The MHD SC is a limited edition of 150 pieces designed in the UK by Automotive Designer Matthew Humphries, who is best known for designing cars such as the Morgan Aeromax, Supersports and 3 wheeler.
For the SC (Super Car) Humphries took inspiration from Italian car designer Marcello Gandini, famous for designs such as the Lamborghini Countach, giving the watch a unique 1970’s feel. Gandini’s trademark rear wheel arch design has influenced the shape of MHD SC watch chassis case, exposing the knurled, DLC coated barrel case.
The attention to detail is incredibly impressive for a watch at this price point. The three-piece case features knurled, polished and brushed finishes, the sandwich dial has laser cut holes to show the vintage-style lume beneath. The cut-out hours from 7 to 11 have a linked cutaway giving the feeling of a vintage rev counter.
The watch is 42mm in diameter, 12mm thick, with at 45mm lug-to-lug. It is powered by a Miyota 9132 automatic movement with power reserve, date and 24hr subdial. The caseback has a sapphire crystal display and is engraved with limited edition serial numbers.
The MHD SC is available for pre-order at £495 or £545 after at mhdwatches.com.
