Object description

Identity and Case Construction

The timepiece is catalogued as a Haldimann Central Balance bearing reference number H11/12 and dated circa 2020. The circular case measures 39mm in diameter and is executed in 18K pink gold, paired with a matching 18K pink gold Haldimann pin buckle. Direct visual observation reveals a stepped rounded bezel with straight lugs and an onion-style winding crown at 3 o'clock.

The source catalogue notes that the case, dial, movement, and buckle are signed. The source also states that the model is typically encased in stainless steel or platinum, framing this pink gold example as rare.

  • “Stepped rounded bezel with straight lugs and an onion-style winding crown at 3 o'clock.”

Dial and Hands

The dial displays a rhodium-finished silvery surface with a delicate frosted finish, calibrated with hand-engraved black Roman numerals and a peripheral dot minute track. Time is indicated by blued hollow spade hands for the hours and minutes.

Visual observation confirms an offset subsidiary seconds register positioned at roughly 5 o'clock. The dial is visibly signed 'HALDIMANN' below 12 o'clock and 'SWISS HANDMADE' along the lower edge around 6 o'clock.

Evidence for this section
  • “Its rhodium dial carries a delicate frosted finish, against which hand-engraved Roman numerals and hollow spade hands evoke the quiet elegance of another century.”
  • “Frosted silvery dial with hand-engraved black Roman numerals and dot minute track.”

Reported Movement and Associated Documentation

According to the source listing, the watch is powered by a manual-wind calibre ZEN-H11 with 19 jewels and movement number 20-88-03. Because movement and caseback images are not included in the record, these mechanical details remain unverified by direct observation.

The source text reports that the watch is accompanied by an official Haldimann certificate stamped Takashimaya Watch Maison Tokyo and dated 11 November 2020, an additional crocodile strap, a fitted presentation box, and outer packaging.

Evidence for this section
  • “Calibre Manual, cal. ZEN-H11, 19 jewels”
  • “Movement No 20-88-03”
  • “Accompanied by Haldimann certificate stamped Takashimaya Watch Maison Tokyo, dated 11 November 2020, additional crocodile strap, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.”

Open research questions

  • Does the physical caseback bear reference H11, H12, or both, and what individual case number is stamped on it?
  • Can the movement number 20-88-03 and calibre ZEN-H11 designation be visually confirmed on the movement bridges?
  • Does the Takashimaya Watch Maison Tokyo certificate explicitly record movement number 20-88-03 and reference H11/12?
