AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Arcaido: time carved in bronze. The Italian experience, since 1993, meets Swiss Made craftsmanship and a living material that develops a unique, unrepeatable patina as unique as the wearer.
In this auction we offer: Arcaido - Primo GMT Bronze - Swiss Made - Sellita SW330 Special Élaboré - Diver 300M - 42.5 mm - Deep Sea Bronze CuSn6 - Sapphire & Ceramic Bezel
42.5 mm Swiss Made GMT dive watch in solid deep-sea bronze CuSn6, unidirectional 120-click bezel with matte black ceramic insert, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, exhibition case back, decorated Swiss automatic movement with second time zone, 30 ATM/300 m water resistance, Italian-made leather strap. Luxury box with second NBR rubber strap and tool kit for interchangeability. New with papers and official 2-year warranty.
Primo GMT Bronze is a diver constructed with a material that almost no one truly uses: solid deep-sea bronze CuSn6, the naval alloy used to resist saltwater. Not a coating, not a surface treatment applied to steel: case, bezel and crown are bronze through and through, from the outer layer to the core.
This is what makes every specimen different from all the others. Bronze reacts to air, skin, and seawater, and over time develops a patina that no other watch will have: it darkens in the engravings, lightens where the cuff wear polishes it. Those who buy an Arcaido are not purchasing a finished object, but an object that continues to work.
The GMT function allows reading a second time zone thanks to a fourth central hand, paired with the 24-hour scale printed on the dial: home time remains on the main hands, the second time zone is read on the 24-hour scale, with quick adjustment of the hour and date. A tool for travelers who want to keep two times in sight.
The construction is that of a true instrument. Three hundred meters of water resistance, unidirectional 120-click bezel with matte black ceramic insert — raised numbers and scale, a material that resists scratching and staining — anti-reflective sapphire, black dial with applied indices and Swiss Super-LumiNova BWG9, white in daylight and blue in the dark.
The exhibition case back in 316L steel with sapphire allows viewing the Swiss automatic movement at work: circular-grain finishing, blued screws, and a customized IP black rotor that spins with every wrist movement. It’s a finish rarely found in this price range, and here it is not hidden under a closed case back.
The strap is Made in Italy leather, hand-stitched and interchangeable thanks to two removable end-links. In the luxury box you’ll find the second strap in NBR rubber and the full tool kit: the bronze tang buckle is a single piece and moves from one strap to the other with the included kit. The case and buckle are in the same bronze and develop the same patina together. Leather for everyday wear, rubber for water.

Seller's Story
Arcaido is our challenge: With 30 years of watchmaking expertise, we create high-quality, affordable products.
Arcaido became a reality in Balestra Studios, home to our family goldsmiths since 1993. Business-to-business watchmaking has been an integral part of our operations for decades. We have devoted thirty years to researching and driving the latest fashion trends, perfecting movements with the quality components – and sourcing the most finest materials. As the new millennium approached, our business offering expanded to incorporate design. We successfully started designing and manufacturing watches for clients worldwide. Hard work, innovation and passion for new ideas, thanks in part to the dedication our founder’s son, we continue to push the possibilities for our company.
From the Italian word “arca”, which means “ark”, as a metaphor of a vessel of past knowledge and new ideas.
