{"product_id":"cortebert-dress-watch-sector-dial-1940s","title":"Cortébert Art Deco Dress Watch 'Sector' Dial 1940s","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe sector dial is one of the most visually compelling configurations that 1930s and 1940s watchmaking produced — a two-tone arrangement in which the outer chapter ring and inner dial field are rendered in contrasting tones. On this Cortébert from the 1940s, that configuration is executed with exceptional quality: a warm cream inner field framed by a copper-salmon outer ring, both carrying the period's characteristic patina, with black Arabic numerals and a fine minute track running the full circumference. The blued steel hands complete a combination that is immediately and unmistakably Art Deco in its sensibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCortébert was a La Chaux-de-Fonds manufacture with a long history of producing movements for their own cases as well as for other Swiss houses, and the Caliber. 671S in this example is a characterful and well-made manual wind movement of the period. A dial of this quality and condition, on a case of this preservation, is a rare encounter in the 1940s dress watch market.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cortébert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71862725672982,"sku":"COR-1940-1025","price":2250.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0202\/3856\/5398\/files\/CortebertArtDecoDressWatch_Sector_Dial_1940s_COR-1940-1025__0011_DSCF0742.jpg?v=1788409630","url":"https:\/\/wynnandthayne.com\/products\/cortebert-dress-watch-sector-dial-1940s","provider":"Wynn \u0026 Thayne","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
