HD1 "Chrome" Watch

The Watch

French brand Humbert-Droz tells the story of four generations of passionate craftsmen dedicated to the art of watchmaking. For over 60 years, the house has channeled its expertise into charming, distinctive timepieces. The stunning Chrome watch presented here belongs to the HD1 collection. Offered as a limited edition of 200 pieces, it features a cushion-shaped case in 316L stainless steel with a black PVD surface treatment and 4 screws. With a silver-tone, brushed finish, the case measures 43 mm in diameter and 13.5 mm thick - dimensions perfectly suited to men's wrists. The dial is protected by a mineral crystal that lets you admire its full splendor, while a black carbon screw-down crown at 3 o'clock allows you to set the hours and minutes. The movement is visible through the central opening of the screw-down caseback, which ensures water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

A symbol of renewal, the deep green of this dial adds a charming touch to this watch. Round in shape, it features a sunray finish that enhances its beauty and presents clear time indicators for easy reading. The outer ring is graduated in increments of 5 with batons and 10 with Arabic numerals, encircling a white minute railway track. At 12 o'clock, an open heart reveals the movement's gears. Two sword-shaped hands at the center display the hours and minutes, while a slender arrow-tipped hand tracks the seconds. Crafted in satin-finish steel, all hands feature luminova treatment for readability in low-light conditions. The hours are marked by baton indexes alongside silver Arabic numerals at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock. The movement name and brand name are inscribed at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Swiss-made, this watch houses an automatic ETA 2824 movement. Fitted with 25 jewels and beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, it reliably drives the hour and minute hands, offering a power reserve of 38 hours.

The Strap

This watch comes with a black bovine leather strap with a carbon finish. It is accented by black stitching and features French flag-colored seams along the right side. With a 24 mm lug width, it adorns your wrist attractively while adding elegance to any outfit. It fastens with a stainless steel deployant buckle.

Water Resistance

With water resistance of 100 meters - or 10 ATM in watchmaking terms - this proud-looking timepiece performs just as well at a gala as it does in the water. Feel free to wear it in the shower, the bath, or even during your most energetic swim sessions. Keep in mind, however, that our team of watch experts confirms this model is not designed for scuba diving - freediving or tank diving alike - nor for use with high-pressure washers. Remember: showers, baths, and swimming only - and never operate the pushers or crown while submerged!
