ArtyA unveils an exceptional timepiece for Valentine's Day: a watch designed around a Wavy case made entirely of ruby-red sapphire. This unique piece combines artisanal craftsmanship with exclusive hand finishes and technological innovation to capture the very essence of passion within its case.

 

A light that beats to the rhythm of a heart.

At the heart of this achievement, an innovative integrated circuit illuminates the ruby case through fluorescence, powered by a light source. Activated in perfect synchronization, this light replicates the beating of a heart, symbolizing a love that is vibrant and timeless.

The interplay of light, amplified by the natural fluorescence of the ruby, creates a captivating visual show, oscillating between intensity and softness, offering a unique sensory experience.

 

A tribute to elegance and purity

Crafted from exceptionally high-quality ruby-red sapphire, the case stands out with its intense red reflections and transparency, enhanced by the interplay of light. Paired with a minimalist dial, it highlights the balance between the natural beauty of the precious stone and mechanical ingenuity.

The fluid, round design of the case evokes the harmony of emotions and embodies an aesthetic that is both romantic and modern. Its wavy curves, which give the Wavy case its name, make this design as elegant as it is intriguing.

 

The Stairway to Heaven movement stands out not only for its symbolic design but also for the fine craftsmanship of its finishes. Each watch is the result of meticulous work, with many steps performed by hand, showcasing the brand's exceptional watchmaking expertise. The balance bridge, shaped like a stairway, is carefully polished and hand-adjusted, as are the details of the minute bridges, where each element is sculpted and treated to offer a unique texture. This painstaking work is a testament to the pursuit of perfection, elevating the watch beyond its functional role, turning it into a work of art where love, emotion, and technique meet in perfect harmony.

A variation of its limited edition, this unique piece is enhanced by gold hands, brushed and diamond-polished, adding a timeless elegance and refinement to its exceptional design.
