Founder Wolfgang Heinrich Shares the Vision Behind HEINRICH Watches
Wolfgang Heinrich, the founder of Stuttgart-based independent brand HEINRICH watches, has shared the story and vision behind his company. Founded in 2021, the brand focuses on redefining vintage watch designs especially from the 1970s. The company incorporates its local heritage into its brand identity by featuring an independent interpretation of the Baden-Württemberg coat of arms, including the iconic lions and crown.
The brand recently received industrial recognition with one of its latest models, the Helicoprion, winning the German Design Award 2025 in the Luxury Goods category. Heinrich emphasizes that all models follow a specific vision to combine unconventional design era aesthetics with modern manufacturing standards. Watches are assembled in Germany under the supervision of a master watchmaker with decades of industry experience.
Regarding customer care, HEINRICH watches offers a 24-month warranty on their timepieces to cover potential production defects. All servicing and repairs are conducted in-house by their master watchmaker to ensure quality control and consistency. The brand continues to operate out of Stuttgart, maintaining its status as an independent German watchmaker.
