Arsenale Meteorite

VENEZIANICO PRESENTS ARSENALE METEORITE

A fragment of infinity on the wrist, a dial forged by the cosmos. The Morelli brothers build a bridge between the stars and history, introducing a concept of elegance that defies earthly gravity.

A piece of sky. A fragment of the universe. A tangible symbol of human creative power. With Arsenale Meteorite, Venezianico unveils a timepiece that merges the evocative strength of celestial material with Venetian ingenuity and craftsmanship, paying tribute to the visionary greatness of the Arsenale of Venice — the first true industrial shipyard in Europe.

Essential, sophisticated, and timeless, Arsenale Meteorite celebrates the relentless spirit of research, innovation, and progress that has defined the Serenissima through the centuries. A tribute in steel and meteorite to the factory of wonders that, through pioneering production techniques, anticipated the industrial revolution and changed the course of history.

At the heart of the watch lies a dial crafted from authentic iron meteorite, a primordial material shaped over billions of years in space. Composed of iron and nickel, this cosmic matter traveled through the universe, cooling slowly to reveal the iconic Widmanstätten patterns—geometric textures that are unique, unrepeatable, and impossible to replicate through any terrestrial process.

Each dial is a one-of-a-kind piece of the universe, unveiled through a precise process of cutting, polishing, and acid treatment, before printing, applying the indexes, and the logo.

This cosmic window is protected by a thin transparent layer that preserves its aesthetic, while a polished steel bezel, engraved with a the “Greek key” motif reminiscent of the towers of the Venetian Arsenale, frames the composition under an anti-reflective sapphire crystal.

The 40 mm case in 316L stainless steel alternates polished and satin finishes, enhancing its modern lines through elegant contrast. The reduced thickness—only 9.95 mm—is made possible by the Miyota 9039 automatic movement, featuring no date and operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. This technical choice allows the meteorite to be mounted on a brass soleil base, creating visual depth without compromising wearability.

The integrated Canova Concept™ bracelet, entirely redesigned for a flawless fit, completes the silhouette of the watch, emphasizing the harmony between case and strap in a seamless, fluid gesture.

Mirror-polished Dauphine hands, treated with BGW9 Swiss Super-LumiNova®, add an extra touch of classic refinement and ensure optimal legibility even in extreme conditions. Every detail reflects a design philosophy that transcends trends, projecting the watch into a timeless dimension.

Arsenale Meteorite is not just a watch. It’s a bridge between past and future, between Earth and the stars. A fragment of infinity to wear every day — to carry not just the time, but the wonder of what humanity can create when it looks to the sky with vision and purpose.
