Herbelin Newport - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

I have owned this watch for several years and it remains my favorite watch. I spent many months looking for this watch released in 2018 for the 40th anniversary of the Newport model. Equipped with an ETA 2824-2, this watch is reliable and perfectly meets my personal expectations in terms of precision. On the other hand, its brushed carbon dial and nickel indexes/hands are to die for! With its FKM rubber strap, it is very comfortable to wear and can even be forgotten on the wrist. I wear this watch on all occasions and with several outfits as I find it stealthy. In short, I love this watch and I hope everyone discovers this brand which does not have the success it deserves in my opinion...

This limited and numbered Newport series has a sunray dial as I like them, still stamped with the Michel Herbelin brand, now Herbelin. It constantly reacts differently to light exposure, you have to take a little time to discover all the finishing details that make it very endearing: The raised indexes, the red cross on the dial, the finesse of the second hand, the machining of the case, .. I would have liked to have a solid back because the movement is not very worked. The precision is worthy of a COSC. The cushion case and the magnificent bracelet make it super comfortable. It is a watch that I wear rather in the summer.
