A Swiss-made dress watch with a distinctive printed art dial — a cellist illustration and a red “The Art of Ligel” signature — on a brown leather strap.

Best for

Someone who wants a Swiss-movement dress watch with a distinctive printed art dial rather than a plain face.

Official product page

Overview

TAL’s Classic White is the one watch in this line that doesn’t play the dial safe. Instead of a plain face it carries a printed illustration — a cellist rendered in black ink with a red “The Art of Ligel” signature curving up the left side — over a white background, with “Swiss Made” at six o’clock. Underneath the art it’s the same Classic platform: a Swiss-made Ronda 515 quartz movement, a 40mm stainless-steel case, mineral glass and 50 metres of water resistance, here on a brown genuine-leather strap with a date window at three. It’s a talking-point dress watch rather than a minimalist one — the pick if you want the Swiss movement with a dial that stands out.

The good

  • Swiss-made Ronda 515 quartz movement
  • Distinctive printed art dial (cellist + “The Art of Ligel”)
  • Brown genuine-leather strap, 40mm steel case
  • 50m water resistance with a date window

The trade-offs

  • The bold art dial is a love-it-or-leave-it look
  • Mineral (not sapphire) crystal
  • Brown strap is less versatile than black or steel

FAQs

What’s on the dial?

A printed illustration of a cellist with a red “The Art of Ligel” signature over a white face, plus “Swiss Made” at six o’clock — it’s an art dial, not a plain one.

Is the movement Swiss?

Yes — a Ronda 515 Swiss quartz, made in Switzerland, the same as TAL’s other Classic watches.

What strap does it come on?

A brown genuine-leather strap with a buckle; it’s a standard 20mm strap, so a like-for-like swap is straightforward.
