The Ingersoll Broadway Dual Time Automatic (I12908) is a bold statement of contemporary horological design, combining technical sophistication with striking aesthetic presence. This 43mm timepiece features a fully skeletonised dial that reveals the intricate mechanics of its automatic movement, showcasing the artistry of watchmaking through multiple layers of gears, bridges, and complications. The black PVD ceramic case delivers a modern, stealth aesthetic while offering exceptional scratch resistance and durability for everyday wear.
At the heart of this watch lies an automatic mechanical movement with dual time functionality, visible through the open-worked dial architecture. The moon phase display at 12 o'clock adds both visual interest and practical complication, while the dual time registers allow simultaneous tracking of two time zones — an essential feature for the modern traveller or international professional. Blue-jewelled components punctuate the movement, catching light as the watch animates on the wrist. The black integrated rubber strap features a distinctive architectural profile that echoes the angular case design, secured with a matching black PVD buckle.
Built to withstand daily encounters with water, the Broadway Dual Time offers 50 metres (5 ATM) of water resistance, making it suitable for everyday wear including handwashing and rain exposure. The mineral crystal protects the intricate dial below, while the substantial 14mm case thickness accommodates the complex automatic calibre. As authorised retailers of INGERSOLL watches, Cassim & Co. is proud to offer this exceptional timepiece backed by full manufacturer warranty and dedicated after-sales support through our watch servicing and repairs team.
The Ingersoll Broadway collection reimagines classical watchmaking codes through a contemporary lens, and this dual time skeleton variant represents the pinnacle of that philosophy. The 26mm lug width accommodates strap changes for those wishing to personalise their timepiece, while the automatic movement eliminates the need for battery changes — simply wear the watch regularly or use a watch winder to maintain power reserve. Experience this remarkable timepiece in person at our Mall of the South boutique, where our expert team can demonstrate the intricate mechanics and assist with sizing and fit.

FAQ
Q: Does this watch require battery changes?
A: No. The Ingersoll Broadway I12908 features an automatic mechanical movement that is powered by the natural motion of your wrist throughout the day. There are no batteries to replace. When not worn, the watch will wind down after approximately 40 hours; simply wear it regularly or use a watch winder to maintain continuous operation.
Q: What does the dual time function allow me to do?
A: The dual time complication enables you to track two different time zones simultaneously on the same dial. This is particularly useful for frequent travellers, those with international business contacts, or anyone who regularly communicates across time zones. The additional time display is visible through the skeletonised dial architecture.
Q: Is the case made from stainless steel or ceramic?
A: The case is constructed from ceramic with a black PVD coating. Ceramic offers superior scratch resistance compared to stainless steel and maintains its finish exceptionally well over time. The material also provides a distinctive matte black appearance that contrasts beautifully with the visible movement components.
Q: Can I wear this watch while swimming?
A: With 50 metres (5 ATM) of water resistance, the Broadway Dual Time is suitable for everyday water exposure including handwashing, rain, and brief surface swimming. However, it is not suitable for diving, snorkelling, or high-impact water sports. We recommend avoiding操作 the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
Q: How do I set the moon phase complication?
A: The moon phase display should be set using the crown or a dedicated corrector pusher (consult your manual for the specific method for this model). To set it accurately, find out the date of the last new moon, calculate the number of days since, then advance the moon phase display by that number of days. The moon phase will then track the lunar cycle automatically.
Q: Can I change the strap on this watch?
A: Yes. The Broadway features a standard 26mm lug width, allowing you to fit alternative straps including leather, NATO-style textile, or other rubber options. Cassim & Co. can assist with professional strap changes and offer a selection of aftermarket options at our Mall of the South boutique.
Q: What is included with my purchase?
A: Your Ingersoll Broadway I12908 includes the watch on its original black rubber strap, the full presentation box, instruction manual, warranty card, and a 2-year international manufacturer warranty valid from the date of purchase when bought from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.

Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Remove your watch before engaging in high-impact activities, contact sports, or when using tools and machinery that could subject the timepiece to shock or vibration.
- Water Exposure: Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in and never operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Cleaning: Clean the ceramic case and rubber strap regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For the strap, use mild soap and water if needed, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: When not wearing your automatic watch for extended periods, store it in a cool, dry place away from magnetic fields, extreme temperatures, and direct sunlight. Consider using a watch winder to maintain the movement's power reserve and lubrication.
- Crown Care: Avoid pulling the crown out with excessive force. When setting the time or date, pull gently to each position and ensure the crown is fully pushed in after adjustments to maintain water resistance.
- Servicing: We recommend having your automatic watch serviced every 3-5 years by a qualified watchmaker. This includes movement cleaning, lubrication, gasket replacement, and water resistance testing. Cassim & Co. offers professional servicing for all Ingersoll timepieces.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep your watch away from strong magnetic sources such as speakers, mobile phones, laptop computers, and magnetic clasps, as these can affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperature changes or prolonged direct sunlight, as this can affect the movement's accuracy and damage seals over time.
