Really looking forward to seeing this beauty! Wolfgang has just shipped it.

I've always loved orange as a colour, especially as a dial colour. Well, it dates back to my days working for DOXA, who cannot like orange! But this is a bit more unique than just orange panted dial as the Carnelian stone changes colours depending on the lighting condition.

​I'm really intrigued to see what it is like.

The Helicoprion with carnelian dial.
The use of gemstones in dials became especially popular in the 1970s, when the desire for individuality and exclusive design increased. Fitting with our brand philosophy, we bring back this era with this limited series. Carnelian is typically orange to reddish brown. Its colour results from iron oxides in the stone.

Each dial is unique, coated with the natural colours and patterns of the carnelian. Carnelian stands for energy, creativity and vitality - perfect qualities for your daily companion.

This version of the Helicoprion is only offered with the SW200-1 Elaboré.
Price: €974 EUR incl. VAT
​Available from 29.07.2024 from Heinrich. watch
​
Limited production of 100 pieces. 50 watches with carnelian leaf and 50 watches with lapislazuli leaf will be available immediately.

Great watch review of the new Heinrich Helicoprion that I designed for Wolfgang.

I'm very excited about one of my latest watch designs being launched, the Helicoprion is a really stunner in the flesh. I got to see the watch for the first time at the World Time UK show when I met up with Wolfgang.
I know, I'm more known for dive watch designs, but this still retains a dive watches DNA. Well, what would one expect when both Wolfgang and myself are both scuba divers  ;-)​

The build quality and finish on these new timepieces is absolutely stunning and has done true justice to my original design concept. We've not held back on this watch. The concept was to create a more dressy luxury timepieces with beautiful polished bevelled edges, and a touch of class, but also a practical tough watch than one can were even when diving.

Wolfgang and myself at the World Time UK watch show on Saturday.

Had a great day at World Time UK yesterday meeting up with friends and clients.

First time meeting Andreas, we normally chat on Facebook.

It was great to catch up with Rick. We have working together since 2004, so 19 years now!

First time meeting Wolfgang in person, we usually talk via Zoom.

A few more pictures of the upcoming T3 LX and Sport. Two distinctively different look watches, the Sports and the LX, one for play one for that more formal occasion.
​ 
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on these.

This year is very exciting indeed, I have numerous new watch designs being released for several clients...

One is launching very soon. Follow heinrichwatches for more launch date information or visit https://heinrich.watch/ to find out more.

I only work with brands I totally believe in, and who produce great quality products, German company Heinrich Watches is one of these brands.

Let's face it, it's my reputation at stake as much as the brands. It matters to me as much as my clients, if not probably more so.
