In the mid-1930s, a masterpiece with the renowned Cal.87 movement from International was crafted. This is a rare timepiece featuring a black upride Arabic dial encased in 14K yellow gold with a rectangular shape. Representing International, it houses the iconic Cal.87 movement known for its angular design. The dial, unlike many black dials abundant with luminous and printed indexes, stands out with its embossed applied Arabic numerals on a black gilt dial. Despite its modest size, the watch exudes a sense of weightiness with its 14K yellow gold rectangular case, and the three-dimensional indexes and subtly recessed sub-seconds dial contribute to its luxurious and captivating aesthetic.
