Though, I have been following the brand, through the various threads for a while now.

It has been recently that I have become a lot more interested in acquiring one. As I would like to add an Independent watch brand to my small collection.

I very much like the Doppel that you have shown us and with that colour combination.

But for my first and possibly only piece I am looking to purchase a dead second with an added complication.

Regards

but I am not so sure about the other Swatch Group brands (I am not doubting their technical capabilities but I think that the value equation is not as easily set as with the two mentioned). Perhaps I was not clear enough: for the money you have to spend f... 

An Independent vs Big Business

Yes Longines and Omega make good watches and have well known names. But with an independent one is investing in individuals. Yes each watchmaker (and even the brands, I admit) has their own spirit. The spirit of a Habring is in the touch of genius that Ri... 

Thank you Magnus, great report and very nice

pictures of the Doppel 3 and its character. I think you caught both the inventiveness and the quality that Habring2 is now quite famous for providing to the true watch collector. I have had few greater watch experiences than sitting in the atelier and dis... 

Thanks for the report...

... I really like what Habring2 offers. I also like the color combo as well as the matching strap on this one :-) Thanks! Ken
