Bite the Bullet: Guns don’t always kill people, time always does.

Son Of A Gun watch made by Yvan Arpa for ARTYA Haute Horlogerie d'Art

Many high-end collectors are also gun lovers, delighting in the craftsmanship and attention to detail

of a high-end firearm. To celebrate this slightly strange marriage between Swiss high watchmaking

and firearms, Yvan Arpa for ArtyA introduces the Son of a Gun Watch.


A collector has ordered this exceptional timepiece from Yvan Arpa, creator and consultant in high

watchmaking for his brand ArtyA.


To debut the collection Artya has imagined a watch containing real bullets. With a bezel and inner

dial like a target sight, the piece showcases six 6mm Flobert bullets suspended in the dial almost like

the barrel of a revolver. Use of copper wire like dynamite wire and the iconic 47mm wide steel case

display Artya brand DNA.
