ArtyA Shining Star Tourbillon Set & ArtyA Sun Tourbillon – Unique Pieces 1/1

Posted on by

Designed by Yvan Arpa and engineered by MHC, Manufacture d’Horlogerie Contemporaine, these two new Son of Sound Tourbillon watches retain their unique aesthetic signature – a guitar-shaped case, patented by ArtyA. At six o’clock, these versions feature a flying tourbillon displaying the passing seconds. Opposite it, at twelve, is the barrel, with a fully redesigned bridge. The assembly is housed in a fully open-work X-shaped structure, inspired by the X-bracing used to support guitar bodies.

This structure houses the entire movement, allowing the Son of Sound Tourbillon to be hollowed out between each arm of the X. The watch is therefore literally transfused with light, revealing all the intricate details of its polished and satin finishes, and blending subtle shades of grey, black and ArtyOr.
