Arnold & Son Longitude Titanium: Where elegance meets innovation.

Sailing the high seas reinvented
Arnold & Son, renowned pioneers of classic watchmaking, explore new horizons on the watchmaking map with their latest creation.

Longitude Titanium’s vertical satin-finish dial subtly extends the texture of the bracelet, sublimated by the polished edges of the links. Featuring a power reserve indicator at 12 o’clock and an imposing seconds counter at 6 o’clock, this timepiece pays tribute to the heritage of John Arnold’s marine chronometers and their revolution in ocean navigation.
A tribute to marine ingenuity
John Arnold’s marine chronometers were renowned for their simplicity and functionality, perfect for the rigors of the high seas. Longitude Titanium, a contemporary interpretation of his work, seamlessly fuses this naval heritage with sleek design and highly resistant materials. The movement’s “chronometer” certification adds an essential dimension to this heritage, recalling Arnold’s relentless quest for precision.
Comfort and sophisticated elegance
Inspired by the lines of contemporary sailing boats, Longitude’s titanium case features ergonomic curves for optimum comfort. Every detail, from the domed links to the polished and satin-brushed finishes, reflects the aesthetics and ingenuity of ocean sailing. Supplied with an integrated titanium bracelet and an interchangeable rubber strap, Longitude Titanium combines luxury and practicality.
Aesthetics and watchmaking heritage
Longitude Titanium’s dial combines aesthetics and history, with luminescent indexes evoking the links of the bracelet. The dial’s vertical indications, such as the power reserve indicator at noon and the imposing small seconds at 6 o’clock, recall the aesthetics of John Arnold’s marine chronometers, which established this layout as a standard.
A palette inspired by the Cornish coastline
The Longitude dials are inspired by the landscapes of John Arnold’s native Cornwall. The golden sandy hue of “Kingsand”, a limited edition of 88, captures the spirit of the places that shaped the history of ocean sailing.
A legacy of innovation
Longitude Titanium houses the new COSC-certified A&S6302 caliber at the heart of its movement. Its navigation-influenced design features a 22-carat gold oscillating weight engraved with sextant-like graduations. The meticulous finishing and 60-hour power reserve testify to Arnold & Son’s exceptional watchmaking expertise.
Mechanical perfection
The A&S6302 caliber, entirely developed and manufactured at the La Chaux-de-Fonds factory, embodies mechanical excellence with finely beveled bridges adorned with the distinctive “Rays of Glory” motif. Featuring a large barrel and a 4Hz oscillation frequency, this movement guarantees unrivalled precision and reliability, perpetuating John Arnold’s heritage in the world of luxury watchmaking.
