Description
JUST OVER A CENTURY AGO, IN THE 1920S AND 30S, WATCHMAKERS BROKE FREE FROM THE CONVENTIONAL ROUND CASE TO INVENT SQUARE AND RECTANGULAR VARIANTS.
THE ART D?CO-STYLE WATCH
100% steel (case and strap), a quartz movement, two years of battery life, a silver-finish dial with two central hands and a small off-centre seconds hand above over the ?sector dial? minute track, and large Roman numerals.
IT?S A SQUARE THAT?S NOT A SQUARE
The Classics Carr?e style evokes the Art D?co spirit of the ?20s and ?30s, with straight, taut lines and elaborate shapes that break away from the conventional circle.
The rectangular case houses a dial with an equally rectangular minute track, and a small independent seconds hand at 6 o?clock. This is offset from the main dial by a slight recess. The hour markers?written in Roman numerals? run parallel to the sector-dial minute track, a typical feature of watches during the Interwar Years.
