Dials are a key element in watchmaking
They are the visible part of the watch. They display the time, as well as other information such as the date, moon phases, chronographs and so on. Some also feature 3D elements, just incredible in terms of detail and technicality due to miniaturization.
Dials come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors and materials. The manufacturing techniques involved are important, and the craftsmanship is top-notch. Their design can vary considerably from one watch to another, and we’re not going to lie, a beautiful dial can tip the balance when it comes to making a purchase! Color is often personal, and companies like POSITIVE COATING have understood this.
A well-designed dial can add value to a watch, making it more attractive and improving its legibility. Dials can be simple or complex, with a variety of patterns, textures and finishes.
Dial-makers must be able to work with great precision to create dials that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
