Waiter, There Is Some Shit In My Artya Watch!
Straight up petrified dinosaur shit in a watch. Either it is the poor man's fossil accessory, of the edgiest piece of the Jurassic available. You'd actually be surprised how many people collect the substance known as coprolite. You have probably already guessed what it is. In his ongoing quest to shock, awe, and inspire, Yvan Arpa gives you the Artya Coprolite. Artya is his own brand. He is the guy who pretty much made Romain Jerome what it is. His new mission is to continue "remaking" the watch - with an artistic flare unparalleled by other contemporaries.No doubt that preference for the Artya Coprolite is an acquired taste. Not only is the dial material something you need to think kicks ass, but you need to stomach 50mm of it including the case on your wrist. Arpa has a fascination with decay. As such, the steel or bronze case here is done in a fashion that resembles highly weathered metal. When I first looked at the piece it seemed to resemble a watch I had seen elsewhere. When I fi

Hello.I am currently living in south Spain and on the usual watch hunt.I have noticed an original Omega Speedmaster Apollo 16 watch for sale in great original condition and with all paperwork and boxes.After some re-search these appear to be very rare and I cant find any for sale. Does anyone on here have more info, it appears about 100 were made?If there was one for sale now what would you expect the value to be on it?Thanks

116000 Lume
Hi there.I've restrained myself from posting on here as the question that I'm about to ask potentially could have been answered many times over.This is my first post, so please spare me... I'm curious to know the lume colour on the 116000. Specifically the Blue 3-6-9 dial.I've googled it up.I've searched it on this forum.I've yet to see one that comes with the blue chromalight lume as mentioned by a seller whom I might be dealing with for this piece.Is there such a thing as a blue lume for this 116000 (3-6-9 blue dial)?Or is this a production thing?The blue lume only came up from such and such year to present.Or it never came with blue lume?Again, I do apologise for wasting your time reading.But I do greatly appreciate your input (pictorial evidence will be more than sufficient).THANKS AGAIN!
