40 mm with blued hands

The design of the Art Deco pocket watches from the 1920s-1940s was so popular that it was also applied to the first wristwatches from 1940, of course with a much smaller diameter. At that time, these Art Deco wristwatches were between 34 - 38 mm in size, very rare models also 40 mm. Almost all watch brands at that time offered such a model. They differed only slightly in appearance. The Tourby Art Deco 40 builds on the successful Art Deco series and is a logical consequence of the current trend towards smaller diameters. In 2015, Tourby designed the new 40s case specifically for this model. Encasing the 37 mm pocket watch movement in a case with such a small diameter is a technical masterpiece. Tourby proves once again that it is ahead of its time.

43 mm with rhodium hands

Watches with "Salmon Dial", i.e. salmon-colored dials, have a very long tradition in watchmaking, dating back to the 1930s. Classic watches usually have three dial colors: white, black or blue. Colorful dials like green, red or yellow were hardly used at all. That didn't go with classic watches. Salmon-colored dials, on the other hand, were used much more frequently, but only for the very special editions. Most of the time, limited models were equipped with this dial color, or when a tourbillon was built into a model. A salmon colored dial has always been a sign of something very special, and something very rare. Salmon-colored watches from well-known watch manufacturers often achieve top prices at auctions today. Watches with this dial color are the rarest of any collector's collection.

The case back

You can view the finely decorated Swiss hand-wound movement on the back through the sapphire crystal case back. The simple Unitas raw movement is elaborately finished and upgraded in our manufactory.

The Movement

Top Grade

The basis for our Top Grade movement is the Swiss ETA Unitas 6498-2. The ebauche is completely finely finished in our manufactory with skeletonization, snail grinding, perlage, bevelled edges, blued screws, double sunburst wheels and a blued swan-neck fine adjustment. The movement is also technically upgraded with a longer power reserve and a Glucydur chronometer balance.
