Alfred Dunhill Watches

The founder of Alfred Dunhill, the brand manufacturing luxury leather goods and watches for men, was Alfred Dunhill, a man passionate about automobiles. Dunhill inherited his father’s saddlers business in London. But his impetus for automobiles drove Dunhill to create a fancy accessory line - car horns, goggles, picnic sets, leather overcoats and ultimately Alfred Dunhill watches. The brand has retained its identity as one of the finest suppliers of deluxe English accessories for over 100 years.

Alfred Dunhill watches are examples of masculinity and machismo. The leather used by the brand is completely hand-made from English hides. The timepieces are very innovative in design and renowned for repeatedly addressing the issues put forward by wearers of the Dunhill watches. One can allude to Dunhill’s ‘Car Watch’ - this timepiece has a novel shaped sapphire crystal glass and its numbers are individually sized, making the wearer capable of reading time while driving a bike or a car!

Alfred Dunhill’s zest for automobiles is again discerned in the ‘Wheel watch’. This timepiece has a striking resemblance with the metal spinners which were used to fix wire wheels for sport cars of passé. This innovation of Alfred Dunhill watches owes its inspiration to the automobile sphere. This Wheel Watch is available in two styles with Dunhill’s exclusively hand made leather straps and with a bulldog engraved at the back of the case.

Alfred Dunhill has also created some magnificent and innovative timepieces like the ‘key with watch’. This precious piece featured in the Alfred Dunhill watches catalogue in the 1930s.
