The watch shown is the H69439931.

How to recognise one

Five marks make the look. The count says how many of the 2 homages keep each one.

  • Large Arabic numerals

    Big white Arabic numerals mark all twelve hours on a black dial.

  • Inner 24-hour ring

    A smaller ring of numbers from 13 to 24 sits inside the hour numerals.

  • Triangles on the minute track

    Lumed triangles mark the five-minute points on the outer minute track.

  • Sword hands

    Hour and minute hands taper to a point, filled with cream lume.

  • Fabric strap

    A green woven strap runs through the case with no bracelet.

Each close-up covers about 12.5 mm of watch, using the listed case width and estimated photo edges.
