Habring Felix
Hello Everyone, New member here from Italy. I've been on watch forums for a number of years, but never had the pleasure of stumbling across watchprosite until I purchased a Habring Felix last autumn. Now, I basically live here in the Independents forum. A lot of members have some truly amazing collections. So, without further ado, a wristshot and I look forward to tapping into your wealth of information and advice.

Warm welcome here!
Great watch from one of my favourite independent brand! Yours, Adam
Welcome Asonstuf!
And what an entrance with the Felix! A watch I very much admire and a great example of what is so cool about the brand! Hope to soon find the time for a visit to Völkermarkt Hope to see much more of your Felix and any other watches you may have here and a...
Thanks!
What a nice welcome. I had such a great experience with the Habrings that I cannot get independent watchmaking out of my head! Besides two sentimental watches, this is the collection, ha ha! It is posing a problem, however. When buying I was convinced it ...
There's a lot of independent watchmaking
So you will surely find whatever you desire Was actually thinking of getting the Felix as a more formal watch as well, so interested in your experiences there
Beautiful watch
Just the style I like...and I'm with you on the Independent focus. Cheers!
A great watch
and welcome here. Habring is all about understated values and intrinsic watchmaking, and I can understand the passion. Looking forward to seeing more of this one here.
Precisely the reason I found Habring
After a few years of buying and flipping watches, I took a step back and asked myself what I really wanted from this hobby. These reflections led me to Habring 2 as they really are a mirror of the way I've become over the years. Living in Italy I understa...
A milestone from a really admirable brand
Congratulations Asonstuf. That's a very nice watch from a brand that I respect a lot. Mr Habring's background is nothing short of impressive. And the Habrings seem like genuinely good people. Eager to see how the A-11 movement will evolve. Ken
A great milestone of theirs
Yes, you're right. 10 years! It was only fitting that my 10 year anniversary is coming up. How could I refuse?
welcome and congrats
that is a truly stunning watch. their double split chrono is an all-time favorite of mine, and lovely people too
It's on my shortlist
If it can stay around 12mm thick with the new movement, it will be hard to say no
Wonderful watch/strap/shirt/jumper combination, and some fine details...
I missed before: - the lowered logo on the movement - the engraved balance cock Are both tailor-made customisations? Best (and congrats!), Magnus
I'm not sure about the logo
As we didn't speak about that and it seems to be what they are doing as of late. I don't mind it. It breaks up the plane a bit so is a bit more interesting. Originally, I had asked for some engravings on the movement plate, but Maria said it would be a bi...
Indeed!
But I didn't want to overly complicate things and in the end she was right. As a first venture into the 'possibilities', I think it was a good first step.
