Their escapement used to beat at one oscillation per second, naturally indicated by a sweep-seconds hand. This explicit function inspired Arnold & Son to create one of its most iconic complications: ‘True Beat’, also known as deadbeat seconds. The distinctive feature of the DSTB collection is that it displays this mechanism in full on the dial, hence the ‘Dial-Side True Beat’ name, delivering watchmaking, design and spectacle all in one. ## Appearance - **Colors:** Blue - **Materials:** Platinum, Leather ## Variants - **In stock:** 1 of 1 - **Available:** Blue | Color | SKU | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | | Blue | 47168043548843 | In stock | ## Categories - **Categories:** New ## Additional Attributes - **Type:** Strap - **tags:** DSTB, Exhibition Caseback, Smart Search - **Color:** Blue - **Glass:** Sapphire crystal - **Hands:** Blue - **Other:** Limited Edition of 18 Pieces - **Shape:** Round - **Gender:** Men's - **vendor:** Arnold & Son - **CH24 ID:** 14 - **Caseback:** Exhibition - **Material:** Leather - **Warranty:** 2 Year - **Condition:** New - **Functions:** Hours, Minutes, True Beat Seconds - **Thickness:** 12.95mm - **Buckle Type:** Pin buckle, platinum (Pt 950) - **Dial Markers:** Roman Numerals - **product type:** New - **Movement Type:** Automatic - **shopify handle:** arnold-son-dstb-platinum-blue-1atcxu01ac02 - **Case Description:** Platinum 950 - **Dial Description:** Grained, with “ascot blue” pvd treatment, white opal subdial - **Reference Number:** 1ATCX.U01A.C0263X - **Water Resistance:** 30m (3 ATM / 99 ft) — suitable for Light splashes, not for swimming - **Case Diameter ⌀:** 42mm - **Strap Description:** Ink Blue Alligator Leather, Hand-stitched - **Movement Description:** Mechanical Automatic, Caliber A&S6203 ## Enrichment - **Type:** watch - **Type Synonyms:** wristwatch, timepiece - **Gender:** unisex - **Age Groups:** adult - **Tags:** platinum case, blue dial, leather strap, alligator grain, skeleton dial, roman numerals, sweep seconds, analog - **Styles:** luxury, formal, classic - **Colors:** blue - **Color Families:** Blue - **Category Path:** Apparel & Accessories > Jewelry > Watches > Fine Watches - **Band color:** Blue - **Band pattern:** Solid - **Case color:** Silver - **Case pattern:** Solid - **Dial color:** Blue - **Dial pattern:** Illusion - **Watch case shape:** Round - **Watch display:** Analog - **Watch features:** Skeleton Dial - **Watch material:** Leather, Metal - **Canonical Brand:** Arnold & Son ## Images - ![Image 1](https://cdn.storerouter.ai/d55c03c2dd843226ac73ea9ea9869910/ce97b8f50bb2991cb34ab75b08d5ab52.webp) - ![Image 2](https://cdn.storerouter.ai/d55c03c2dd843226ac73ea9ea9869910/d65d1d111bab70344d20833fb73786c6.jpeg) - ![Image 3](https://cdn.storerouter.ai/d55c03c2dd843226ac73ea9ea9869910/f6f471e0501840798aea1bd293d46379.webp) --- *Source: cosimo.shop | Product ID: 199b2aff-da6d-5ac2-9ba1-5878c1eefd90 | Canonical URL: https://cosimo.shop/product/arnold-son/arnold-son-dstb-platinum-blue-199b2aff-da6d-5ac2-9ba1-5878c1eefd90*
