The Precious Butterfly Engraved is the perfect balance between Art and watchmaking: a fully hand engraved case, a dial made with a real butterfly wing and the exclusive ArtyA 'Aion' Automatic Movement COSC certified.

And what more symbolic choice could have made Yvan Arpa at that time but the butterfly to depict the holy splendor of the masterpiece of Life on Earth?
