The L’Artisan Dinosaur Bone Edition — Exclusive Release

The L’Artisan Dinosaur Bone Edition — Exclusive Backer Release

Dear friends,

Since May I’ve been quietly working on what has become my most ambitious project yet: a watch with a genuine dinosaur bone dial, powered by the beautiful HZ5000A micro-rotor movement. Today, for the first time, I’m opening an exclusive link just for you the backers who made my first Kickstarter possible.

This is a limited series reserved solely for Charoite backers. It will not be offered to the public in this form. Each piece carries details that make it truly special:

• Hand-engraved caseback by Roland Baptiste, one of Belgium’s most renowned engravers

• At the center, a finely engraved T-Rex skull

• The Latin motto “Per Aspera Ad Astra” at 12 o’clock

• Elegant numbering engraved at the bottom of the caseback to mark your piece in the series

Because I know some of you love seeing the movement, I will also supply both the hand-engraved caseback and a sapphire see-through caseback so you can swap between them whenever you like.

Specifications

• Movement: HZ5000A micro-rotor automatic movement

  • Micro-rotor design for a slim profile

  • 28,800 bph (4 Hz)

  • 42-hour power reserve

  • Stop-seconds (hacking) and hand-winding capability

• Case: 38 mm stainless steel

• Crystal: Domed sapphire 

• Dial: Authentic fossilised dinosaur bone from Utah

• Strap: Handmade leather strap crafted in the Netherlands by my trusted strapmaker

• Backs: Both hand-engraved solid caseback and see-through sapphire caseback included

This project has been a labour of love since May, and I’m thrilled to finally share it with you. As a thank-you for being here from the beginning, this exclusive backer price is lower than both the future commercial release and the price at which this piece will appear on its own Kickstarter campaign. (without hand engraved case back)

Thank you again for making all of this possible. I can’t wait to see these pieces on your wrists.
