This Titus Automatic Day-Date is a bold statement from the 1970s—an era known for experimental case shapes and mechanical reliability. With its large 40mm cushion case, this watch commands attention while retaining vintage charm. The brushed steel dial is vertically textured, creating a unique interplay with light that adds depth to the minimalist layout.
Chunky applied indices and baton hands reflect the era’s utilitarian flair, while the day-date window at 3 o’clock enhances functionality. The Titus crest and typography remain intact, even as the watch shows honest signs of aging across the dial and case. The integrated stainless steel bracelet completes the retro appeal, giving it a seamless silhouette on the wrist.
This is a pure 1970s mechanical tool watch—unapologetically big, beautifully worn, and built to last.
