Honouring the past with a dial from the future

There are few nations as well-regarded for their design prowess as Denmark. Here at Arcanaut, we take our role as custodians of Scandinavian design seriously and want to pay homage to the clean lines and cerebral elegance of iconic objects that have built our homeland's international reputation over the years.

The Klint model is all about the purity of design. Using a crisp titanium dioxide composite, paired with tone-on-tone white lume and a subtly redesigned handset, we have created our most serene model yet. We hope you like it and the bold statement it makes on the wrist.

As with all of our proprietary composites, development is a long and often circuitous process that can occasionally result in minor tweaks to the design as we negotiate the materials we're using into shape. Stay tuned for updates should we decide to change any element of the Klint's aesthetics so you can make an informed purchasing decision when the time comes.

Description

What is Klint dial made from?

We mix titanium dioxide with an ultra-clear binding agent and form structurally consistent millable plates that are then cut into the traditional Arcanaut dial design before being treated with Super-LumiNova by our Swiss partners RC Tritec.

Case

316L stainless steel case, CNC milled north of Copenhagen with tolerances down to a micron (a thousandth of a millimeter or about the same size as a bacteria). The case has a matte micro bead blasted finish, with hand-polished highlights applied by our Danish watchmakers. As with all our watches, the case features our signature "Pentablock" crown, which is shaped to follow the form of the case perfectly.

Hands

Our laser-cut micro-welded steel hands are made and hand-finished in Denmark. The Klint model features our "chevron" hour hand for the very first time to improve legibility.

Straps

There are eight strap colours available for the Arc II case. You'll have a chance to choose your preferred colour after payment and before delivery (we'll contact you). Our strap types are Axe Red, Void Blue, Fett Green, Rex Brown, Kakarot Orange, Bondi Blue, Replicant White, and Black (just black).
