A tour de force from Arnold & Son, Globetrotter shines with its unique design and powerful mechanism. This collector's piece demands attention wherever it goes.
Why we love it
The Arnold & Son Globetrotter is a true horological masterpiece, boasting an unconventional design and a practical world-time complication. It instantly grabs attention with its unique three-dimensional, dome-shaped depiction of the Northern Hemisphere at the centre of the dial. This beautifully-recreated map of the Northern Hemisphere with all the land masses, mountains and oceans is elevated by an arched steel bridge with a ruby at the centre that facilitates its movement. This complex artistic element is enclosed within a round steel case that measures 45mm in diameter. The case is naturally large so the dome-shaped structure as well as the other features can sit conspicuously and legibly. As a result, the Roman numeral hour markers and the 24-hour scale are placed most elegantly on the dial, creating a very pleasing vista overall.
The back of the Arnold & Son Globetrotter reveals the automatic calibre A&S6022. Developed, assembled, decorated, adjusted and manufactured at the factory in La Chaux-de-Fonds, this movement carries a large balance wheel that oscillates at 28,800vph and offers a power reserve of 45 hours. It features beautiful perlage finishing on the mainplate, while the bridges are decorated with Cotes de Geneve pattern.

Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
