What to know
Arsène Lippens has expanded the Artigiano Ref. 0599 with two Italian-textile dials. Stelvio mixes sand and khaki tones in a cotton-and-bamboo weave, while Bellagio combines white, blue and silver threads inspired by Lake Como. Existing Como, Chianti and Portofino variants remain in the collection.
The 316L-steel case retains its 37.5mm diameter, 45.5mm lug-to-lug span and 9.9mm thickness. A box-domed sapphire crystal sits above the woven dial, while the updated sapphire caseback now exposes the manually wound Sellita SW210-1b and its stated 48-hour power reserve. Water resistance is 50 metres.
The watches use colour-matched Alcantara straps with quick-release bars. Orders are scheduled to open from 5 to 11 November 2026, or until the planned batch sells out, at CHF 1,500 excluding VAT. Delivery is expected before Christmas 2026.
