    Habring2 Erwin “Star” – SJX Edition One

    So SJX launched a released with Habring2 to celebrate their 10th anniversary.

    What is everyone's thoughts on Habring2 and this limited release? SJX have always one of the best with their editorials & not main stream like hodinkee so this might not have the buzz of their releases or the latest Ming MLabs release

    I wish it had hands / markers the same colour as the case, otherwise love the blue dial and the rest. Way too dressy for me though ..

    I generally like Habring watches but this is a bit bling for my taste. The movement / rear of the case is better looking than the dial side.

    It looks like this dial may not be popular in the UK.

    Love the brand, they put it some absolutely beautiful watches, this one doesn't do much for me though. Not keen on the markers, it just doesn't all gell together for my taste.

    Their movements always did seem a bit industrial to my eyes but I still loved the work they did. That dial is a bit of an eyesore though, sorry.

    I think it is great - Not one for me but nice to see Habring bring in some well finished applied indices which would really improve some of their existing offerings to me.
    They seem to have upped their game with movement style / finishing as well in recent photos I've seen. Bodes well for future releases.

    The stars are bad enough but the awkward little lume dots somehow drag it even lower. Sorry, but just looks like hideous blingy tat H Samuel wouldn't even stock. I don't know why Habring said yes to that.

    That was part of the design inspiration

    What is it good for - absolutely nothing.

    Sorry, that was Edwin Star.

    Absolutely bloody gorgeous! But as already mentioned, shame the hands and indices aren't the same colour as the case.
