Continuing with being able to but not needing to know what the tides are like - with the Habring2 Aurora 🌊🇦🇹
Recently Velociphile - someone well known from the WPS past has assessed all the current and semi-current tide complication watches on IG and the Habring2 / cronotempVs Aurora came on top in terms of actual accuracy and usability. The fact that the tide complication (the paddle shaped hand) is not squeezed into a subdial but actually allows for a precise reading and that there is a moonphase to inform the likely severity of the tides were both elements in its favor.
Still a truly offbeat complication that only a handful of mechanical watches and few brands offer.
Be that as it may, it makes for a wonderful watch with moonphase, tide and a top seconds combination that is probably unique in this combination. And a huge pleasure on the wrist.
What are you sporting this weekend? 👋🏻

I like the term 😁
Also has an old school magnetic protection included, for those magnetically more severe polar climates 🧲❄️
👍🏻 I am maybe also sensitive to magnetic fields! It confirms me I need to have that…
Especially if you think about global warming and rising sea levels. You never can be quite sure if we in Switzerland 🇨🇭 will soon have beaches… 😅🥂😁 Ps: great watch! 👌🏻 Ps2: Here at my wrist the last couple of days my oldest companion: the GP Seahawk - no ...
A classic from another era 👍🏻👏🏻🌊
Not quite sure if the seaside is on the cards for Switzerland soon but a solid dive watch like yours is always a good choice 👌🏻🙌🏻 Thanks for joining in 🙏🏻
Sounds like a plan 👍🏻😂
I am surprised that a watch brand like Panerai, which was historically more marine focused, never made one 🤷🏻♂️ (or looking forward to someone showcasing the ones they did 😉)
Thanks Filip - utilized the sunshine 😁👍🏻
The watch works well with a wide variety of straps 😊👍🏻
A pleasure to see this one again.
Original and well designed. I wish you a great weekend (and my watch joins in—photo from yesterday). Best, Emmanuel ...
What a beautiful and clean and sharp looking Habring2 Aurora.
I really seem to like most if not all the Habring watches I have seen as there is just something about their design language that really speaks to me, the legibility and how clean and sharp the dials and watches look just makes for a great watch even if I...
It looks superb on your wrist, Marc 🙌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Cannot agree more on your verdict when it comes to Habring 👍🏻 And the Breguet is a real gem 💎
The elder brother 😊👍🏻❄️
I find the two make for a great pairing. Thanks for adding the cool picture of yours 👍🏻🙏🏻
I love your description of "being able to but not needing to know" what it displays.
The "being able to" is certainly the key to fun ...! Like owning a 1000m WR desk diver, a Pulsometer, or a "moonlight" function (Sinn) that tells you when you can go hunting nocturnally under the ambient lunar light.
The last one possibly being of use to those focusing on lume shots 😁
I really didn’t know about the moonlight complication - seems Sinn does them all (including a tide one) 👍🏻👏🏻 Thanks for teaching me something new today 👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks a lot, Larry 👍🏻🙏🏻
The strap does seem to complement the watch well enough and kind of fits the theme 😊👍🏻🌊
Now this I really like!
Great design from a great manufacture, and what an interesting complication that is. Is it waterproof? How big? Been wearing this for most of the week. Cheers! ...
Waterproof indeed 🌊
The case is 42mm in size 😊👍🏻 A really nice and timeless choice on your end 👌🏻
Such a great looking and beautiful H2 my friend
Was wearing this for the weekend. Till i had dinner with a very good friend and he was wearing this incredible Patek . ...
