A Visual Chronicle of Grönefeld 1941 Principia 2018-2022

2022 was a banner year for the Horological Brothers Bart & Tim Grönefeld. The brand launched their first ever chronograph and first ever sports models. To top it off, the chronograph, 1941 Grönograaf, won the 2022 GPHG competition in the Chronograph category. It was the third prestigious award after previous wins in the Tourbillon category and the Men’s Watch category in 2014 and 2016, respectively.

Like many top independent watchmakers, when starting out, the Grönefeld brothers needed to deliver on the most complicated watches. This was to showcase their watchmaking prowess and won recognitions. Then it was time to make a simple, 3-hand watch. The price point would be lower, so the watch can reach a wider group of watch collectors and enthusiasts. Furthermore, the basic models are simply more suitable for daily wear.

The time was 2018 and the Grönefeld brothers released their simple watch, the Principia.

This model is a bit dull for me. I prefer the 1-hertz.
