Known for a line of exclusive gentleman’s
accessories, it was only a matter of time before Alfred Dunhill would
launch a line of wristwatches. After the successful introduction of the
“dashboard” clock, a unique timepiece designed to help motorists run
on time, Dunhill, the quintessential English brand launch a collection of
wristwatches in 1929. By 1930, the Alfred Dunhill collection of gentlemen’s watches was growing strong. Among the more noteworthy lines were a Dunhill chronograph, the original roulette watch, a Dunhill lighter with a watch in its side and the infamous belt watch with the watch inset in the belt’s buckle. It wasn’t until the 1950s that Dunhill introduced the Executive Alarm. And beating the world’s watchmakers by almost 20 years, introduced the Millennium watch in 1982. All Alfred Dunhill watches reflect a combination of British design and Swiss craftsmanship. The collections are updated frequently to suit changing tastes and accommodate advancing technology. And each elegant and oh-so British timepiece fulfills the tenets of all Alfred Dunhill gentlemen’s accessories — it is useful, reliable, beautiful, lasting and the best of its kind. Alfred Dunhill watches are the consummate expression of impeccable style. |
