My latest concept dive watch designs have just gone through the final tweaks and the GD MØ for German watch company, LÖWE, are at the watchmakers and we should hopefully be seeing prototypes in spring 2023, early summer at the latest. We are aiming to get these in production by Q4 2023, if all goes to plan depending on Swiss movement lead times.
LÖWE is a new microbrand and has very ambitious plans for the future. They are definitely starting out right by getting me to help design their first watch and wanting to produce a quality time piece. The GD MØ is the first in a range of watch they hope to release over the coming years. Unfortunately I can't reveal more right now, or show the watch just yet, watch this space as they say. More information will be coming in 2023... These are going to be absolutely stunning when made. Yes I know, I say this every time I do a new watch design, well they all are stunning in their own unique way.. The dive watch that is as elegant as it is sporty.Launched at the beginning of 2022 has been a successful watch design and proved quite popular.
The T2 was launched in 7 colourways, many have sold out on the first batch run. Find out more here or visit the Heinrich website to purchase. The Heinrich T2 (Taucher 2) is a beautiful well made 70's retro watch, a future classic, finished to a high standard, as one comes to expect being made in Germany. I haven't stopped wearing my production black dial version since receiving it. It is so comfortable one forgets it is on ones wrist. The new improved bracelet end links help the watch wrap around the wrist. Clever design, I'd say ;-) The lume is very good, it has a very strong glow and lasts through the night. A fabulous little watch indeed! In the new year we'll be hopefully launching a new GMT version of the T2, which I'm looking forward to. We have lost of exciting new designs coming out next year, I can't wait to see them in the flesh and see what everyone thinks! The New Flieger design for 2023, Heinrich Watches, with a 200 Meter water resistant rating.20/12/2022
Heading towards final stage of design tweaks prior to prototypes being made for the new Heinrich Flieger.
The original Concept Designs were started in January 2022. This will be a very nice watch when made. It will also be 20ATM water resistant, so a very practical Flieger with dive rating water resistance. Watch will be launched during 2023. I'm really looking forward to this model launching, I've always wanted a cool Flieger, but non are water resistant enough for me. I expect to be able to dive in any watch I wear. Is this the first dive rated Flieger I wonder. Find out more here Recent work for Neil Bottle, design of postcard, Label and business card with his textile design work on.
www.neilbottle.co.uk/ Now having got my hands on the prototype of the Heinrich Taucher 2 I'm extremely please how my design translated into reality. The build quality and attention to detail is very good, which as a designer one is always worried about, Wolfgang has done a great job with this. The watch looks fabulous in the flesh, but is proving very hard to photograph and do true justice in a picture.
When I set out to design this watch I wanted it to not only look stunning and unique , but I wanted it to wrap my 7 inch wrist so it sat comfortable without swinging around, and it sure does. I also wanted to make a dive watch design look more dressy to wear at any occasion and think we have achieved that, although I personally live in jeans and never wear a suit. I hope Wolfgang does well with this new watch. For more information or to pre-order the watch visit: https://heinrich.watch/collections/watches #divewatches #conceptwatchdesign #watchdesigner #heinrichwatches We worked throughout 2021 finalising the design and getting the watch to the prototype stage.
The Taucher 2 is not just an update to Wolfgang's original Taucher, it is a completely new watch with a sophisticated design. However what is kept the same is the spirit and love for 70s watch designs and the ambition to create a unique looking watch and not just another homage. Wolfgang Heinrich and myself are very proud to present our new dive watch. An early watch review can be seen here Taucher 2 Specs
