The partners are now presenting a limited edition of the Purist model that combines Glashütte’s artisanal tradition with a cultural connection to the U.S.: the DUG X Windup Limited Edition “California Dial”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe watch stands out because the applied indices are half-Arabic and half-Roman. This design stems from the era of classic watch designs between Art Deco and military influences of the 1940s, as does the overall design lineage of the DUG Purist. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe term “California dial” for this mix of numeral styles, however, dates back to the 1980s, when a company in California refinished a large number of vintage dials, often in the style of the then-popular half-Arabic, half-Roman dials. The watches took on that California vibe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe limited-edition DUG also has this vibe. But as with every DUG, the core essence remains classic design without being tied to a retro aesthetic. Here, the idea of contrasting two different dial styles is also reflected in the color scheme: The dial is entirely in black-and-white contrast—down to the last detail of the black lume plots on the flange.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DUG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43695100002370,"sku":"P2CS-LS","price":2393.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0014\/6158\/3938\/files\/Index1_c84e20cd-7d74-4f58-9115-40478986766f.jpg?v=1777665795","url":"https:\/\/windupwatchshop.com\/en-au\/products\/dug-x-windup-limited-edition-california-dial","provider":"Windup Watch Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
