The Arnold & Son TE8 Métiers d’Art II Timepiece

Prestigious watchmaker Arnold & Son has created a very special limited edition collection called TE8 Métiers d’Art II.

This exquisite watch features a 44mm 18-carat rose gold case, with AR-coated sapphire crystal and water resistant to 30 meters.

At its heart lies a Swiss hand-wound & Son in-house tourbillon caliber A&S8000 with 19 jewels, beating at 21,600 vph and with enough power reserve for up to 80 hours. What makes this movement so special is its unique English design: the barrel bridge has a ¾ wave-shape, the tourbillon and motion-work bridges are triangular, and even the wheels are shaped with a distinctive three-spoke design. The movement boasts an amazing level of polish and is hand engraved by Arnold & Son’s master engraver, who actually created a new engraving pattern especially for this model.

The Arnold & Son TE8 Métiers d’Art II has a black open dial and it comes on a hand-stitched black or brown alligator leather strap with 18-carat rose gold buckle. Only eight of these fantastic watches are set to be released.
