Roll Call on intriguing dials?
A watch is classically conceived to give the Time. One hand for the hours, another for the minutes, and sometimes, one for the seconds. There are other watches which display the Time in a more original, not to say poetic way. Let's see these intriguing di...
Jutzi Regulator
Not my watch or picture, but I hope to have the opportunity to own one some day. I find this particular dial design simply ingenious--elementary shapes juxtaposed (circles in a triangle in a circle on a rectangle formed by the lugs), and a regulateur desi...

Always like the Borel cocktail watch. And the Mystery watch. This is not a watch, but quite good fun -- where she stops nobody knows. (apologies to picture owners, all grabbed of the WWW) This message has been edited by Ubik on 2011-03-15 09:25:29...
The Borel...
...my mother has/had? one of those. But I recall it hurt her eyes! I will have to nag her to dig it out. Thanks for the reminder.
I am so forgetful. These are better example.

ah Tyler, the starwheel. as i no longer have mine i decided not to post pics, but to wait either for its new owner or someone else to post. a superb watch, but a fraction small and slim for my current preference. best G
Ahhh, Tyler!...
That explains a great deal! You're Obviously Unsuccessfully Hiding A Very Exotic One; Not Envying The Original Owner.... Cheers, pplater.
Actually I am the one jumping with joy.
I have one of my brightest smile when I saw your photo. I meant every word I said about this watch being one of the most original. I'm glad this watch found its way into many purist's home. Best Tyler
2 excellent examples, Tyler ...
The Starwheel is like a dream for me, original, poetic, mysterious, all these details I am mad for. As for the Goldpfeil, it is interesting to see where the dial took its inspiration from. 2 great examples! Best, Nicolas.
