#repost âą @gronefeld_watches GroÌnefeld 1941 Principia Mandala participation, Only Watch 2024. The value of the three generations of GroÌnefeld watchmakers extended beyond the tangible craftsmanship of their timepieces. Their legacy lay in their relentless pursuit of perfection, their unwavering commitment to quality, and their dedication to preserving the art of traditional watchmaking. The GroÌnefeld name had become a symbol of excellence and a testament to the enduring value of family heritage in the world of horology. For the first time Bart and Tim decided to add a hinged hunter case back to one of their timepieces. This GroÌnefeld 1941 Principia Mandala is the first and only GroÌnefeld timepiece that has such a case back. The inside of the case back has an engraving with the images of Bart, Tim and their father Sjef. The dial of the watch showcases a vibrant and intricate mandala design, inspired by the colorful logo of the 10th anniversary of Only Watch. A mandala is a symbol of the universe in its ideal form, it holds the power to transform a universe of suffering into one of joy. On the dial, youâll find highly polished hour markers. To make this unique dial we started off with 60 base dials to create one perfect dial. It took 16 clicheÌs to print the dial, one clicheÌ for each color. Overall, this wristwatch with a colorful mandala dial exudes a sense of artistic beauty, making it a captivating accessory that adds a touch of elegance and vibrancy to your wrist. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks #onlywatch2024 #onlywatch

Johannes Grönefeld, known locally as âSjefâ, was born on 5th November 1941, again in Oldenzaal. Inspired by his father, there was an inevitability in Sjefâs career choice when he entered the sphere of jewellery and watchmaking. After Johan passed away in 1974, the mantle of attending to the clock within the local basilica passed to Sjef. The Grönefeld family continue to own and operate the workshop and boutique on Steenstraat established by Johan. It was within the confines of their grandfatherâs workshop that Bart and Tim would play as children to the metronomic sounds of ticking clocks and watches. Hearing the seductive sounds of pallet levers at play proved too much for the âHorological brothersâ and they vowed to continue the work of their forebears. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

Gerhard Louis Grönefeld was born on the 14th July 1896 in Oldenzaal. Johan commenced his career as a watchmaker in 1912. Taught by his uncle, Johan established his workshop and boutique in the shadows of Saint Plechelmus, a basilica and tower dating from 1240. He also looked after the churchâs clock mechanism. Johan was both an exceptional watchmaker and consummate businessman. His prowess with watchmaking tools, combined with creativity and inventiveness, led to his reputation growing in Oldenzaal and beyond. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks #watchesandwonders2024

With the One Hertz, Bart and Tim Grönefeld have resurrected a long-neglected horological complication and re-positioned it on the pedestal of high precision. Until the arrival of the One Hertz, dead seconds â secondes mortes in French â in wristwatches was usually derived from constant force devices. The Grönefeld One Hertz is unique among wristwatches in that to maximize precision, its dead seconds are powered by a secondary gear train, independent of the gear train for the hour and minute indications. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
Tim Lambertus Joseph Grönefeld, simply âTimâ to his friends, was born on the 12th March 1972. His career path took a similar route to his older brotherâs. After leaving the same technical school as Bart in Oldenzaal, he attended Vakschool in Schoonhoven, a further education establishment for training watch technicians.Tim, chose to follow his older brother and also travelled to Switzerland. It did not take long for Tim to show his watchmaking prowess. He soon assumed responsibility for the training of other watchmakers. Moreover, he was also placed in charge of the assembly of tourbillons and regulator escapements, playing a key role in the quality control of complicated movements. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
The âPhilosophiĂŠ Naturalis Principia Mathematicaâ often referred to as simply the Principia, is a body of work by Sir Isaac Newton, delivered in three books. Written in Latin, the Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation. This Newtonâs scientific study is the foundation of classical mechanicsand it led the Horological Brothers to select the âPrincipiaâ name for their first watch with automatic winding mechanism. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
Bartholomeus Albertus Johannes Grönefeld, âBartâ, was born in 1969. After concluding his studies at technical school in Oldenzaal, Bart travelled to Rotterdam and attended a school for watch technicians. Later, he travelled to Switzerland and trained at the world-renowned watchmaking school Wostep, NeuchĂątel. After leaving Wostep, the bright lights of London beckoned and Bart worked for Asprey, the prestigious jewellers. One year later, he returned to Wostep, keen to advance his understanding of complicated watches. Each day he would work with a talented group of artisans on minute repeaters, chronographs and grande-sonneries. Later, his younger brother, Tim, joined him in Switzerland at Renaud et Papi. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

When designing this watch, Bart & Tim wanted to produce a model that indulged purists with a remarkable choice of colours and styles. The 1969 DeltaWorks is available with 3 different dial designs/colours, 5 different strap options and, finally, a choice of stainless steel inserts or colour-coordinated FKM rubber-clad inserts. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

The âPremiere Editionâ will be encased in the rare metal tantalum and limited to just 25 pieces. Thereafter, Grönefeld will release 188 pieces in stainless steel. This 1941 Grönograaf is the distillation of three generations of watchmaking know-how, of the professional journeys of both Horological Brothers and the manifestation of their extraordinary passion for horology. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
The Principia is housed in the companyâs 1941 case. Named after the year their father Sjef was born, the 1941 case exudes grace from every angle. It is available in red gold, white gold or stainless steel. A sapphire case back has been fitted to confer a spectacular view on the extensively hand finished movement with their well known stainless steel bridges and a 22K solid gold oscillating weight. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
In our way, we are setting forth a family tradition that began back in 1912. We studied with the best watchmakers in Europe and returned home to bundle our strengths. It is a great privilege to share our passion in life. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

The 1941 Grönograaf features a classical configuration with its column-wheel and lateral coupling, a combination synonymous with high-end watchmaking. Its movement, the calibre G-04, is a symphony of 408 parts which not only encompasses quality materials but also upholds Grönefeldâs âno-compromiseâ approach to finishing. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

With the One Hertz, Bart and Tim Grönefeld have resurrected a long-neglected horological complication and re-positioned it on the pedestal of high precision. Until the arrival of the One Hertz, dead seconds â secondes mortes in French â in wristwatches was usually derived from constant force devices. The Grönefeld One Hertz is unique among wristwatches in that to maximize precision, its dead seconds are powered by a secondary gear train, independent of the gear train for the hour and minute indications. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

Johannes Grönefeld, known locally as âSjefâ, was born on 5th November 1941, again in Oldenzaal. Inspired by his father, there was an inevitability in Sjefâs career choice when he entered the sphere of jewellery and watchmaking. After Johan passed away in 1974, the mantle of attending to the clock within the local basilica passed to Sjef. The Grönefeld family continue to own and operate the workshop and boutique on Steenstraat established by Johan. It was within the confines of their grandfatherâs workshop that Bart and Tim would play as children to the metronomic sounds of ticking clocks and watches. Hearing the seductive sounds of pallet levers at play proved too much for the âHorological brothersâ and they vowed to continue the work of their forebears. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

The âPhilosophiĂŠ Naturalis Principia Mathematicaâ often referred to as simply the Principia, is a body of work by Sir Isaac Newton, delivered in three books. Written in Latin, the Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation. This Newtonâs scientific study is the foundation of classical mechanicsand it led the Horological Brothers to select the âPrincipiaâ name for their first watch with automatic winding mechanism. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
A Puristâs Movement. Unlike mass-produced cam-actuated chronographs, the 1941 Grönograaf features a classical configuration, namely a column-wheel and lateral coupling, a combination synonymous with high-end watchmaking. The calibre G-04 is a symphony of 408 parts and a wonderful exemplar of no-compromise watchmaking. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks

The 1941 Grönograaf is the latest creation to be conceived in Oldenzaal. It is a classical chronograph, but consistent with the Grönefeld ethos, it incorporates several ingenious details. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
The name âParallaxâ is derived from the precision of the readability of the central seconds hand. Parallax is defined as the apparent change in position of an object when the observer changes his own position. The Grönefeld Parallax Tourbillon was awarded the prestigious Grand Prix dâHorlogerie de GenĂšve for the best watch in the tourbillon categorie. www.gronefeld.com #gronefeld #watchfam #watches #independent #hautehorlogerie #netherlands #dutch #lovewatches #wristcandy #wristwatch #principia #grönefeld #watchmaking #thehorologicalbrothers #oldenzaal #1941remontoire #watch #automaticmovement #manualwind #handfinished #craftsmanship #grönograaf #gronograaf #chronograph #1941gronograaf #deltaworks #1969deltaworks
