REF: ARP4886

The TSR 2 is an automatic version of Arpiem's TSR chrono watch, inspired by endurance racing icon Bob Wolleck.
Wolleck, who dedicated almost his entire career to"SPORTSCARS", was a benchmark driver for Porsche, taking 71 of his 76 international victories with the brand.
Although he won prestigious races such as the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring, he never won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, despite six podium finishes. The indices 71 and 6 on the dial refer to these exploits.
Assembled in France and made in Bordeaux

The Case
The ARPIEM RACEMATIC watch is designed with a 316L stainless steel case, renowned for its unique properties: virtually no magnetism, guaranteeing optimal movement operation, and low carbon content (less than 0.35%), offering excellent resistance to corrosion and wear. It is water-resistant to 10 ATM, and its adjustment knob is screwed on for improved water-resistance.
DLC bezel coating
DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating combines the properties of graphite and diamond with a small amount of hydrogen deposited in thin layers under vacuum. This high-performance material, appreciated in the watchmaking, mechanical and optical industries, stands out for its exceptional resistance to wear, its inalterability and its low coefficient of friction. On the TSR 2, its durability is far superior to that of a conventional PVD coating.
The Dial
- Retro design: the sub-dials, or "pandas", are inspired by the pressure gauges on cars in the 60s, while the main indexes evoke the graduations of an automobile rev counter.
- Triple-layer design: This structure gives the dial a refined relief, reminiscent of the "sandwich" chassis of pre-carbon racing cars.
The movement
The watch is equipped with a MIYOTA caliber 9132 automatic movement with power reserve, mounted on 26 jewels and oscillating at a frequency of 28,800 Hz.
Curved sapphire crystal
This top-quality glass, made of aluminum oxide crystal, offers exceptional scratch resistance. With a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale, it ranks just below diamond. Its domed finish gives it a vintage style that perfectly matches the spirit of the watch.
Anti-reflective treatment
A six-layer treatment limits the refraction of light on the sapphire crystal, ensuring faithful perception of colors and materials. The more layers, the less light is reflected.
Revised tachometer
Unlike traditional tachometers, where the indexes are arranged irregularly, those of the ARPIEM are aligned as on a diver's watch. The speed is indicated for each 5-second interval directly on the dial.
Case back
The transparent sapphire crystal caseback reveals the engraved rotor of the automatic movement, adding a touch of refinement to the overall look.
