The dial is marked ROGATIS and QUARTZ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJapanese Private Label Brands as a Collecting Area\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAlongside Seiko, Citizen, and Orient, Japan had a wide field of private label brands for decades that purchased movements and designed only cases and dials. Rogatis is one of them: sold through department stores and specialized shops, without its own movement manufacturing, without a catalog archive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThese brands are not recorded in any reference literature. Collectors work exclusively with the objects themselves — which is what makes them appealing and simultaneously leaves the market unobserved. They are indispensable for understanding the Japanese watch landscape of the eighties: they show what designs were actually sold outside the big houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA deep black dial, on which only gold-colored elements are placed. The hour markers change rhythmically: slender applied baton indices and small round dots alternate, forming a wreath that, upon closer inspection, is more irregular than it appears from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe ROGATIS lettering is below 12 o'clock, QUARTZ above 6 o'clock. The hands are gold-colored — the hour hand in a wide Dauphine shape, the minute hand as a narrow baton, the second hand as a hairline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe case is bicolor and contrasts the two tones: a matted, silver-colored outer part with eight suggested edges, within it a polished gold-colored ring around the dial, plus four gold-colored lug caps and a gold-colored crown. The black crocodile-embossed leather strap is new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePlease note: The gold-colored parts are plated, not made of solid gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDating\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDating is not possible. The case back has no serial number, and there is no known dating system for Rogatis. The construction, bicolor finish, and dial design suggest the 1980s. We provide this as an indication, not as a confirmed dating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition and Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe watch comes from Japan and was inspected and fitted with a new battery before sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt is a used original item. The dial is complete; all indices and dots are secure, the printing is without flaws. The hands are straight and undamaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn the upper left area of the glass, approximately between the 10 and 11 o'clock positions, there is a fine curved scratch mark, which is visible in the product photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe gold-colored plating is worn on the lug caps and the case edge; the base material shows through there. This wear is clearly visible in the bottom views. The steel back shows circumferential grinding marks, the embossing is legible. The crown is functional. The black leather strap is new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe actual condition is shown unretouched in the product photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBrand: Rogatis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eReference: 4660-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMovement: Quartz, battery-powered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFunctions: Hour, minute, second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCase: Base metal, bicolor plated, stainless steel back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDiameter without crown: 27.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHeight: 7.1 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLug-to-Lug: 33.8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLug width: 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWeight including strap: 22 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDial: Black with gold-colored baton indices and dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eStrap: New black crocodile-embossed leather strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDating: Probably 1980s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOrigin: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor whom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFor slender wrists, for whom 27.5 millimeters are suitable.
