Another one, just for the fun. No idea what and how and when. Can't find anything on i-net. Most probably long gone brand. Works fine though!

In the following posts I will show some of my white dialed watches. I will restrict myself to real white or cream dials, as opposed to silver.

My passion for Heuer chronographs started with this model, the legendary "Siffert". Though, it was not my first Heuer, I needed more than a year to finally obtain this fine example:

Only recently I acquired this calendar Carrera with really fat lugs merging almost tangentially into the case:

Heuer Carrera 12 Dato 2547 1st execution (Valjoux cal. 723)


I have to confess, I got two watches from the Bonhams Haslinger auction, one being this Montreal, a fabulous summer watch, BTW:

From my former life as an IWC collector I kept a few icons.

This very rare pilot's Doppelchronograph (Rattrapante) shows a gorgeous porcelain white dial with dark blue registers. It was manufactured for the Japanese market commemorating the 130th anniversary of IWC.

This modern Portugieser was made in 1997 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Orologi Pisa in Milano. It's a later version of the Jubilee Portugieser.

This vintage looking, absolutely Bauhaus, German watch was made in 2014:

I bought my first Universal Genève watch only for this crazy dial layout with the extended hour hand reaching the outer 24h scale:

Universal Genève Aero-Compax 24h 890100-01 (Universal Genève cal. 178)


Rather late, but not too late regarding the current bubble, I was able to obtain my "Nina Rindt" with fantastic tropical sub dials:

We are reaching the end: Z for Zenith.

My first Zenith was the iconic A386, of course:

You may have followed in the Zenith forum the recent resurrection of this extremely rare beauty:

There are so many evolutions of the De Luca, but I like the first version with the thin stick hands only, here in pure white:

Zenith De Luca I 01.0043.400 (Zenith cal. 400)


That's all. I hope you enjoyed the tour.


Cheers,
