Exclusively made by an individual watchmaker for an individual customer. From the first gearwheel to the very last screw, and there are a lot of parts in a watch, until it’s new owner can wear it on his wrist.“Made by hand” is a luxury which only very few manufacturers can afford today, even among the famous brands. And how could it be otherwise, as they are producing many thousand watches per year? Hentschel Hamburg approaches this matter from a different angle. Watchmaking has an almost millennial tradition. Many ingenious watchmakers have devoted their entire creative career to a single movement detail and by this developed, over generations, a perfect and nearly wear-free mechanic organism.
Every detail has an important function. Nothing can be left out without disturbing the perfection of it as a whole. Because of the automation of the watch industry and the widespread employment of computerized fabrication, a lot of traditional watchmaking skills fell into oblivion. These skills are very difficult to master and time consuming as well. Watchmakers who are performing immaculate finishes, like screwed golden Chatons or cut decorations, are scarce and can’t be found easily.
But only because Hentschel Hamburg is putting this century-old expert knowledge into practice, by they able to comply with the highest standards and build a truly fine mechanical watch, which can accompany it’s owner for a lifetime. In this way unique pieces and limited editions are made in Hentschel Hamburg manufactory, which gives you the certainty to wear something truly exquisite on your wrist.
