The Habring2 Ladies watches
Lastly I'd like to present the new, smaller case Habring2 offer. Catering both for female wrists as well as for people with smaller wrists, Maria and Richard decided to offer their manufacture movement in a 36mm (compared to the normal 42mm) case.
For reasons of dimensions only manual-wound movements are available, but can be had as a Time Only, Time Only Date or Time Only Jumping Seconds. The first and the last are shown here:
The 'Little' Time Only is the essential small Habring2 watch.
The new smaller case tightly enclosed the movement:
The movement is the same Cal. A09 as the larger 42mm version:
The second model I'd like to show (and prefer due to its symmetric dial design!) is the 'Littlke' Jumping Seconds', also in 36mm. A fine small complication for ladies!
Isn't it gorgeous on (my girlfriend's, which BTW probably was not such a brilliant idea ;-)) wrist?
With these impression I'd like to wish you happy Easter/Passover days and kindly ask you to stay tuned for the last installment, Part 3b, which will follow next week!
Cheers and thanks for viewing,
Magnus

Wonderful posts--do you know...
Do you know whether the jumping seconds mechanism can be added to an existing Unitas 6497 movement? DJK
Naturally, this is my favorite!
The blued second hand is the best variant if I do say so myself, LOL! One thing that a Habring dead seconds does that is extremely vital in this complication is that it stops DEAD right on the minute indicator -- the jump is strong, clean and lands exactl...
