Celebrate Switzerland  with new skeletonized ArtyA movements

Quality and Authenticity before Quantity

The ArtyA Trademark is synonymous with highest Quality, Innovation, Creativity and Avant Garde Concepts.

All ArtyA Products are created with passion and love exclusively by Yvan Arpa and skill Master Watchmakers with carefully selected best possible existing materials and highest levels in savoir faire.

We were already sculpting and hollowing out movements back in 2009,” explains Yvan Arpa. “For us to move into skeletonization meant doing it our own way, whilst still being affordable. Many brands plunged into pulling off superlative achievements that are sadly well out of the reach of common mortals. We wanted to show that we could offer something unique and creative, with a great story – and without it breaking people’s budgets.”

After the success of the Shams (Sun in Arabic) launched in 2015 with many versions sold out due to the limited editions concept of ArtyA Watch Brand,

Yvan Arpa has decided to launch 2 totally new designs of skeleton movement Unitas based.

The first one is very logical after the Sun (Shams) and represent A Star, with a very nicely decorated movement.

A star on the wrist

The aim of a skeleton is to reveal the movement, workings and mechanical beauty in all their glory. But that requires light. What better source of light could there be than a Star? Once again, ArtyA reconciles extremes and opens up a new creative path, combining a movement clad in the absolute minimum with all the warmth of a life-giving heavenly body.

There are different versions on offer, all in limited editions. They share the same 44mm steel, PVD or Gold case, as well as a Swiss Made movement with a 52-hour power reserve. The skeleton – the watch’s main feature – varies depending on the different models, each with a different PVD treatment in 3 possible colors, Gold 5N, Steel or Black. The particularity is here that to emphasize the strenght of this product  the 10 rays of the Star are in another color matching the lateral inserts of the high end geneva made ArtyA case.

This type of finish allows ArtyA to present a wide choice of colours, satisfying every possible whim of gentlemen and ladies alike.
