Condition: New old stock from the 1980s. Never worn. No box or papers.Michel Herbelin is a respected French watchmaker known for its elegant designs, high‑quality components, and traditional craftsmanship. Founded in 1947 in Charquemont, France, the brand blends Swiss precision with French styling — a combination that has earned Herbelin a loyal following across Europe for more than 75 years.
This watch is part of a collection of New Old Stock (NOS) pieces from the late 1980s, preserved in excellent condition and never worn. These vintage‑era Herbelin watches are increasingly difficult to find, especially in unused condition, making them appealing to collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate classic European design.
Each watch features a Swiss‑made ETA movement, known for reliability, accuracy, and long‑term serviceability. Herbelin sourced Swiss movements for decades, pairing them with French‑designed cases and dials to create refined, understated timepieces suitable for everyday wear or dress occasions.
Because these watches were produced in France during the 1980s, they reflect the slimmer, more elegant proportions of the era — ideal for collectors who prefer vintage sizing and timeless styling. The original straps (often genuine leather or lizard) complement the watch’s classic aesthetic.
This is an authentic vintage Michel Herbelin timepiece, carefully stored for decades and now offered in new, unworn condition. A rare opportunity to own a piece of French watchmaking history.
