ArtyA Purity Tourbillon Sport Edition

Breaking the boundaries between traditional watchmaking and modern artistic expression, ArtyA introduces the ultra-exclusive Purity Tourbillon Sport Edition. Crafted in a highly durable, 44 mm Wavy sapphire case that completely exposes its hand-finished skeleton movement, this 9-piece limited edition offers a striking aesthetic that can be transformed at will through a vibrant new color concept.

Manufacture architecture

At the heart of the Purity Tourbillon Sport beats an exclusive calibre entirely manufactured by ArtyA. Full skeleton. Double parallel barrel. Hours, minutes and seconds are displayed centrally. The seconds can also be read directly off the flying tourbillon, at the very heart of the mechanical spectacle.

An 18 mm flying tourbillon

The ArtyA flying tourbillon measures 18 mm in diameter, placing it among the largest in current high-end watchmaking. This scale reflects a deliberate mechanical choice: a larger cage that improves the dynamic stability of the assembly and gives the movement shock resistance that exceeds industry standards. The tourbillon completes one rotation in 60 seconds and beats at 4 Hz, 28,800 vibrations per hour, a remarkable technical achievement for a tourbillon of this diameter.

The variable-inertia balance wheel completes the system: precise regulation, resistance to vibrations, longterm chronometric accuracy. The double barrel delivers a 70-hour power reserve.

Finishing : every edge is a signature

The bridges, subjected to advanced skeletonisation, have been crafted with a more pronounced bevelling: each edge is hand-finished and polished until light reflects off it with absolute clarity. An exercise in patience and mastery that transforms each bridge into an autonomous sculpture.

The ArtyA-designed barrels feature personalised engraving, a detail that signs the interior of the movement as a work in its own right. Nothing is concealed. Everything is claimed.

The Wavy sapphire case

The total transparency of the Wavy case is not a visual artifice. It is a philosophical stance: to make visible what is ordinarily hidden. The skeleton movement, the suspended tourbillon, the hand-bevelled bridges, the engraved barrels, all are offered to view without reserve, as though the watch itself refused to keep secrets.

An exceptional material

Sapphire has a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale (approximately 1,800 Vickers) and unrivalled optical purity. The third hardest mineral after diamond (10) and moissanite (9.5), it offers scratch resistance that places this case in a category of its own.

Available in 44 mm, the Wavy case suits every wrist without ever compromising on visual impact. Screwed open sapphire caseback. Sapphire crown. Each case is individually machined and polished to ArtyA's quality tolerances.

The sapphire used by ArtyA is among the purest employed in high-end watchmaking to date. It is an Absolute Sapphire© selected for its perfect transparency.

Colour as a language

The Sport Edition introduces colour not as decoration, but as a language. The caseback gaskets, visible from the side, provide a strong and customisable chromatic signature. Four expressions at launch: deep red, luminous orange, deep blue, electric turquoise.

Transformation at will

The caseback gasket and strap can be changed at any time at an ArtyA retailer. A single piece can thus move from one colour to another as new colours become available, gasket and strap always matched. Each new configuration gives the watch a distinct visual identity, with no intervention on the movement or the sapphire case.

Philosophy of form

The circle is the guiding figure of this movement. A universal shape, it carries within it the notions of completeness, eternity, and original perfection. It dictates the design of the tourbillon, the layout of the bridges, and the silhouette of the case. At ArtyA, aesthetics are never separated from meaning.

We designed this piece for those who do not choose between elegance and performance. The Purity Tourbillon Sport is not a sports watch with a tourbillon: it is a manufacture tourbillon that fully embraces the contemporary world, with the same self-evidence it would command in a fine watchmaking salon."  Yvan Arpa.

A Watchmaking Declaration

Some watches tell time. Others transcend it. The Purity Tourbillon Sport Edition belongs to the second category.

The direct heir to the Purity Tourbillon, this Sport Edition is the fruit of a paradox elevated to philosophy: marrying the extreme delicacy of a manufacture tourbillon with the assertive power of a fully sapphire Wavy case. This is not an evolution. It is a declaration. ArtyA has never had to choose between watchmaking art and contemporary expression: it demands both, simultaneously, without compromise.

This is the watch for those who refuse to choose. For those for whom haute horlogerie is not a heritage to be worn with deference, but a conviction expressed with freedom.

Four Expressions. One Conviction.

Each piece is delivered in the configuration chosen at the time of order, with matching caseback gasket and strap. The caseback gasket and strap can be changed at any time at an ArtyA retailer, giving the watch an entirely new look with every new colour.
