The buyer should expect to receive an automatic mechanical NH38 powered fordite dial watch with a black leather strap all in a matte black explorer style case. This is a very special dial with waves of white only, it is very rare to find monochrome “Detroit agate.” No logo or branding on the watch anywhere. The fordite is set on a commercially available brass dial blank. The dial is highly polished and the pattern/texture is very detailed, all work on the dial is done by me.
This watch is powered by a TMI movement that can be serviced at virtually any watch shop. This is a high quality case with a flat sapphire crystal (clear AR). The case diameter is 37 mm, lug to lug its 43mm, thickness is 12.25 mm, and lug width is 20 mm if you'd like to mod this mod. the case and hands are from CrystalTimesUSA. The strap is from Barton. The hands are lumed so you can see the time in low light conditions, also the lume can light up some of the pattern.
Fordite or Detroit Agate is indutrial waste from the paint area from a car factory, when the sprayers mist the car the paint lands on equipment after some time many layers build up and someone has to dispose of the preciouse material we love so much. Instead of throwing it away it gets made into gems, knife handles, shift knobs and in my case watch dials. **please send me a message if you plan on buying this watch and are not familiar with automatic mechanical watches. *Assembled in Colorado USA with internationally sourced parts*
