Thanks Mike.
I was very much searching for this Habring reference, but as is often the case it was a long term project which I didn’t think needed any urgency. Of course in that time our little watch world saw significant increases in interest across a wide selection of brands and as it turns out Habring has seen some of that increased demand too and so what I thought would be a quick email to Maria, some back and forth on customizing a dial and having a watch in hand a few months later turned out not to be possible any more. I guess I was then lucky that this one came along and was to my liking, very happy to have this one and to finally have a Habring.
Incoming : Habring2 x SJX
Perhaps interesting timing given the debate going on in another thread this week about collaborative efforts between watchmakers / brands and other interested parties. Does this one fit under the enthusiast groups which seem to be OK or is this a commerci...
Congrats Jay.
You bought with your heart, and that always leads to a wonderful long-term ownership experience. Even though the watch doesn’t speak to me, I fully fathom how it must be breathtaking in person (dark blue contrasting with those golden stars). So I look for...
It’s definitely not for everyone, this iteration.
But that’s the beauty in these small runs, you don’t have to consider the wider watch buying public. In this case it’s just 50 pieces and that’s an easy enough ask with a global audience (in SJX’s case). When I get some regular wrist time I will let you k...
👍🏻
In person in the metal I have to say I’m pretty happy with it. As I mentioned above, the dial may not be to everyone’s taste but for me I’m really into it.
Congrats Jay
Beautiful piece. I like JX a lot, from my earlier interactions with him. He is a gentleman and was very patient with the younger me. Don’t see him post here now, but I read his website from time to time. His articles are of high quality. It does look like...
The Stars are the feature of the dial, and the dead seconds the feature of the watch.
I do think they did well with the concept and execution here. It’s on the dressier side perhaps, but a strap change might alter that. I will admit that SJX is a regular read for me, perhaps the only one among their peers I read regularly.
Huge congrats.
Gorgeous H2 . Really like there watches a lot and this is a beautiful example
Thanks. A little different is often a good thing.
Especially when it doesn’t need to be the only watch.
Big big congrats to you
Your enthusiasm strikes from your post and this is all that counts, passion is everything and this H2 is very cool I like it a lot, to be seen in the metal 👌👌👌. Big congrats to you, wear it in the very best of your health !
Thanks Mike.

Amazing timepiece.
I love this one almost immediately when I first say it. Well done. Darren
Thanks Darren. As I said above I think they did a fine job with this one.
For me, I was more satisfied with it once it was in my hand than what I had expected. Always a good outcome.
congratulations !
enjoy in the best health...I love the blue...Habring is a great value. Best, mahesh.,
Thanks Mahesh.
Habring was on the list for some time, and I think another wouldn’t be something I’d rule out in the future. I have been very happy with the case, the size and overall construction/finish.
