Type
GMT/Travel Watch (Fashion/Lifestyle Subcategory)
Brand
Haurex Italy. A fashion-tier lifestyle brand founded in 1989, specializing in Italian design and outsourced movements.
Movement
Japanese Quartz (dual-movement configuration). It likely utilizes two separate Miyota or Seiko-Epson quartz calibers to drive the 'Local Time' and 'World Time' dials independently.
Dimensions
Case diameter 45-48mm, thickness 13mm, lug-to-lug 54mm, lug width 24mm. It is designed to wear very large/oversized, typical of Italian lifestyle brands like Diesel or Police.
Description
An assertive and bold dresser-tool hybrid, this Haurex Italy timepiece is designed for the traveler who appreciates Italian flair and a large wrist presence. The dial is a masterclass in texture, featuring concentric patterns that play with the light, while the dual-time functionality allows for easy tracking of multiple zones. It serves more as a statement accessory than a professional horological instrument.
Key Features
Distinctive asymmetrical dual-time layout, 'World Time' labeling on sub-dial, oversized Arabic '11' and '7' numerals, and the contrast between Roman and Arabic indices.
Dial Description
Champagne/Silver textured dial with guilloché patterns. Features applied rose-gold Arabic numerals (outer track) and Roman numerals (inner track). Main dial for 'Local Time' includes a date aperture at 4:30. Off-center sub-dial at 10 o'clock for 'World Time'. Leaf-shaped hands.
Case Material
Rose Gold PVD coated 316L Stainless Steel with a polished finish.
Crystal Type
Mineral glass crystal (flat). It lacks AR coating and shows high reflectivity in the image.
Bezel Details
Fixed, smooth, polished bezel integrated into the case design. Rose gold PVD finish.
Crown & Pushers
Single oversized crown at 3 o'clock for the main time/date; there is likely a secondary recessed pusher or crown at the 10 o'clock position (hidden on the side) to adjust the World Time sub-dial.
Bracelet or Strap
Black textured genuine leather strap with matching rose gold PVD tang buckle.
Caseback Details
Solid stainless steel screw-down or snap-on caseback with 'Haurex Italy' branding and water resistance ratings engraved.
Movement Type
Japanese Quartz (dual-movement configuration). It likely utilizes two separate Miyota or Seiko-Epson quartz calibers to drive the 'Local Time' and 'World Time' dials independently.
Water Resistance
Rated at 3 ATM / 30 meters. This is splash-proof only; not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving.
Origin & Provenance
Designed in Italy, manufactured in China/Far East, using Japanese movement components.
Age Estimate
Circa 2012-2016. The design language aligns with the peak of the oversized fashion watch trend.
Cultural Significance
Represents the 'Oversized Watch Era' of the early 21st century where Italian design houses dominated the mid-tier consumer market through bold aesthetics over mechanical complexity.
Condition Notes
Very Good. The rose gold PVD appears intact without significant thinning (a common issue). The dial and hands are clean. Crystal shows minor surface reflections but no deep scratches in this view.
Value Estimate
Secondary market value is approximately $50 - $120 USD. Original MSRP was likely in the $300 - $450 range.
Care & Maintenance
Battery replacement approximately every 2-3 years. Keep away from water as PVD coatings and leather straps do not react well to moisture or salt. Wipe with a microfiber cloth to maintain the gold luster.
Similar Watches
