Arkaim—an ancient fortress on your wrist

The Arkaim collection is dedicated to a global sensation, one of the most remarkable archaeological discoveries made in Russia. Arkaim is an ancient fortified settlement from the Bronze Age, built approximately four thousand years ago. Discovered in the steppes of the Southern Urals in 1987, it has become a world-class monument.

Four thousand years ago, when the great dynasties were just emerging in Egypt, a city that was ahead of its time already stood in the steppes of the Southern Urals. Arkaim is a legendary Bronze Age fortress. It is a city with a perfect radial layout, advanced metallurgy, sophisticated stormwater drainage systems, and is the birthplace of the world's oldest war chariots.

The Russian watch manufacturer Molniya has brought the strict geometry and powerful energy of this place to life in its new conceptual collection of mechanical watches called "Arkaim."

Each element of the collection carries the historical code of an ancient culture:
The PVD-coated steel case with an aged bronze finish refers to the era when man first began to conquer metal, and the knurled crown follows the shape of the wheel of an ancient chariot.
The dial is an exact replica of the Arkaim layout. Concentric circles, radial passages, and a small second dial at 9 o'clock create the effect of a "city within a city."
The blade-like hands cut through the space of the dial, and the ancient meander ornament on the bezel represents the settlement's outer defensive belt.

The massive case, thick matte leather strap with rugged stitching, and warm bronze hue make this watch the perfect companion for items that age beautifully. The Arkaim will seamlessly fit into a wardrobe built around thick, raw denim, worn leather jackets, flannel shirts, corduroy, and textured tweed.

Arkhaim is a watch with a distinctly masculine character. It is designed for those who do not chase fleeting trends, but appreciate complex mechanics and individuality.
