About the product.
Not the HMT most people picture. The HMT Chuz.it skips the plain dress dial entirely and puts a printed photograph on the face — an orange sunset sky over a yellow board and deep blue-green water, with a single gold-rimmed marker at twelve and slim white batons sweeping across it. Unworn, still sealed in its clear HMT capsule on the blue HMT base.

In short
HMT started making watches in Bangalore in 1961 alongside Citizen Watch Co. of Japan, and the government closed the last plant in 2016. The Chuz.it is the odd one out in that catalogue — a small, cheerful, printed-dial watch rather than a sober steel dress piece — and finding one still capsuled is the whole point of this listing.
