Strap:Brown Leather without Bund
Full Description

Our signature colour. We couldn’t resist.

A hardworking vintage-sized watch case with the blue-green-grey NIVO colour dial designed originally in Sussex in the interwar period as Night Invisible Varnish Orfordness - a paint colour designed for night bombers to mimic the colour and reflectivity of open water on a moonlit night.

Supplied on a pale genuine Alcantara strap to bring out the most of the dial colour, but all the other Arne straps will also fit if you prefer a darker brown option with or without a bund sleeve.
The name Arne has a fasciniating back story.

  • Warranty

    We design and re-design every component to make watches that are fundamentally fit-for-purpose, minimising or eliminating typical points of failure such as spring bars breaking, straps snapping, or watches leaking - all potentially catastrophic failures.

    Any watches damaged in service can be repaired quickly and economically at our in-house workshop in Poole and returned to service with the minimum of disruption.

    Not only is our servicing world class, the warranty has no small print. It’s honest, comprehensive, and straightforward. The whole watch is covered for 5 years, not just the movement. The only exclusions are accidental damage, the battery and wear & tear.

    THIS IS OUR TIME

    Rock climbing is incredibly personal for our ambassador Ethan Walker. Plenty of his friends specialise but he wants to be the best in every discipline of climbing he can
