* After the success of the original Habring2 Foudroyante released in 2010, which featured a unique dead beat centre second hand with flashing 1/8 second sub-dial, this innovative company has furthered the design with Foudroyante-Felix Date. This model houses the company's in-house developed A11FD movement with an added pointer date complication. Truly incredible craftmanship paired with subtle design features, Foudroyante-Felix Date is yet another superb addition to this small company's already wonderful collection.

 

* This particular model uses the A11FD manual wind movement, visible through the sapphire glass back and features a beautiful metallic silver dial with rose gold plated hands and comes fitted to a tan brown leather strap. 

 

* Please note, due to their popularity and the fact that Habring only produce around 200 watches per year, keeping regular stock in-store is difficult. Although all watches showing 'Out Of Stock' are on order, it is strongly recommended that you contact us prior to any delivery from Habring to ensure the watch you like is put in your name.

Habring² can quite possibly lay claim to being the smallest watch manufacturer in the world, certainly the only watch manufacturer in Austria!

 

Maria and Richard Habring, who are the driving force behind Habring² founded the company in 1997 Volkermarkt, Austria in a fourth and fifth floor studio surrounded by lakes and mountains and proceeded to develop and produce a range of fine mechanical watches for which Austria was once so famous back in the 19th century.

 

Habring² produce a range of technically inventive mechanical watches such as tourbillons, the previously world exclusive and now much copied jumping second and a range of chronographs, which all share a classic, timeless design and are characterised by reliability and suitability for everyday wear.

 

Richard Habring, who’s career started as a watchmaker under his mentor Günter Blümlein at IWC played a major role in the development of the double chronograph and is now, with his wife Maria reconnecting with the great Austrian history of watchmaking by producing their own range of excellent mechanical wristwatches.
