The Zeppelin LZ 129 Hindenburg is the most varied Zeppelin collection: men's and women's pieces with quartz, automatic and solar movements, mostly in an elegant style. As an official Zeppelin dealer, we deliver it to your door with the manufacturer warranty, and battery changes and water-resistance checks are handled by our own watch service.
Why is it named after the Hindenburg?
The LZ 129 Hindenburg was one of the largest airships of all time and a symbol of the Zeppelin era. The watches named after it do not recall the tragedy but the golden age of airship travel: classic dials, fine hands, restrained cases.
Quartz, automatic or solar Hindenburg?
- Quartz: battery-powered, accurate, the simplest choice.
- Solar: charged by light, so it rarely needs a battery change. A convenient solution if you spend a lot of time in the light.
- Automatic: wound by the motion of your arm, for lovers of mechanical watches.
How water resistant is the Hindenburg?
Some models are 5 ATM, others 3 ATM, so always check the product page. Treat the latter as splash resistant only: be careful when washing your hands, and always take them off before showering.
The series includes women's models too, so a couple can even choose their watches from the same collection. You can find more pieces on the Zeppelin watches page. If you cannot decide between the three movements, write to us and we will tell you which one suits your daily routine.
What is worth knowing about LZ 129 Hindenburg watches
Is there a women's Zeppelin Hindenburg watch?
Yes, the series has women's models too. The rest are men's or unisex designs.
What is a solar Zeppelin watch?
A solar Zeppelin charges its battery from light, so you do not need to change the battery regularly. The Hindenburg series includes such a version.
Can I swim with the Zeppelin Hindenburg?
No. The Hindenburg models are 3 or 5 ATM, which is not enough for swimming. The 5 ATM ones handle rain and hand washing.
Which movement should I choose?
If you wear it less often, quartz or solar is more convenient because it will not stop. If you wear it daily and like mechanics, automatic is the watch for you.
