What to know
ALTO has introduced the ART 02, reference MK6 Ti, as the first permanent-collection expression of its angular watch design. The grade 5 titanium case measures 42.3mm long by 36mm wide and 10.2mm thick, while weighing 38 grams without the bracelet. A faceted sapphire crystal, architectural dial and counter-clockwise seconds hand retain the unconventional character of the ART 01.
The new A02 automatic calibre runs at 36,000 vibrations per hour and provides a stated 50-hour power reserve. Its titanium main plate and finished bridges are visible through the sapphire back. ALTO also debuts a matching quick-release titanium bracelet with a folding clasp and four millimetres of micro-adjustment. Water resistance is 5 ATM, and the manufacturer schedules first deliveries for November 2026.
