Time travel at the speed of a 1930s Speedster?
The 1930s brought unprecedented innovation in machine-age technology and materials. Industrial designers
from the auto industry translated the principals of aerodynamics and streamlining into everyday objects like
radios and toasters. It was also a decade when an unequaled variety of watch cases and movements came into
being. In lieu of hands to tell time, one such complication, called a jumping mechanism, utilized numerals
on a disc viewed through a window. With its striking resemblence to the dashboard gauges and radio dials of
the decade, the jump hour watch was indeed "in tune" with the times!
The Stauer 1930s Dashtronic deftly blends the modern functionality of a 21-jewel automatic movement
and 3-ATM water resistance with the distinctive, retro look of a jumping display (not an actual jumping
complication).
If you have an appreciation for classic design with precision accuracy, the 1930s Dashtronic Watch is
built for you. This watch is a limited edition, so please act quickly. Our last two limited edition
