The E23 Historical Steel embodies exactly what VDB (the abbreviation stands for the apt name Vintage Daily Beater) is all about: a striking, masculine design >, trimmed for the unmistakable vintage look. Round, in the figurative sense, but somehow with corners and edges. VDB has its roots built into its name. The 'E' stands for Erfurt, where the brand was founded.

 The movement of the Vintage VDB E23 Historical Steel

When it comes to the movement, VDB does not experiment and chooses no lesser movement than the famous ETA 2824-2. The Swiss automatic movement with the illustrious name has been the top dog in the premium segment for decades. Even if some manufactured movements have now outstripped their power reserve, you can get through the day easily with the 38 hours that the ETA offers. span>

The features of the E23 Historical Steel

The housing finish of the processed stainless steel makes an excellent impression, feels good and conveys a special value despite (or perhaps because of?) the used look.

As a diver's watch, the E23 Historical Steel is waterproof up to 500 meters, making the E23 Historical Steel also particularly suitable for semi-professional dives due to its unidirectionally rotating bezel. 

The VDB E23 Historical Steel measures an impressive 46 millimeters in diameter. The length between the lugs is 55 millimeters and the height is 18 millimeters.

There is a vintage leather strap to match the VDB E23 Historical Steel. If you have a more sporty occasion than everyday office life, you can choose to replace the leather strap with a rubber alternative, which is fortunately included in the scope of delivery and does not have to be purchased separately.

My conclusion:

"I didn't really need any final “proof” as to why the decision to include VDB in my shop was a good and correct one. The VDB E23 Historical Steel still delivered it to me. With its exceptional yet timeless design and premium materials, it is a watch that stands out and whose confident look and presence will be remembered. There is no question that the E23 is a well-made watch. "
