ArtyA AquaSaphir Dubai Edition
On the occasion of Dubai Watch Week 2025, and to honour its successful collaboration with retailer Ahmed Seddiqi, ArtyA celebrates the identity and prestige of the United Arab Emirates through two exceptional watch creations. A fusion of art, innovation, and respect for tradition, these pieces embody the pioneering spirit of the ArtyA Maison.
Artistic touch for infinite depth: A natural aventurine dial offering a unique sparkle reminiscent of the starry desert sky.
A symbol of national pride: The UAE flag is featured at 6 o’clock, facing an Arabic inscription meaning “Limited Edition, Dubai Edition,” rendered with the utmost finesse. Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9 hands and indexes for perfect legibility in all situations.
Unique Quadricolour Piece
After years of experience in crafting sapphire crystal cases, the Geneva-based watchmaker has reached a new milestone. Five years after introducing the first Bicolor NanoSapphire case middle, it now presents a single-block bezel in four different colours. These hues are precisely arranged to recreate the UAE flag, host of Dubai Watch Week.
Quadricolour NanoSapphire bezel in the colours of the Emirati flag. This represents a world first and a major leap forward in ArtyA’s mastery of the complex NanoSapphire material.
Deep black sapphire crystal case middle, which provides a homogeneous and contrasting base to highlight the bezel’s vibrant colours. Hand-finished sapphire to achieve perfect transparency.
AquaSaphir - Limited edition of 10 pieces
To mark its presence at the prestigious Dubai watch fair, ArtyA was eager to offer its local collectors a piece that pays tribute to their nation.
Entire case crafted in emerald green sapphire, an extremely hard material requiring high-precision artisanal polishing. A deep emerald green sapphire crystal, sharing the same chemical composition as a genuine emerald—a colour symbolic of the host country.
Retaining all technical properties of white sapphire, the case offers the legendary strength of this material while adding character and elegance. Manual polishing of the sapphire ensures its perfect transparency.
Exclusive automatic calibre
To power these two special editions, ArtyA relies on a movement from Manufacture La Joux-Perret. The G100 calibre, decorated in-house, was chosen to deliver the precision and reliability for which it is renowned.
