“Absolutely mesmerisingly beautiful watch. Very sleek, the way the lume has been applied works so well - and retains visibility all night. That movement is great - the noisiest I've ever encountered, which works just so well with the overall vibe of the watch. I think that it's a steal that a watch of this quality can be put together at the price-point.”

“I saw the watch brand mentioned by Teddy Baldassarre as an up-and-coming German microbrand so had to check out their watches. Decided on the Hamburg automatic with the dark blue dial and the bronze finish on the case as it was the one that seemed to match my style.
The dial is a little more complex than a simple bauhaus-style watch which I actually like as there is more to capture the eye and look at when glancing at the time. The watch has the characteristic bauhaus big-dial appearance to it which actually looks very good on the wrist and contrasts very well when wearing lighter-colored shirts in a very complementary way.
It's interesting when microbrands tell the story behind the watch, and I think that the story of the color themes matching the canals and brick warehouses of the old Hamburg where the watches are currently made, and the slightly nautical-theme added to the bauhaus style was interesting and definitely gives the watch it's unique character.
I chose the provided leather band but noticed after ordering that there was an option to purchase a thin stainless steel bracelet finished with bronze that I think would have looked really nice with this watch. In the several days I've had it, it has kept very accurate time and to me seems to be a watch that should really cost more than the $499 that I paid for it.
The only area for improvement I would recommend for future models is to have a little less reflectivity from the surface sapphire crystal. The reflectivity doesn't interfere with being able to read the time from the watch at all as the deep orange / copper-like hands contrast well with the deep blue dial. Overall I think that this watch is a great value and will definitely consider purchasing an additional watch (and maybe even get the bronze finished bracelet for the current watch) and to keep checking back with them to see what new concepts on redefining the bauhaus style they come up with.”
Moin Jeffrey!

The unique design elements, such as the Bauhaus influence mixed with a nautical touch, definitely add to the character of the watch, and we're happy you appreciate the story behind it. It's also great to hear that you're happy with the accuracy and value of the watch! We appreciate your feedback regarding the sapphire crystal's reflectivity, and we'll definitely keep that in mind for future models. We're thrilled to know you're considering adding more watches to your collection – and the bronze-finished bracelet would look fantastic with the current model!

“Watch is beautiful! The only complaint I have is the noise from moving around. I have other automatic watches with no issues in noise, but this one does fairly make a decent amount of noise when moving. Other than that high quality and beautiful watch”
Moin Anonymous,
thank you for your feedback :).
I understand your concerns - I had to get used to the audible sound as well. Yet, It is not uncommon for your watch to make sounds, and in some mechanical movements, these sounds are actually necessary. The reason for this is the presence of clearance spaces between the individual components. These small spaces are necessary for the parts to move freely and regularly. Due to these clearance spaces, the rotor can be distinctly heard during certain movements.
I hope we were able to help you with this and that you enjoy your automatic watch :)
Best wishes from Hamburg!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad you're enjoying your watch and had a positive experience with us. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

“Sternglas has created a beautiful and classy watch with the Hamburg Automatik (Dark Blue/Bronze). I love just looking at this watch, regardless if I need to read the time or not. The dial is a deep, rich blue, but not overpowering. I am looking forward to swapping bands on this model to change up it's personality from time to time. Thanks Sternglas!”
