Arcanaut ARC II — Bonehead
It's Lume, But Not Like You've Seen It Before...
Introducing the Bonehead, named after the marrow-esque pattern of the dial...
The Experimental Collection Concept
Sometimes we have some pretty crazy ideas that take a long time to bring to life. We've decided to pursue these ambitious projects under the "Experimental" heading, because, truth be told, we're not entirely sure what we're going to discover in the process...
Everything in the Arcanaut Experimental Collection is produced in very small batches. For our inaugural Experimental releases, we've decided to make 33 pieces of both models. This enables us to plan our production timeline more efficiently and free up more time for creativity.
The Bonehead
The Bonehead concept is one of our premier novelties for 2024. This and the Tiger Sh'Arc series are completely original, but take the Arcanaut mantra of discovery in different directions.
For the Bonehead, we wanted to discover what would happen when we unleashed the Badger with a series of specially created electric blue-lume discs, a batch of aerospace-grade aluminium foam, and a big tub of industrial resin.
The result was so exciting that the first time James ran into Rob and Anders with a prototype in his possession, he dragged them both into the nearest men's room, locked the door, cut the lights, and presented his piece. Cue a chorus of adoring coos, showering the glowing disc with glory. Needless to say, passers-by were...perturbed.
The case is unique amongst Arcanauts in that it has received a special "framing" finish, that shows off the outlines of our recognisable ARC II case silhouette.
Our Experimental watches for 2024 are powered by Swiss-made automatic movements by Soprod, which are regulated in-house by our watchmakers in Copenhagen.
