The "2" stands for the two Habrings in the company...
...Richard Habring, and his wife Maria. They work together to make their brand, Habring2, a reflection of their shared philosophies IMO.

What s your wish list?
After months and months changing my mind every 5 minutes here is my wish list for the future.Probably it will change again due to new releases but I'm confident that it will be very hard to replace one of the following watches as" I've been loving them to...
I really like your list.
Mo, you have a very good taste ! I have only one target: My dream watch ! Fr.Xavier...
Good Xavier...
So we don t have to argue about the model... It s a beauty.I'll PM you some infos about it soon my friend.Mo
A Dreamlist from a pauper
1) PP 5002 2) HW OPus V 3) JLC Reverso Triptyque 4) UN Freak Silicium 5) C1 Quanutm Gravity Maybe Warren Buffet would buy these? In the meantime....Dream...... PAt
If we're playing...
with play money: DeBethune DB15 - my favorite QP ever Journe Tourbillon - Either the old or the new, I'm not that picky Patek 5110 - Not as implausable as the rest, I've just never gotten around to it And to launch far out into imagination: RD Sympathie C...
Mo, that's amazing!
With the exception of the DB25, every one on your list would be on mine. (Not that I don't like the DB25.) I would replace it on my list with a Moser Perpetual 1. If someone handed me a check for the purchase price and said I must spend it on a watch, the...
What the.......
Incredible again,,,,,I didn t put Kari as all the observatoires are spoken for so no point to put it on the list!!!!!!!I can t believe it ...are you sure we can t agree on the DB or Moser?????Ha ha ...this is fun.......Mo.
Dreams make you work harder!!!
When dreams and wishes blur into each other its great to dream.You can only dream what you might be able to get....who knows..not all at once...sometimes the hunt is worth more than the catch Nico. If it was a pure dream list I would ve thrown in the Luna...
So, ok, I got it, Mo
So, for me: 1/ PP 5100 ( WG ). 2/ Lange 1815 Moonphase ( platinum ) 3/ JLC Polaris 65 original gilt indexes and brown dial. 4/ Vacheron Chronometre Royal platinum. 5/ G.O PanoInverse WG. Crazy DReam List would be: 1/ PP 5102 WG. 2/ JLC Gyro I. 3/ VC Minut...
The first list is what I meant.....
I didn t think you liked the Go PI ,I thought your eyes were on the rattrappante ........as far as your DREAM list ....wow now that is daydreaming ,Id set for the PP and close second the Gyro 1.Why not the whole hybris mechanica????Still prefear the reg G...
I like the GO Rattrapante, too, but I had to make a severe selection!
Well, the Hybris Mechanica is not a Dream, but a pure nightmare! A Grande Sonnerie is magic, but I'm so in love with my MMR, too. So, A Gyro I and a PP 5102 G woiuld allow me to save for the other pieces of my Dream List... You see...I'm reasonnable even ...
Well, I still have to decide which Rattrapante
Will be MY Rattrapante, so, for the moment, it is not already in my wish list. Once I' ll make the final choice, it will directly go on the top of my wish list, as I really want to close my Chrono Collection. Best, Nicolas
The rattrapante choice...
is a tough one. It HAS TO be a masterpiece . If you are not completely convinced, just wait... best my friend Francois
Me too!
I tried on a RG silver dial piece earlier this week and despite its size and my small wrist, because of the curved sapphire back, it sits very snugly on my wrist. It also look much much better in the metal than on th enet. I'm on queue for the PT grey dia...
"A nun of simple tastes..."
This would be nice... [sorry - photo from this site, but name of OP lost in sands of time...] This would be manna from Heaven.... [photo: FPJ for Ian Skellern??] And THIS ? This would be an immediate end to the collecting sickness... [photos: chronomania]...
My list(s)
Fun game, Mo! I love many of the watches on your list! We often have similar tastes it seems. Here are my lists -- one for when my eyes are still closed and I float inside my perfect dreamspace; the other for when my alarm clock has already buzzed me into...
Funny, Daos
In your lists, the selection is about the same brands, at a different level! Excedllent taste! Best, Nicolas
:-) Thanks, Nicolas!
There are so many watches worth dreaming about. It's nice to have some reach goals, and hopefully if I work hard, and save a bit here and there, I can pick up some watches from both my lists over time! I'm in the process of making a big residential purcha...

MMR titanium is a beauty!
I love when Nicolas posts pictures of his. I like the platinum and rose gold MMR Antoine LeCoultres also. Cheers, Daos

Ladies and Gents wouldn it be great if..
We could collect as many wish lists as possible and make a survey on brands and models,see which ones are more frequent and maybe elect the PuristsPro watches of the year!!!!!Now that s an award.Mo.
I'm in...Mo
We have to synchronize it, I mean to put a thread about the favourite watch of each brand in each brand forum at the same moment. BUT, I think it will be difficult to just choose one in each brand. Best, Nicolas
Was just my morning thought...
now we have to fine tune it.......organization skills!!!!!!
PuristSPro Watch of the Year
What if we choose a watch of the year from a list of new models for the year? Each forum could nominate a watch, and those winners would be voted upon formally by the membership. Best, Jed
I have no "wish list" at all - lucky me?
Reading the spectacular wish list of some of you, I have to admit, I do not have one! This surely seems to be very decent, but in fact it isn´t - as a new "Watch of interest" appears as soon as another one entered the collection or the "watch pool". ...
