A refined vintage HMT quartz dress watch featuring a silver sunburst dial that catches the light with a subtle radiant finish. The dial is complemented by polished silver-toned linear stick indices, minimalist black minute markings, elegant silver-toned hands, and traditional HMT Quartz branding.
The polished round silver-toned case gives the watch a timeless and versatile profile, making it equally suited to everyday wear or more formal occasions.
Powered by a quartz movement, this HMT offers the convenience of battery-powered timekeeping while retaining the distinctive character and design language of a vintage Indian wristwatch.
The stainless steel case back retains its original inspection sticker and is clearly stamped with the HMT logo, reference 2080-5015, “STAINLESS STEEL BACK,” and “INDIA.”
This example is offered in New Old Stock (NOS) condition, featuring an unworn vintage silver-toned case with its original factory finish and inspection sticker. It is paired with a matching stainless steel link bracelet featuring an HMT-signed deployant clasp, completing its classic vintage presentation.
