From an ancient legend of venom and motion to a modern marvel of mechanical art - the ATOWAK Tarantula transforms danger into design.
The Legend That Inspired Movement
Before it became a watch, Tarantula was a legend. The tarantula a creature once believed to make its victims dance endlessly from its venom has now inspired a watch where time itself moves with the same hypnotic rhythm.
At the heart of ATOWAK Tarantula, a floating wheel captures light and scatters it in shifting hues as the hours glide by a visual echo of the mythical spider shimmering in motion.
The Cobweb Dial - Where Art Meets Engineering
The Tarantula’s dial is no mere display; it is a stage of geometry and depth. Its multi-layered web structure, assembled by hand, creates a sense of dimension rarely found in this price category. Under changing light, its architectural lines come alive like a mechanical organism breathing time.
The Wandering Hour - Reimagined with Boldness
The Tarantula operates on ATOWAK’s proprietary Satellite Wandering Hour Wheela modern re-interpretation of a centuries-old complication. Tiny satellites rotate silently to reveal the passing hours a choreography of precision and mystery combined.
At just 13.5 mm thick**, this architecture is a mechanical achievement in itself, a balance between technical sophistication and wrist comfort.
A Three-Layer Case… Polished Twenty Times
The Tarantula’s case is crafted from three layers of stainless steel, each subjected to more than twenty individual polishing and finishing processes. The result is a form that flows naturally around the wrist, alternating between polished and brushed planes like a metallic sculpture. These details are not decoration — they are ATOWAK’s signature of modern luxury.
Venom of the Night
When darkness falls, the Tarantula awakens. Its numerals and satellites ignite with Swiss Super-LumiNova, transforming the watch into a glowing tableau - a mechanical spider hunting light in the dark. It isn’t a watch you read; it’s a performance you witness.
A Modern Creature - Built for Motion
The strap, made from premium NBR rubber, is supple, water-resistant, and antibacterial designed for comfort and versatility, whether worn beneath a tuxedo or on a late-night drive. Every element of the Tarantula serves a single purpose: to move as fluidly as a living being.
Three Editions - Three Faces of Mystery
The Tarantula is available in three limited editions, each representing a different facet of its predatory beauty:
- Twilight Red: fiery and bold, symbolizing passion and danger.
- Sapphire Blue: serene and precise, embodying calm intelligence.
- Jungle Green: deep and instinctive, echoing the raw power of natu

Each colorway is limited to 500 pieces worldwide, its serial number engraved on the case back, a personal signature within this web of time.
A Price That Defies Expectation
At approximately US $2,199 (≈ SAR 8,500, the Tarantula offers a level of mechanical complication seldom seen in this segment. While Urwerk UR-220sells for over 400,000, and MB&F HM7 Aquapod surpasses 100,000, ATOWAK Tarantula delivers a comparable sense of mechanical theatre and visual wonder; at a price that brings fine horological art from the collector’s cabinet to the wrist of the dreamer.
When Motion Becomes Instinct
The Tarantula is not inspired by danger, it embodies it. It turns chaos into rhythm, threat into balance, and precision into a mechanical dance. It is more than a timekeeper; it is a living heartbeat of imagination, a reminder that time is not a circle we follow, but a web we weave.
