Arnold & Son

Arnold & Son celebrates the 2024 “Year of the Wooden Dragon” with its Luna Magna Red Gold “Year of the Dragon” watch, limited to eight pieces. The watch combines fine watchmaking, miniature sculpture, and gemstone craftsmanship, showcasing a dragon and a moon made from red gold (5N), available in two variations featuring pietersite or onyx. The Wooden Dragon symbolizes calm determination, questioning, control, negotiation, and generosity. The Luna Magna collection’s dial features a large pietersite or onyx disc with a white opal subdial for hours and minutes, adorned with a hand-engraved red gold dragon that wraps around it.

The Luna Magna Red Gold “Year of the Dragon” is driven by the A&S1021 calibre, a manually-wound movement offering a 90-hour power reserve, crafted entirely by Arnold & Son. It oscillates at 3 Hz and accurately tracks lunar phases, with only a one-day discrepancy every 122 years. The moon phase function can be adjusted directly via the crown, a testament to Arnold & Son’s watchmaking expertise. The watch also features a case back display for the moon’s age and is paired with an alligator leather strap with red lining.
