The Henry story began with two young fashion designers exploring London’s many vintage districts searching for inspiration. On one such visit to the famous Portobello Road street market in London’s Notting Hill, two designers came across a beautifully styled, classic Swiss wristwatch which had the words ‘Henry, August 1965’ enigmatically engraved on the case back. Although suffering the ravages of time, the watch still typified the craftsmanship and quality of a bygone age. With both of them wanting to wear this priceless possession, the couple thought about recreating Henry’s watch for today’s generation. Which resulted in the birth of Henry London. Romantically so, exactly 50 years since the original precious watch was created.
The Henry London collection is the result of meticulous research, culminating in a perfect marriage of the technical with the aesthetic. The designers of Henry London have utilised cutting-edge technology to create watches with a level of precision and reliability, which far exceeds that of their mid-century predecessor, yet do not compromise on style and design. The collection follows traditional styling, crafted from stainless steel. The bracelets are constructed from high quality stainless steel Milanese mesh; whilst straps are made from the finest of softs leathers, carefully dyed to a bespoke palette of heritage shades.
The finishing touch to all Henry London watches is a beautifully designed stainless steel case back bearing inscription inspired by the original watch, additionally there is also the option to have a personal sentiment engraved.
