My newest watch from Windup show
My wife and I went to our first show. We had fun looking at all the watches. After 32 years of marriage she has a good idea about what my style is and steered me to some pretty cool watches. She picked a blue face dial Hesili but the champagne dial literal popped out of the corner of my eye. That was it. Had to have it.

I was so close to buying the Oak and Oscar GMT. It was sooo good. There is always next year!
Looks nice! Can't say I am familiar with the brand but I like how they tucked the date in at the six o'clock position. Enjoy!
I have the champagne dial and absolutely love it. I reviewed it for my blog a little while ago (warning: shameless promo AND long article: https://indiesandmicros.com/2022/07/field-report-the-hesili-original-series-one/) and loved it.
When I put it on the timegrapher back in March or April, it averaged out to about +2 sec/day. I put it on again briefly at the start of this week and was pretty happy to see that it was still just about at the same level. STP movements might have gotten a bad rap initially, but the one in this and the Stella Felix I have have both been performing like champions. Very happy with this movement.
I'm very much waiting for the Series 2 from Hesili. The rep I talked to said mid 2023...
Looks great, I've been wanting one of those for awhile.
Great watch ! Thanks for sharing. Didn't know this brand
Stopped by and saw their collection as well. Was impressed with it. Congrats & enjoy.
The watches are beautiful and like its NY based ..BUT im not crazy about the name and on the website explaining their "story" the leave out names ?..why ..i prefer a more open microbrand company ..just my 2 cents enjoy the watch
Poor writing skills? I read the story and I was stunned at how poorly written it was. It was like reading a freshman essay.
Have the OS1 in Timeless Blue. I found the straps too short for my 7.5” wrist so I paired it with others and love it.
