LIP Watch - Himalaya 40 mm - Skeleton Automatic - Brown Leather

A Victim of Its Own Success

An iconic model from LIP, the Himalaya collection was born out of a collaboration between Fred Lip (a mountain enthusiast) and Lionel Terray (a high-mountain guide). Produced beginning in 1954, this watch remained one of the Lip brand’s flagship models until 1973. That is why Maurice Herzog, a friend of Fred Lip, set out wearing this watch to climb Annapurna, the world’s most challenging peak to reach. The Himalaya collection pays homage to this extraordinary feat. The collection’s success is also due to its use as a prize at major cycling events, such as the Tour de France.

Description

Fall in love with this true watchmaking treasure. In this skeletonized version, this 40mm Himalaya watch is designed especially for men seeking a stylish and innovative timepiece. Its skeletonized dial reveals the watch’s movement, making it a timepiece that’s a joy to admire and contemplate. Thanks to its 40mm case, it offers better visibility of the time while retaining the essence of what has made this collection so renowned.

The dial of this watch is round. It features gold-colored chrome-plated triangular hour markers that indicate the time. Note the Arabic numeral hour markers at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, as well as the brand’s logo in place of the 12 o’clock marker. The hour and minute hands are Dauphine-style. For greater precision, a minute track runs around the dial, with black dots marking the minutes. Also noteworthy is the “Besançon France” certification mark at 6 o’clock, which authenticates this timepiece. For ease of use, a crown at 3 o’clock allows you to set the time easily. This watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal that protects it from scratches. Finally, you’ll notice the skeletonized movement in the center of the dial, which lends this model its depth. 

The strap on this watch is made of brown cowhide leather. This timeless strap features a silver-colored pin buckle that allows you to easily adjust the size of your watch. The lug-to-lug width is 20 mm. 

This watch is equipped with a highly reliable Japanese-made Miyota 8N24 automatic movement. It has a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and a power reserve of 40 hours. 

This model is water-resistant up to 5 ATM. This means you can wear your watch in the shower, although we do not recommend doing so to ensure its reliability. For swimmers or divers, we recommend choosing a model that is water-resistant to 10 ATM or more.
