It was a warm summer evening and my wife and I were mingling with the best of them.
The occasion was a 1920s-themed party, and everyone was dressed to the nines. Taking place on the kind of estate lined with vintage Duesenbergs, Packards and Auburns parked in the driveway, this was a party for the ages.
The most beautiful roadster was a white and chrome convertible that shined so brightly, it hurt our eyes.
Never ones to miss out on an opportunity, we carefully steadied our glasses of bubbly and climbed into the car’s long front seat. Among the many opulent features on display was a series of dashboard dials that accentuated the car’s lavish aura. One of those gleaming black dials inspired our 1920s Midnight Retrograde Watch, a timepiece that marries timeless style with modern technology.
With its remarkable retrograde hour and minute indicators, sunburst guilloche face and precision movement, this watch is truly a collector’s piece. What does retrograde mean? Instead of displaying the hands rotating on an axis like most watches, the hands sweep in a semicircle, then return to their starting point and begin all over again.
Hands down, this is one of the handsomest timepieces found. Since other collectible watches sell for $5,000 or more, we decided to turn the clock back to the 1920’s for a Stauer impossible price. Embrace the life of vintage luxury without paying a fortune. Get the 1920s Retrograde Watch and see what made the Roaring Twenties such a fun era to live in. — Jack B.
