Today I share some pictures of three Hentschel H2 Sport watches, showing the different appearance a classic H2 can achieve by adding a nicely engraved bezel and combining this with various materials, dials, hands and straps.










Through different styles of photography hopefully the strong character of the watches and their versatility come through...









The H2 Sport is powered by the same inhouse calibre 1130 we have already seen with the classic H2. The blued screws holding the caseback are PVD treated, those blue screws in the movement are of course heat blued.





You'll find the same attention to detail Andreas Hentschel puts on the design of the watch. The anti reflective domed crystal in combination with the domed dial and the nicely curved hands gives the impression of 'a dial growing out of the case'...









The two bronze watches show their versatility on a Nato strap and a mesh bracelet, the steel version works well on a classic racing calf leather strap. There are indeed many ways to wear a classic watch. 
For today I close with some additional photos, hope you enjoy!





















Have a great weekend!

Cheers 
Henrik

Sport? Yes why not! But really elegant timepiece too.

Best wishes Alkiro

Yes, it could be named differently...

... the idea behind the name H2 Sport is to emphasise that it is a watch feasible for any circumstances, with the aspect of the larger bezel to protect the case and glass from any mishaps ;-) Cheers Henrik
