Dial terlihat sudah menua,tapi justru menimbulkan efek penuaan yang sungguh indah. terlihat jarum tombak berwarna tembaga yang sangat serasi berpadu dengan efek coklat muda pada dial yang warna dasar aslinya adalah raw-metal silver yg sudah aging.
Angka-angka penunjuk jam menggunakan angka arab yang dicetak timbul,dengan bentuk angka yang unik dan sepertinya dibuat menggunakan bahan yang sama dengan jarum jam.
Back case bertuliskan "Acier Inoxydable" yang dalam bahasanya "Om JamesBond" berarti "Stainless Steel". Serta terdapat Tulisan / marking "Grand prix" yang mencirikan bahwa jam ini pada masa kejayaannya merupakan jam sport dengan durabilitas yg tinggi.
Cortebert History
Abraham-Louis Juillard opened his small watchmaking store in Cortébert village in Switzerland in 1790. This date is commonly used as the date of founding although the Cortébert brand name was only registered in 1855 using the bottony cross as a logo. Cortébert used to be one of the highest regarded premium watch brands, manufacturing their own movements, supplying movements to other brands such as Rolex, Rolex-panerai and introducing the jump-hour arrangement.
In the late 19th century Cortébert has obtained license for the famous jump-hour movement designed by Joseph Pallweber. The very same movement was also used in some IWC models.The early 1920s saw the development of the jump-hour into a wristwatch. Because it displayed the time with digits instead of rotating hands, it was the first digital wristwatch produced.
When the quartz crisis hit the industry in the '70s, the majority of prestige brands ceased production including Cortébert.In the early 1970s Cortébert mysteriously blended into the Perseo brand name, not producing Cortébert watches anymore.
