ARTYA
CUMBERE TOURBILLON
The new Cumbere Tourbillon is undoubtedly the most
avant-garde watch in the entire Swiss watch business.
Well-known industry maverick Yvan Arpa, founder of the
independent ArtyA brand, unleashes a one-of-a-kind model
with a powerful character. Delicately hand-carved in the
exclusive ArtyOr alloy, this Cumbere Tourbillon is shaped
like a guitar. The baguette-type movement equipped with a
flying tourbillon appears at the centre of an entirely skeleton-
worked X-shaped structure. This light-flooded watch thus
reveals all the subtle details of its Haute Horlogerie finishes,
notably including hand bevelling and artisan-style ageing of
the engravings. This one-off piece is the ultimate embodiment
of what happens when art meets luxury.
