The time traveler
OverviewAn identity that embodies an unalterable tradition, combining timeless values and inherited know-how, evoking an experience that stands the test of time with unrivalled elegance.
The Arthur Collection, named after the company’s founder Arthur Imhof, embodies a history of innovation and craftsmanship. A visionary, Arthur fused artistic creation with industrial production, creating genuine masterpieces revered for their design and materials.
Highly respected in the industry, Imhof’s influence spanned over a century. The company offered private label services to some of the most famous names of the day, such as Bucherer Group, Cartier, Bulgari, Tiffany, Chopard, Longines, Concord, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Girard-Perregaux. With the brand’s revival, new chapters are now unfolding with the arrival of exciting wristwatches for today’s discerning clientele.
Arthur Spirit
Imhof’s designers have studied every detail in the creation of the Arthur collection, thinking about everything from the pattern on the dial to the fit and comfort on the wrist.
It is in this way that the Imhof Arthur timepiece was imagined. The brief was to create a timepiece that would reply to today’s demand for a luxury sports watch while respecting the legacy of the Imhof story. Displaying the hours, minutes, seconds, and a date, this is not a complicated timepiece, but sometimes the simplest things are the most difficult to do right.
The Imhof Arthur embraces harmony on every level. Its diamond-patterned dial and applied indexes draw the eye into the dial, while its elegant stainless steel case, bezel, and bracelet catch the light with their carefully thought-out lines, angles, and surfaces. All these elements come together and sit on the wrist comfortably so the future wearers can enjoy their watch every day.
Heritage Aesthetics
The new creations are more than just timepieces; they are living tributes to the brand’s rich artistic heritage, carrying its spirit forward into a new era of horological excellence.
Every element on the dial speaks of purity and elegance. The baton-shaped hands and refined indexes stand in stark contrast, yet create harmony with the diamond motif, ensuring effortless legibility and timeless sophistication. With each meticulous detail, from the minute track to the carefully positioned logos, one can sense the unwavering dedication and passion that went into crafting these exquisite timepieces.
Attention to detail
DesignArthur strap
The bracelet features a patent-pending, fine-adjustment clasp system that allows the wearer to choose from six sizes without the need for any tools.
The Arthur models are fitted with interchangeable stainless steel bracelets and patented folding buckles that provide fine adjustment on the wrist for the perfect fit. This works by pressing the Imhof shield on the buckle that has six notches to tighten or loosen the bracelet.
Movement
The heartbeat of the Arthur timepiece lies within its selfwinding mechanism, a marvel of engineering that embodies the spirit of perpetual motion.
With each subtle movement of the wearer’s wrist, the oscillating weight spins gracefully around the watch’s movement.
This elegant dance serves a greater purpose, channeling the wearer’s energy into the mainspring, where it is stored and harnessed to power the intricate functions of the timepiece, which include central hours, minutes, and seconds, as well as a date that is displayed in an aperture at 3 o’clock.
Echoes of elegance past
The knurled bezel from Imhof’s historic Turtle clock provides a source of inspiration in the creation of the latest generation of Imhof wristwatches.
Around the dial of the clock were two rings that were knurled in a sunburst design. This unusual feature, drawn from the iconic Imhof Looping eight-day clock, now finds its place on the bezel of the Arthur timepiece and serves as a bridge between generations. It is more than just a design choice; it is a homage to the timeless elegance and ingenuity that defined Imhof’s historic creations.
The contemplation of purity & elegance
The sense of purity and elegance of the Arthur collection shines through with a dial that reproduces the diamond pattern found on the Imhof family crest.
As the light dances across the dials of the new Imhof timepieces, it reveals a beautiful diamond-shaped pattern that was taken from the original Imhof crest. This subtle yet intricate detail adds a touch of magic to the dial, captivating the eye and drawing it deeper into its mesmerizing depths. With each movement of the wrist, the diamond pattern shimmers and glimmers, infusing the timepiece with a sense of dynamism and life.
Heart of watchmaking
Each Imhof timepiece is crafted in Switzerland and is certified by the Swiss-Made label, a badge of honor coveted by watchmakers worldwide.
Founded in the La Chaux-de-Fonds, a historic town which is steeped in watchmaking tradition, the company has always been intertwined with the pulse of time itself.
Just as Arthur Imhof sought out the highest precision, the company continues to demand the highest quality mechanisms that offer the very best accuracy.
