The collection features four variations, split between textured dials (Serie 01) and enamel dials (Serie 02), marking a significant pivot for the brand into horological substance.

The Arche collection includes two Serie 01 models with textured dials and two Serie 02 models with enamel dials.
The Serie 01 models feature a date function at 4 o'clock in a parallelogram shape.
The Arche case is round and features a distinctive five-layer construction creating concentric circles with contrasting finishes.
The Serie 02 enamel dials are available in blue and black, with the black being a challenging color to execute perfectly.
The Miyota 9015 automatic movement provides the thin profile and quick-set date capabilities for the Arche models.
