CL shares his excitement about acquiring a Habring² monopusher chronograph, a piece he secured through a friend in Tokyo. His initial impressions highlight the watch's vintage aesthetic and the robust, reliable feel of its monopusher mechanism. This post offers a collector's firsthand experience with a limited-edition independent watch.

My friend from Tokyo helps me to secure this piece from Shellman. The watch is very beautiful and it ooozes vintage vibe. The mono pusher is stiff but it does not take away the fun. The activation is firm and it does not make the chrono hand jump out of time. It feels very reliable and robust. I love it !!!

I suppose it is still build on the 7750? So yes pushers will not be very subtle but who cares with this look! Dirk

That's one of the reason why I wanted this piece. It is the most used movement and wonderfully modified by Habring . It has a wonderful history too, starting from 1973. Only 5 pieces I believe all are taken.
