Hi guys, first of all thanks a lot for all your support.
Many of you have ansked about the Arsenale watch... here we are!

Arsenale is inspired in the name and design by the Royal shipyard of the Serenissima Republic, known worldwide for the production of vessels and merchant ships. The finishes of the Arsenale 316L surgical steel cases recall the metal processing employed in the construction of submarines and naval armaments in the past centuries, in particular:
Arsenale Ardesia/Ardesia Cromo: 
the brushed and polish treatments reflect the techniques employed in the Arsenale of Venezia during WWI (XX Century) for the production of submarines and warships 
Arsenale Ardesia PVD:
the aged PVD finish recalls the metal processing of 17th century armaments, which made Arsenale the most renowned shipyard in the Old Continent. The edges of the watch are naturally faded through a craft process, simulating the normal aging.
The bezel rivets pay tribute to the same workmanship present in the pressure gauges while the domed sapphire crystal is inspired by the portholes of submarines.
We produced many samples in order to find the most experienced watch manufacturer to rely on for this project. The one we have chosen has produced luxury watches for well known brands. Quality is our priority. Every single stage of the production process is carried out with care and attention.
