Arnold & Son Chronometry

The Arnold & Son Chronometry Collection pays tribute to the brand’s historical expertise in marine chronometers while showcasing a refined balance of classical aesthetics and modern horological engineering. Each timepiece in this collection embodies precision, symmetry, and restraint—qualities that speak to the brand’s naval legacy. The designs are typically understated, with minimalistic dials, traditional Roman numerals or baton indexes, and subdials thoughtfully placed for visual harmony. Housed in precious metal cases and often paired with alligator leather straps, the Chronometry watches exude timeless elegance with a distinct nod to 18th-century instrument design.

What defines the Chronometry Collection is its technical purity and chronometric focus. Many models feature high-frequency, manually wound movements with complications that reinforce their historical narrative—like deadbeat seconds (true beat seconds), which tick in one-second intervals similar to a vintage marine chronometer, or double barrels for optimal power stability. These movements are developed entirely in-house, ensuring that every mechanical detail meets Arnold & Son’s rigorous standards. The sapphire casebacks reveal beautifully finished calibers with hand-chamfered bridges, Côtes de Genève stripes, and meticulously polished components—highlighting not just performance, but artistry.
