The Longitude Titanium is a tribute to maritime elements and modern yachts, crafted with a sleek curvature in mind. The 42.5mm case is made of titanium and boasts a water resistance of up to 100 meters. The bottom half of the bezel marks 60 teeth, giving a nod to John Arnold's marine chronometers.

The dial comes in three colors inspired by the birthplace of John Arnold in Cornwall. The classic marine chronometer layout features a power reserve indicator, central hour and minute hands, and a small seconds sub-dial. The subtly patterned small-second sub-dial adds a touch of elegance. Super-LumiNova is used to enhance readability on the hour markers, hands, and the round links of the integrated bracelet.

Powering the Longitude Titanium is a new A&S6302 caliber, an automatic movement that is COSC-certified as a chronometer. Its 22k gold oscillating rotor is shaped like the bow of an 18th-century English frigate. The movement can be admired through the sapphire crystal case back, showcasing meticulously decorated bridges and a large barrel that provides a 60-hour power reserve.
