Characteristics

MODEL DESCRIPTION

The Humbert-Droz HD7 Tachymeter embodies the perfect union of watchmaking tradition and functional measuring instrument. With its 47 mm steel case, its dial combining carbon and brushed steel, and its assertive presence on the wrist, it appeals to watch enthusiasts who appreciate both technical and expressive timepieces. Its tachymeter function, inherited from chronometers of yesteryear, allows for precise measurement of speed, making it a watch as vibrant as its wearer. A blend of innovation, performance, and character, the HD7 is a watch that transcends the simple act of telling time to become a reflection of the wearer's lifestyle.

THE DIAL

The HD7 Tachymeter's carbon-effect dial comes alive around three gray subdials, each expressing a different facet of the chronograph. A vibrant and precise central red hand orchestrates the entire display, marking the passage of time with intensity. On the flange sits the iconic element of this creation: the tachymeter scale, a true signature of its identity. Simply start the chronograph, wait 30 seconds, then stop it, and the scale will indicate the speed of movement, making this unique function a subtle link between the mechanics of time and the movements of the wearer.

THE MOVEMENT

Visible through the transparent case back, the Swiss ETA 7753 automatic movement reveals the elegance of its mechanics: blued screws, gold-colored gears, and rubies dance in perfect harmony, where each component finds its place in a meticulously choreographed sequence. Beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, this caliber embodies horological mastery and offers smooth, regular, and reliable timekeeping for everyday wear.

THE BRACELET

The HD7 features a leather strap with a carbon fiber pattern, giving it a technical look that perfectly matches the watch's sporty and modern DNA. This bold design evokes high-performance materials while highlighting the contemporary elegance of this exceptional chronograph. Supple and durable, this strap ensures optimal comfort on the wrist every day. This model also comes with a second strap in black Cordura fabric, renowned for its durability and comfort. Its white stitching adds a touch of subtle elegance, perfect for those moments of action.

WATERPROOFNESS

The HD7 doesn't have the DNA of a dive watch and doesn't claim to. However, its 5 ATM (50-meter) water resistance offers peace of mind, allowing you to wear your watch every day without worrying about rain or even splashes. O'Clock Store recommends removing it before showering.

Tachymeter and Carbon Dial

The HD7 Tachymeter's carbon and steel dial plays on contrasting textures to offer a look that is both technical and assertive. Equipped with a tachymeter scale, this dial allows for precise measurement of speed, reminiscent of chronometers of yesteryear, reinterpreted in a modern style. A perfect blend of watchmaking tradition and innovation, the HD7 embodies a contemporary design conceived for those who appreciate watches with character, both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Reliable Automatic Movement

The HD7 Tachymeter "Steel" is powered by a Swiss automatic movement designed for precision, reliability, and longevity. Its bidirectional winding system harnesses every wrist movement to maintain a stable and usable power reserve for everyday use. Visible through the transparent case back, the movement reveals its meticulous finishing and its engraved and openworked oscillating weight, reflecting Humbert-Droz's passion for mechanics. A rigorous and expressive horological heart, designed for those who appreciate technical expertise as much as the beauty of watchmaking details.
