Venezianico introduces the Arsenale Ultrablack, a striking timepiece that redefines minimalism with the innovative use of Musou Black™ paint. This special coating absorbs 99.4% of light, creating an unparalleled depth on the dial. Launching on November 26th at 3:00 PM (GMT+1), the Arsenale Ultrablack marries technical mastery with avant-garde design, offering collectors a bold and modern statement.
Absolute Black: A Revolutionary Aesthetic
The heart of the Arsenale Ultrablack lies in its dial, coated with Musou Black™, a material renowned for its ability to absorb nearly all visible light. This results in an exceptionally deep, matte black surface that challenges perception and elevates the minimalist aesthetic. Venezianico adapted this advanced paint for use on brass, the chosen metal for the dials, through a meticulous process involving fine airbrushing and precise application in a dust-free environment.
The depth achieved by Musou Black™ not only enhances the visual purity of the design but also underscores the watch’s technical innovation, making it a true conversation starter.
Design Inspired by Exploration
The Arsenale Ultrablack pays homage to Venice’s historic Arsenale, a center of ingenuity and exploration. This connection is reinforced by the caseback, engraved with a space station set against the vastness of the cosmos—a nod to humanity’s quest for discovery. The watch draws parallels between the bold expeditions of Venetian explorers and modern journeys into the unknown, blending tradition with forward-thinking design.

With a 40mm stainless steel case, a lug-to-lug distance of 44mm, and a slim profile of just 8.95mm, the watch offers a sophisticated presence on the wrist.
