A true icon of Indian watchmaking, the HMT Kohinoor remains one of the most sought-after mechanical watches ever produced by HMT. This New Old Stock (NOS) example features a beautiful champagne sunburst dial that shifts elegantly under different lighting conditions, paired with minimalist silver baton markers and the signature cushion-shaped stainless steel case. Preserved in unused condition for decades, this Kohinoor represents an increasingly rare opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to own a factory-fresh example of one of India’s most celebrated hand-wound timepieces.
