DIAL
opaline silver, circular brushed
t once graphic, cartographic and
hemispherical, the Globetrotter Night gives its
display of world times over to the night. Beneath
a crystal dome, this timepiece plays on nocturnal
nuances and city lights.
In the 1780s, John Arnold contributed to the great
revolution in ocean navigation with his marine
chronometers. The Globetrotter Night reflects this
historical legacy with its cartographic features and
world times. As night follows day, Arnold & Son
cloaks its Globetrotter in darkness, spectacularly
showcasing our northern hemisphere when
shrouded in vesperal shadow.
Panoramic vision
Beneath a large sapphire crystal dome, an arch
supports a half-globe in shades of grey and blue.

It depicts the continents, the seas and the lights
of the large cities located north of the equator.
On the edge of the planet, a sapphire ring breaks
down the 24 hours of a day. Transparent between
6 am and 6 pm, a metal treatment has been used
to darken it, indicating the night-time hours.
Together, the hemisphere and ring display the
time in one part of the world, represented in a
highly original way. In the absence of a dedicated
hand or city disc, the time is read geographically
in accordance with the continents.
The Earth by night
The Globetrotter Night offers a realistic and
meticulously rendered interpretation of a three-
dimensional map enclosed in a 45 mm steel case.
