Description

Son of a Gun Russian Roulette Extreme A very strong in temporal design with a philosophical message. A game in which 5 of the 6 chambers are loaded sometimes life is not a game ArtyA was the first Brand to marry high end watchmaking with Firearms, the philosophical message that underline this marriage is you see the time but you dont know yours, so enjoy every minute of it . Guns dont always kill people, time always does. Enjoy life - every minute of it. Carpe Diem. This latest arrival in the Son of a Gun family contains five single real lucky bullet, set by hand, that rapidly spins around the dial with your every move. The classic 44 mm. ArtyA case with lateral ArtyOr inserts will leave no one indifferent. The multi-layered dial looks like the barrel of a revolver and the dangerous game of Russian Roulette. The Swiss made manually wound movement is partly revealed when peeking through the double layer barrel-holes. A third barrel is revealed at the back of the watch completing the pistol picture. The movement has been completely redesigned and skeletonized by Yvan Arpa. It is Unitas based but barely recognizable as such. The lateral inserts on the steel case, are manufactured with a patented new alloy called ArtyOr; a mix of gold, zinc and copper taken from used bullet cartridges.
