What is a matte dial on a watch?
1 Answer
A matte dial of a watch refers to the finish, which is flat in appearance, in comparison with its glossier counterparts which have a shine to their finish. The lume plots are typically painted on, instead of being applied. You can shop a collection of expertly vetted watches from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
