Straight up petrified dinosaur *** in a watch. Either it is the poor man's fossil accessory, of the edgiest piece of the Jurassic available. You'd actually be surprised how many people collect the substance known as coprolite. You have probably already guessed what it is. In his ongoing quest to shock, awe, and inspire, Yvan Arpa gives you the Artya Coprolite. Artya is his own brand. He is the guy who pretty much made Romain Jerome what it is. His new mission is to continue "re***" the watch - with an artistic flare unparalleled by other contemporaries.No doubt that preference for the Artya Coprolite is an acquired taste. Not only is the dial material something you need to think kicks ass, but you need to stomach 50mm of it including the case on your wrist. Arpa has a fascination with decay. As such, the steel or bronze case here is done in a fashion that resembles highly weathered metal. When I first breitling replica bentley gt 47mm edition watches looked at the piece it seemed to resemble a watch I had seen elsewhere.

the Coprolite breitling replica 50th anniversary watches
When I finally checked out the Coprolite breitling replica 50th anniversary watches I realized that what I was associating the watch with was no mere accident.I am not totally sure of the nature of cooperation, but the watch is a combo of efforts from Artya and Guer Man (I wrote about their Trace watch here). The case is crafted in the Guer Man workshops. While Artya says the watch is a piece unique, this is not totally true. There will be more than one Coprolite watch, but because each dial is a unique piece of cut coprolite, then each dial will be unique. I tend to associate "piece unique" with watches that have only one watch planned, including minor variations. As such, the entire dial of the watch is coprolite with skeletonized twisted metal hands, and a long, double sided seconds hands (with a red tip where the indicator is).Inside the watch is a Swiss automatic movement, which is breitling replica avenger titanium watches visible through the back. Nothing fancy, but there is some interesting "weathering" on the automatic rotor.
