The Furlan Marri Sector dial is a Swiss microbrand dress watch inspired by early 20th-century sector-dial references from Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, housed in a compact 37.5mm cornes-de-vache (cow-horn lug) case and powered by a La Joux-Perret G100 automatic.

On the wrist

On the wrist the Sector dial reads as smaller than 37.5mm because the cornes-de-vache lugs arc down softly and meld into the strap, but the 46mm lug-to-lug gives it real wrist presence — it fills a medium wrist without sprawl. The case surfaces are the first thing to arrest attention in person: a flat brushed bezel ring transitions into a polished chamfer, then to satin flanks, with enough variety across planes that it catches light almost like a much more expensive piece. The dial itself is restrained to the point of austerity — crosshair-like sector tracks, Breguet numerals only at the cardinal positions, leaf or needle hands — which is exactly correct for the genre. In daylight it is deeply legible; in dim light there is almost nothing, which is a deliberate vintage concession.

Flip it over and the sapphire caseback (on current models) reveals Geneva-striped bridges and a palladium-plated tungsten rotor that spins visibly when you tilt the wrist — not a movement you'd expect to see through a caseback at this price. Anyone who has admired a 1930s Patek sector dial in a museum case will find the Furlan Marri a surprisingly faithful evocation; buyers who want bold proportions, a date window, or any practical water activity should look elsewhere.

Bottom line

A genuinely high-value vintage dress piece — the applied Breguet numerals, multi-plane case finishing, and decorated exhibition movement are rare at CHF 1,250 — best suited to the collector who wants period-correct sector-dial aesthetics from a modern reliable automatic without paying Patek prices.

Who it's for

Collectors drawn to pre-war Swiss dress-watch design — particularly those who admire sector dials on vintage Patek, Vacheron, or LeCoultre pieces — who want a modern automatic at a microbrand price. The 37.5mm diameter and 46mm lug-to-lug sit best on wrists in the 15–17cm circumference range.

Who should skip it

Skip it if you need a date complication, any luminous legibility in low light, more than 50m water resistance, a steel bracelet option, or prefer a bolder contemporary silhouette.

Before you buy

Multiple references exist — confirm colour variant before ordering: White 2161-A, Salmon 2154-A, Blue SKU BLUE-SECTOR-20202; Black 2116-A and Grey 2145-A are archived
Caseback specification differs by reference: current White, Salmon, and Blue models list front-and-back sapphire/open casebacks; archived Grey also lists front-and-back sapphire, while the archived Black page lists sapphire crystal but does not clearly list a sapphire back
No lume on any variant — virtually no low-light legibility
Salmon Sector was out of stock at time of research (July 2026); check current availability before ordering

FAQ

Is the Sector dial automatic or quartz?

The Sector dial is automatic. The La Joux-Perret G100 winds itself from the motion of your wrist, so it needs no battery. A full wind holds roughly 68 hours, so it keeps running overnight off the wrist; left longer it stops and restarts once you wear or hand-wind it.

What movement does the Sector dial use?

The Sector dial is powered by the La Joux-Perret G100 from La Joux-Perret, an automatic caliber with 24 jewels, a 68-hour power reserve, and a 28,800 bph beat rate. Being automatic, it winds from the motion of your wrist and needs no battery.

How water resistant is the Sector dial?

The Sector dial is rated to 50 m. That is enough for hand-washing, rain and brief swimming, but not for diving or prolonged submersion. Whatever the rating, avoid operating the crown or pushers underwater, and have the gaskets checked periodically to keep it reliable.

How big does the Sector dial wear?

At 37.5 mm across with a 46 mm lug-to-lug and 10.5 mm thick, the Sector dial wears as a versatile mid-size watch. Lug-to-lug is the measurement that really decides fit, since it sets how far the case spans the wrist — 46 mm suits most wrists, and smaller wrists especially should check that figure.

How close is the Sector dial to a vintage Patek sector-dial reference aesthetically?

Closer than most — the applied Breguet numerals at the cardinal positions, radial chapter-ring tracks, cow-horn lugs, and dauphine-adjacent hands are all period-correct details. The Furlan Marri adds modern reliability with a La Joux-Perret automatic movement with decorative finishing and sapphire crystal while keeping the silhouette faithful; a genuine vintage Patek sector dial costs ten to fifty times more and carries service risk.

Is the La Joux-Perret G100 worth paying a premium for at this price tier?

Yes — LJP is a La Chaux-de-Fonds maker with serious pedigree, and the G100 used here has decorative finishing with Geneva stripes, snailing, and blued screws, plus a 68h power reserve and 24 jewels. At CHF 1,250 it is unusual to find a Swiss-made automatic movement finished to this standard and visible through a sapphire caseback.

Which dial colour is the best choice for a first Furlan Marri Sector dial?

The Salmon Sector (2154-A) has drawn the most editorial enthusiasm for its warm tone and strong visual echo of vintage Patek salmon dials; the White Sector is the most versatile daily wearer; the Blue Sector (2025) is the freshest option. All three share identical case, movement, and pricing — the choice is purely aesthetic.
