The Novum
History Reinvented, One Second at a Time
Novum - A Timeless Evolution
A British handmade watch to wear every day.
Many watches today are 40mm or more in diameter, as reflected in our own collection.
However, many men, and quite a few ladies, prefer something a little smaller, and we at Harold Pinchbeck have always found a steady and loyal demand for 36mm diameter watches.
This latest Pinchbeck watch, the Novum, is a fresh perspective on a former favourite. We’ve taken the timeless appeal of our old George, and refined its details to reflect modern tastes, while staying true to what made it so popular. It’s a practical watch for daily use, and smart enough for special occasions.
This lovely timepiece has a beautifully finished 36mm diameter 316L stainless steel case, a sapphire crystal for scratch resistance and a clear (exhibition) caseback to reveal the fine Swiss movement, the ETA 2824-2, which is kept wound by the natural movement of your wrist. Its 3ATM water resistance is enhanced by a screwdown winding crown, and the leather strap is handcrafted in Devon by Tanner Bates.
Assembled to order in our English workshop, the Novum can be on your wrist within a few weeks. It will be worth the short wait!
