The Watch

He had a major role in the development of the double chronograph. With help from his wife, they are creating watches that continue the remarkable horology of Austria. It all started in 2005 when Habring² set a new standard for seconds accurately jumping.  In 2007 they were the first manufacturer to launch a movement with dead beat seconds. They won the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève in the category “La Petite Aiguille” in November 2013
