Description
This HERBELIN Newport watch looks stunning on any man’s wrist.
Inspired by the portholes of transatlantic yachts of days gone past, this uniquely styled timepiece is distinguished by its porthole-style brushed steel bezel and central lugs.
Housed within a circular 40.5mm case is a gradient blue dial, shimmering like the deep sea ocean. Its applied index hour markers illuminate the scene like tiny hulls, accentuating its nautical heritage.
Keeping you on track is a grey minute scale and date window at 3 o’clock. Its good looks are protected with scratch-resistant sapphire crystal whilst a Swiss Ronda movement ensures timekeeping you can rely on.
Other cool touches include a ship’s helm on the fluted crown and case back and note the five bezel screws styled like yacht winches.
With a water resistance to 100 metres, it’s happy to be worn in either a marine or land environment.
Completing this chic look is a comfortable, tanned leather strap with embossed stitching for a stylish and eye-catching timepiece, ideal for all adventures.

Herbelin Watches
Since 1947, Michel Herbelin have been making unique watches. The original founder, Michel Herbelin wanted to create fine timepieces that lasted and to restore French watch making to its former glory. To this day, each watch is designed, assembled, regulated and checked in their Franche-Comté workshops.
Jean-Claude Herbelin, Michel’s eldest son was inspired by the family passion for sea and boats and this was the inspiration for the iconic Newport collection, which was launched in 1988. Its testament to the enduring popularity of its distinctive styling that the Newport is still in demand today.
