MICRO-ROTOR AUTOMATIC WATCHES

Henzi & Pfaff "The Watch That Went Up the Mountain" ⏱️

Experience the legacy with Henzi & Pfaff's remarkable timepiece, inspired by the original watch that braved the heights of Nanga Parbat. This watch is a tribute to the climbers who never returned, featuring a distinct dial and hands reminiscent of the historic model. Adorned with numeral indexes at 3, 6, 9, and 12 hours, a bright white dial, "sword" hands, and a striking dark blood red second hand, this watch is a testament to courage and craftsmanship.

The Movement 🏔️

Crafted from scratch, the movement of this watch showcases luxury through its unique micro-rotor mechanism. Unlike conventional designs, the rotor is placed between the bridges, highlighting the alpinism aspect with engraved height lines of Nanga Parbat, filled with BGW9 SuperLuminova that glows bright blue at night, symbolizing the mountain's permafrost.
