Explore The Elegance and Intricacies of the Venezianico Arsenale Platino Watch

Venezianico, a young and emerging independent brand, resonates profoundly with narrative. In fact, the heart of its charm lies in its proud Venetian roots and strong connections to the culture, history, and landmarks of the ‘City of Bridges.’ Each release from the brand comes with a robust backstory – encapsulating the essence of Venetian heritage and making the wearer a part of its cherished narrative. As the brand expands, its latest release, Arsenale Platino, may diverge slightly from the usual overt Venice-themed design flourishes. However, it remains firmly rooted in its charm and thoughtful design ethos, making the tale of Venice heard beyond its physical boundaries. The Arsenale Platino stands out with its well-proportioned case, measuring at 40mm wide and just shy of 10mm thick. The case does not overly dominate the wrist, making it comfortable for daily wear. The design incorporates Venetian touchpoints, like the Greek key motif atop the towers of the city’s Arsenale shipyard. Boasting a split smooth-and-fluted bezel and an ultra-wide tapering case side chamfers, the watch displays an aesthetic reminiscent of sport watches. It equivocates hints from brands like Christopher Ward, Czapek, and Girard-Perregaux Laureato but sets itself apart with its vibrant and ornamental demeanor. The Arsenale Platino’s case side boasts a narrow mid-case band that gives the watch a slim, sleek feel, enhancing its elegant appeal. And despite its screwdown crown, Venezianico rates it for 50 meters of water resistance - a subtle hint towards the city’s affinity with water. Finally, let’s talk about its center of attraction - the dial. The watch employs a similar process to 2024’s Venezianico Nereide Aureo. The brass dial base is sunburst finished and galvanically plated with precious metal - platinum. All of this culminates to create not just a watch, but a piece of Venetian artistry rendering timeless elegance and charm.
