Arsenale Ultrablack is an invitation to explore the unknown, evoking the spirit of adventure and discovery that has energized Venice’s Arsenale for centuries. The caseback features an engraving of a space station immersed in the cosmic vastness, symbolizing a journey toward new horizons—just as the historic Arsenale served as the starting point for bold expeditions into uncharted territories. This link between past and future is expressed through the dial’s absolute black, which evokes infinity and the allure of the unexplored. In this way, Arsenale transforms into a modern, cosmic vision where the drive for knowledge meets ingenuity and courage, celebrating both tradition and innovation.
We chose Musou Black™, a paint capable of absorbing 99.4% of light, as the starting point for our exploration of the Arsenale Ultrablack. Through rigorous testing and in-depth analysis, we adapted this coating for use with brass, the metal we use for crafting the dials. The result is a watch with a refined aesthetic where minimalism and technique merge, achieving an absolute black that challenges the limits of perception and captures the essence of time.
Ultrablack dials are crafted through a meticulous process: brass disks are carefully prepared, and Musou Black™ paint, specifically adapted for adhesion to metal, is applied using a fine airbrush to ensure uniform and precise coverage. The drying takes place in a dust-free environment, as even the slightest contact can compromise the finish. Finally, the logo is added with great care, and each dial undergoes rigorous quality checks, as even a light touch can leave a permanent mark.
The essential design of the absolute black dial, achieved with Musou Black™ paint, enhances the minimalist and distinctive aesthetic of the watch, drawing attention without unnecessary details. The slim case and elegant lines give Arsenale a refined, contemporary character—ideal for those seeking a timepiece that combines understated sophistication with a bold style. When worn, the Arsenale Ultrablack is anything but overlooked: it’s the perfect watch for those who appreciate a modern look that conveys strength and class.
