The captivating allure of the Jensen Interceptor has stood the test of time. Regarded as one of the most distinctive and coolest British Gran Turismo (GT) cars ever produced, the Jensen Interceptor is well-known for its distinctive design by Carrozzeria Touring and powerful V8 engine from Chrysler. Throughout its decade-long production, the Interceptor has accumulated a massive following of enthusiasts and collectors, who keep these classic vehicles alive and well on today’s roads. However, the Interceptor’s production ended when the manufacturer, Jensen Motors, unfortunately, ceased operations.
Every watch enthusiast has at some point imagined the ideal timepiece. For some, it might already exist, affordably priced and easily available. For others, including Thomas Hill, it might not be, leading to the creation of his own brand. A showcase of British watchmaking innovation, Abinger was born from Hill’s quest for this ideal. Building on the success of its debut watch, Abinger now introduces the Phantom Luna, characterised by its luminescent dial housed in a unique case design.
Abinger’s creation story is deeply rooted in the camaraderie found in gatherings of fellow watch enthusiasts. The brand’s existence is due largely to the encouragement Hill received from his peers at RedBar in Bristol, UK. These enthusiast-driven origins provide Abinger with a charming backstory, and the genuine nature of Hill himself serves to increase the appeal of his brand.
