Arnold & Son Nebula 40 Steel, Blue Edition

Arnold & Son continues to push the boundaries of mechanical artistry with the launch of two new interpretations of its iconic DSTB 42 timepiece. The DSTB 42 Red Gold Mint Green and DSTB 42 Platinum Ascot Blue editions bring a fresh chromatic perspective to one of the brand’s most emblematic complications: the true beat seconds.

A tribute to the marine chronometers once supplied by John Arnold to the Royal Navy, the true beat seconds—also known as “deadbeat seconds”—is a rare and technically demanding feature. Unlike the sweeping motion of a conventional seconds hand, this mechanism causes the hand to jump precisely once per second, echoing the cadence of traditional precision timekeeping.

In these two new editions, Arnold & Son elevates the complication with bold color and refined materials. The Red Gold Mint Green model features a vibrant mint green dial housed in an 18K red gold case, while the Platinum Ascot Blue edition pairs a deep blue dial with the cool elegance of platinum 950. Both dials are grained for a rich, light-catching texture and are punctuated by a white opal subdial for hours and minutes, offset at 5 o’clock.

The true beat seconds mechanism is fully visible on the dial side, supported by three openworked bridges crafted in solid gold—red gold for the Mint Green edition and white gold for the Ascot Blue. The seconds hand travels along a railway track between 9 and 12 o’clock, orchestrated by a dedicated mechanism that mimics the precision of an escapement. The anchor-shaped counterweight, a nod to Arnold & Son’s maritime heritage, adds a poetic touch to the technical display.

Powering both models is the in-house A&S6203 automatic movement, beating at 4 Hz and offering a 55-hour power reserve. The movement is meticulously finished with Geneva stripes, perlage, polished angles, and a 22K gold oscillating weight.

Each watch is paired with a hand-stitched alligator leather strap—green for the red gold version and ink blue for the platinum—and secured with a matching pin buckle. Both editions are strictly limited to 18 pieces worldwide, underscoring their exclusivity and collectability.

With the DSTB 42 Red Gold Mint Green and Platinum Ascot Blue, Arnold & Son reaffirms its commitment to blending horological innovation with bold design. These timepieces are not only feats of mechanical engineering but also vibrant expressions of individuality and craftsmanship.

The Moritz Grossmann GMT Guilloche is a celebration of global exploration and fine German watchmaking. Inspired by the colors of nature and the rhythm of travel, this dual time zone watch is available in two striking dial variants: matte green, evoking serene meadows and hidden coves, and vibrant orange, reminiscent of the glow of a setting sun.

Dual Time Functionality

Designed for the modern traveler, the GMT Guilloche features a 24-hour time zone ring encircling the dial. A distinctive arrow-shaped hand tracks a second time zone, offering intuitive day-night orientation. Local time is displayed via central hour and minute hands, with a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock. A dedicated crown at 10 o’clock allows seamless adjustment of the second time zone without affecting the main time.

Masterful Craftsmanship

Each dial is hand-engraved using the traditional guilloché technique, creating intricate geometric patterns that shimmer with light. The green dial is paired with blued steel hands, while the orange dial features polished steel hands—both handcrafted in Glashütte.

Engineered for Precision

Inside the watch beats the calibre 100.8, a manually wound movement crafted in-house and regulated in five positions. It features 253 components, 26 jewels, and signature Grossmann innovations including the 2/3 plate with raised gold chatons, cantilevered balance cock with micrometer screw, and a separately removable winding mechanism. The second time zone mechanism is seamlessly integrated on the dial side, ensuring precision and harmony.

Limited Edition

Encased in stainless steel and fitted with a hand-stitched black alligator leather strap, each GMT Guilloche model is strictly limited to 8 pieces worldwide, making it a rare collector’s item.
