This is a gem of a watch
befitting the celebration of a wonderful event.
I particularly like the combination of the nearly complimentary colours of blue and rose gold, the dareness and interest of the open dial, alluring to Habrings celebrated open tourbillon. It is a watch full of character, I love it. Wear it in good health.
New arrival unveiling!
I've never done an unveiling post, but I like to read them, so here goes. This watch has been a long time in the making, first because it marks an 8-year personal accomplishment, and second because it was created by the Richard and Maria Habring in collab...
Very, very nice, Daniel...
...and it is difficult to imagine a more fitting way to mark the conferral of your degree than a 'bespoke' watch of that calibre. Congratulations, on both counts. By the way: what was the topic of your PhD? Cheers, pplater.
Thank you! And thanks for asking--the title is...
Sittlichkeit and the Ancient View of the Self in Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit The PhD is in Philosophy, and I work primarily in ethics and 19th Century German philosophy. I couldn't be more pleased with the watch--it wasn't where I expected to end up a...

Phenomenology? That's an -ology, right? So, it must be a good thing. Congratulations on the -ology and the watch! Regards, MTF

Well Done Daniel, On the PhD. On choosing the Habring's to work with. And on the watch itself. Very original, very memorable. I enjoy the red-goldish accents paired with the blued indices ring. I would never have thought it would work well together. But i...
A hearty contragulations on a wonderful timepiece.....
I too am drawn to the Habrings' watches, and this one is very cool! (and unique) I'm sure you'll enjoy this timepiece for many years to come. Thanks for the great post. Darren
Congratulations
It looks stupendous. I am very happy for you. Cannot waite to hear about the next project. Best regards, George
The absence of text . . .
. . . is a deft touch, Daniel. For those of us familiar with the Habrings' work, it's easily identifiable as theirs; for those "outside the pale", the script-less dial projects a sense of mystery. Cordially, Art
Congratulations on your watch.
Seeing your post reminded me of when I received mine. I found the suspended packaging a bit of a marvel too! Wonderful of the Habrings to give you a complimentary strap but that doesn't surprise me. Wear it with pride. A personalised watch to treasure for...
