Lip Himalaya - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

The LIP Himalaya 40mm Automatic Day/Date is an elegant and timeless watch that embodies the renewal of LIP’s expertise. Inspired by the legendary history of Himalaya watches, renowned for their robustness and precision, this modernized version remains faithful to the spirit of adventure that made them famous. Featuring a 40mm polished and brushed 316L stainless steel case and sapphire crystal, this watch is distinguished by its clean dial, offering good readability. The day/date display adds a touch of practicality, ideal for everyday use. Powered by a Miyota 9132 automatic movement visible through a transparent caseback, it combines tradition and contemporary technology. With its classic design and premium leather strap, the LIP Himalaya 40mm Automatic Day/Date is the perfect choice for those looking for a distinguished and versatile watch, whether for the office or for a mountain getaway.

Magnificent version of LIP Himalaya, with its UFO case and its very refined dial. The sunray is strongly accentuated here, with shades ranging from steel gray to anthracite gray which gives a splendid depth effect; and often a "smoked dial" effect. All the rest of the watch is gold plated, and the whole thing catches the light well without being bling-bling. Very pure design therefore, without frills, but with a small bright orange second hand which gives a little boost to the whole, without distorting the original spirit of the watch. Very successful. Only small downside: a crown a little small and too integrated, therefore difficult to wind (manual winding).

(LIP Himalaya blue hourglass; Ref: 67575). This is a gift from my wife for our wedding anniversary. This watch is very elegant and catches the eye thanks to its mirror-polished case and its beautifully skeletonized blue dial. Its domed sapphire crystal, applied indexes and very particular skeletonization give it a lot of elegance. The open back shows us the Myota 8N24 caliber (a bit of a shame..) but which works perfectly and whose rotor is a real spinning top... The brown leather strap is of good quality and very comfortable. This is one of the many modern variations of Maurice Herzog's Himalaya and it is always very rewarding to wear a watch with such historical heritage. A beautiful dress watch for less than €400!
