ArtyA is the specialist in high quality watch cases made entirely of sapphire. This know-how is used in the brand's main collections such as Son of Earth, Son of Gears, Son of Sea, Son of a Gun and high complications. After years of research and development, ArtyA is proud to present a new world first: NanoSapphire cases that are entirely two-tone in the mass !
To achieve this ArtyA has used a high temperature multi-component combination of two main oxides - SiO2 and Al2O3. These oxides are key components of most natural gemstones. A temperature of 1700°C (compared to 700°C for glass) is required to synthesize this material. ArtyA was able to adapt this technology to create an extremely hard and difficult to machine homogeneous material specifically optimized for watchmaking and thus became since 2017 the first company in the world to use it in a watch case in addition to our pure sapphire collections.
NanoSapphire has an incredible hardness, 7 on the Mohs scale, which is much higher than glass (5 on the Mohs scale), this guarantees the durability of this beautiful material that plays with light.
Available in 39 , 41 and 46 mm
This innovative world first is available in several of our iconic collections:
NanoSaphir
Bicolor
World Premiere
These watches don’t simply reproduce the design, style and colour of a butterfly. Under the strict control of the relevant authorities, and with their full consent, artist D. Arpa-Cirpka successfully incorporated genuine butterfly wings, tobacco leaves, natural pigments, gold leaves, and many other naturals elements into the dial to create ever more unique art pieces. All of ArtyA’s DNA is distilled in these timepieces: unique, tailor-made watches that are highly creative – and completely unprecedented in the field of watchmaking. Today we are proud to present them with this new two-tone case in Nanosapphire to make it even more exclusive
