Hentschel...from the archives !

 
 By: mahesh : February 21st, 2021-05:15
it is well over a year I've taken pics of this timepiece, yet the simplicity of this timepiece is something still in my memory !

what is not to love on this...blue hands, chronometer movement, railroad-minute tracker...no nonsense dial !!

it is hard to improve something so simple & classic, isn't it ?







Best,
mahesh.,

Yup, this is a nice looking one. Any picture of the back?

Fully agreed, these H1 are really nice (even if I would prefer some more life in the dial but I am sure this can be worked out...)

Indeed a very beautiful simply classy 3 hands watch

If I would dream of a way to make it irresistible then I would try to boost the energy of this beautiful yet (maybe too) classic dial.
With some more contrast and a touch of colour somewhere I am sure it could become a truly irresistible one... What do you think ?

absolutely...the current dial can be spiced up a bit 😜

the RED gives a great contrast to the dial color + the blue hands really brighten up smile

This is one of the most under rated German brands.  And you know my weakness for a simple three handed watch!  smile

can't agree more Sham !

we happened to meet the watchmakers in last Paris GTG (end-2019)...very nice people !
simple timepieces with chronometer performance + classic dials on top - showstopper in deed ;-)
Best,
mahesh.,

You right
