Watches and Wonders 2026: Arnold and Son HM Pietersite.
This is a true novelty from Arnold and Son, this HM Pietersite dial, in rose gold ( limited to 8 pieces ) and in steel ( only 18 pieces ), both sharing the same dial, the only difference is that the small round markers and hands are matching the color of the case.
Pietersite is the name of a stone discovered in Namibia, whose accents and hues are truly spectacular.
The case is 39, 5 mm big, 7, 82 mm high, which is very good, in my opinion, even if I would have preferred one or 2 mm smaller diameter, but not a big deal.
The movement is, as almost always with Arnold and Son, nice looking. Nicely decorated, it is manual winding, beating at 21, 600 vph, and offers a power an autonomy of 90 hours. It also has the good taste to be relatively thin, as it is only 2, 70 mm high.
As quite regularly now, Arnold and Son is a brand which doesn't disappoint. This Pietersite is quite interesting, and well, not too expensive, for what it is, in terms of quality: 16 K CHF, in steel.
This is a brand I love more and more, all along these last years, and the HM Pietersite is one of the very few watches which really caught my attention this year.
Best,

with such unique dials
its nice to see they have fitted pearl dot minute markers and larger ones every 5 minutes

gold pietersite
amber

Yes, I saw the rose gold in person, yesterday, but I din't see the Amber. Cool, each of one is really eye catching.
they are sold under the chronometer range
not sure on the calibre being that good from what i can see
did they give you any details on your visit.

Thank you for bringing this watch to our attention; I was personally unaware of its existence.
The pietersite dial, the case shape, and the hands are all very charming.
I also really like that it has a manual movement, even though I'm not particularly fond of the shape of the escapement and gear train bridge with the three "bumps" for the three jewels.
And the price is indeed quite reasonable!
Thank you for the discovery.
Best, Emmanuel
That's a most interesting dial and the movement is lovely. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Really nice dial
Over the last year I have been really considering adding a stone dial … so eye catching
Thanks amanico for sharing this
Looks like a stunning piece. Thanks for bringing up for the forum's attention. Would have missed this otherwise.
I went here and there in the W & W corridors, hoping to find something which would sing to us...
This is really wonderful!
I'd love to get one in steel, but know it's
impossible. The simplicity of the two hander
and the (i don't even know what to call it)
hypnotic? dial work perfectly.
