Both Mathias and Paul discovered their HMTs via mentions on watch fora. Along with another German marketing professional, Franz Mattes, they are members of a keen watch lovers' club on Facebook called HMT Watch Collectors, started in 2013 by Bangalore-based HR professional Prashant Pandey, 33.

Mattes, who maintains several blogs on horology, connected with Pandey at an international watch forum. "I really like the HMT Pilot. The size, mechanical hand winding movement, curved dial and curved acrylic glass are typical features of watches of the '60s. Today, you have a lot of companies, especially from Switzerland, who build and sell mechanical watches as a luxury product. But they have nothing to do with these robust watches from the 1960s," Mattes says, adding that he regrets 'losing' his golden HMT Sona to his wife who wears it "a lot".
