Once upon a time ...
ARC II — Fordite Groovy "Ice Veins"
The chilly wastelands of faraway planets where even the atmosphere snaps with cold - say hello to the "Ice Veins" Fordite watch. This timepiece does more than just tell time; it opens a window to the mysterious charm of the universe's coldest spots.
The dial blends frosty whites deep blues, and fiery reds to imitate the natural patterns in old ice sheets. It captures the spirit of frozen power running through an icy planet's heart. Every part is giving you the feeling of looking into a glacier's core where the universe's untold secrets stay frozen in time.
To wear "Ice Veins" feels like having a bit of the universe's coldest scenes on your wrist. It reminds you that even in the toughest places, beauty and life keep going - frozen but lively, cold but full of energy. Enjoy this piece's cool style and pull, and let it take you to the farthest parts of the ice-covered universe.
ARC II — Fordite Groovy "Deep Space Worm Shenanigans"
At the very edges of the known universe, where no creature we would recognise as such dares to tread, multi-coloured plumes of space dust, so thick and heavy they form cliffs and valleys through which rivers of cosmic juice flow, are populated by squishy Deep Space Worms, known for their interstellar shenanigans...
As you know, team Arcanaut likes to travel through space in search of tales anew. On one such deep space jolly, the trio happened upon said worms, who quickly became fast friends with our intrepid travellers (even if James ate one or two of them before he realised they were sentient).
And so team Arcanaut created a dial in their honour. The many cosmic blue divets on this dial recalled the wormholes created by our slippery friends when they burrow from one part of the universe to another.
ARC II — Fordite Groovy "Klingili"
The bells, the bells! Oh, how they ring! Their terrifying cacophony spills throughout the city by night when its denizens want nought but to sleep. Who is that man that rings them so? What is he? A cruel, twisted, wretch, whose screams amount to but a whisper as they catch in his gnarled throat. He has but one way to share his pain — through the incessant (and inappropriately timed) ringing of bells.
Is he a monster or is he a messenger? Perhaps Old Klingili is somewhere between the two. Feared and revered by the people who live and work within earshot of his towering abode, perhaps one day he will descend to the streets and tell us all his tales of woe and wonder. Until then, we have but the bells. Oh, how they ring…
