Finally I got my first independent!
Hi all, I am sharing with you the latest addition to my collection. A Habring2 rattrapante!
I discovered the Habrings and their story when I bought my IWC Portuguese Rattrapante. I went on reading and discovered the Habring2 watches. When I saw they had the display back, I knew I wanted one. After several years of negotiations with my ‘Boss’, I got one! She had stolen’ the IWC a long time ago, claiming it suited better her wrist than mine. In the end I managed to get something in return!!! It will take the prime spot on my wrist for a while now! And I’ll now be able to experience too the pleasure of enjoying new ‘shoes’ once in a while.
Have a great weekend all.

Much pleasure with your first independent
It must be an immense feeling getting a first independent. I am wearing the watches from the big conglomerates like Richemont and the Swatch Group. In the footsteps of Bad Santa, the Habring2 Felix. Last, the story of the IWC Portuguese and your boss. She...
Thank you!
I have watches from the big houses. They are great and will always be. Yet there is something special about the Indies. It is great to have at least one if budget allows! I add a picture of the IWC. ...
If i choose
Two nice watches. Simply said, the watch style is perfect. My own words, it is the modern classic style. Can’t go wrong with both and the style of design. The verdict if i made a small contest, i torn a bit to the left watch. Maybe because i do not have a...
Super watch, and it looks great on the wrist.
What colour is the dial? It almost has a green hue in these pictures. It’s beautiful regardless. Also, this was your lucky post (number 88) !
The dial is grey
But it does not always come out like that on picture according to lighting. See how it was when I first check on the watch before buying it. ...
Habring2 is a hidden gem amongst independents.
Love the color palate of your rattrapante. Wear it in good health
Habring2 and Rattrapante are a match made in horological heaven!
Fantastic choice Tibo, especially love this dial color
That is a beautiful Habring.
My favorite version of that model, and just a flat out amazing timepiece. Congratulations. Darren
Thank you Darren.
I had my eyes as well on the salmon dial version but that colour did not pass the ‘approval committee’. I am equally happy with the grey dial! Tibo
