire dial variant and go as much as CHF 39,900/EUR 42,000 for the sapphire case and stone dial.
