Globetrotter

Like a finely crafted atlas, the Globetrotter worldtimer collection represents our planet.

new horizons

Globetrotter‘s dome is finely crafted with precise sculpting of the continents. The hand-painted seas and sculpted lands are a beautiful backdrop to the dual time zone display. The infinite arch above fixes their rotation. Arnold & Son pays tribute to John Arnold’s marine chronometers, used on English naval ships in the 18th century during their explorations around the world.

handcrafted earth

The hemisphere was the guideline for its design, and its surface area requires a certain amount of space. Above the equator are North America, Eurasia, and part of Africa, all represented with a wealth of detail. The continents form a single rhodium-plated, polished sculpture. In contrast, the Atlas, Hoggar, Himalayan, Rocky, Ural, and Alps Mountain ranges are given a matt finish. The oceans are hand-painted with several coats of blue-pigmented lacquer enriched with pearlescent powder to bestow exceptional depth and shine. The coastlines are lighter on the blue colour scale with added Super-LumiNova, so they stand out at night and further accentuate the relief of this small piece of manual craftsmanship.

The double tourbillon is a rare construction, even more so with this structural approach that meets aesthetic, historical, and horological objectives.
