HMT museum is a must visit watch museum in Bangalore.

Watches for people of all sectors of societies were produced by HMT.We took a watch as a mark if remembrance.Parking area is good and it is free if we shop a watch there.

Definitely nostalgic. Important to note they have souvenir shops that provides affordable options , especially automatic ones. Dont bother if you dont love watches.

Quaint piece of history. Immaculately maintained and great place to spend couple hours with kids. Showcases history of HMT through the years. Has a nice lil playing area for kids and tractor rides. Has an attached store to buy a piece of watch history!!

A must visit for every museum lover and watch enthusiast!! A well preserved museum from modern India showcasing a vivid picture of the Indian industrial transformation. However the museum stays closed on Tuesdays and other public holidays.

Another jewel in Bangalore City. This museum walks us through their heritage and history and if you are interested in HMT merchandise then you can give it a try. Please do visit with family and friends and a must visit for children.

Really nice to see legendary evolution of HMT.I love mechanical watches ,you can buy them here which costed 13k .The person who handles shop hardly bother to care even if you are buying watches.

There are few places which would take you back to good old memories. HMT heritage just does that. Very neatly maintained and preserved. Its a must go for anyone above 2 years. Yes, there is a cool park for kids and people above 34 years will align with the historical heritage this place is. I would recommend you to take your father here and enjoy 2 to 3 hrs of the day.

* Entry fee : 30₹* We can see the history of HMT(watches, tractor..)* Not crowded so peaceful atmosphere* We can spend a afternoon well

Such a gem of a place hidden in plain sight. I have stayed in the vicinity for the past 6 years and never knew a place like this existed. Very unique museum showcasing the history of the HMT industry. A very elaborate display of their watch making components and all the models they have ever produced. Totally isolated with a lovely childrens park. You can easily spend an afternoon here. There is also a HMT watches outlet on the campus.

An indian company started ter operation again,, one of the famous model I was searching for my father from past 10yrs, thank you HMT

This center details the journey of our beloved HMT. Not just ಕೈ ಘಡಿಯಾರಗಳು (wrist watchesbut also machine tools, Tracters etc. Working models, display of the tiniest part in our watch is very interesting. Educative place and very inexpensive.

If Indian watchmaking was a religion then this would be sacred grounds. Very beautiful museum, there is shop in the premises that sells hmt watches, both mechanical and quartz. If you are interested in mechanical watches and the horological history of watch manufacturing in India, then this is the place.

Good museum to visit if you are a watch lover and if any of your family member owned HMT watches then please take them along. You can take back home a watch as a souvenir. There is a tractor ride also. Worth visiting with your family.

Nicely maintained museum. Watches, Watch mechanisms, machines used in manufacturing watches, models of tools, cut sections of tractors are all on display. A great place to learn a lot.They sell HMT watches as well.

A small museum that would probably take 45 mins to cover. Entry charge is 30 for adults and 30 for a tractor rideThey also have an outlet selling hmt watches

A must visit heritage site for all watch lovers..

We get to see watches of all kinds that HMT manufactured all over the years, such as Braille watch, special edition watches, etc. Here we also get to see machines and tools such as lathe, tractors. Theres also a park with play area. Its a small museum with generally no crowd. It took me 30 mins to go through all sections in the museum

HMT museum is a good place to visit. We will learn growth of HMT company and get to know many things about it. The machines, different types watch mechanisms, video show every thing we enjoyed. I recommend to visit the place with children.

Very neatly maintained place and the entry ticket is 30/- for adults. A walk around this place is nostalgic as we get to know how HMT evolved from its humble beginnings. There is an audio visual treat, however I did not get to see as I visited close to 5.30pm. The section on tractor and watch making is undoubtedly mind blowing. I would recommend visiting this place in the morning as the time spent is worth knowing what HMT accomplished and where is it heading towards.

An excellent history of our countrys oldest machinery and watches history and current survival is shown in an extremely very organized and understandable ways to the people. The HMT Heritage center explains its history how its evolved since the begining till now. Most of the people arent aware about this place. Its good to know our own country products like hmt machinery, printers, watches, trackers, etc. Its one of the knowledgeable place to know stuff, which most of us arent aware of.The making of the watches start from the scratch the iron raw material to dial making, cutting, fixing, assembling the parts of the dails, varities of straps in weather, gold and diamond are explained with the machines and pictorial presentation.Many more to go here!!Within the premises well maintained park.

A very beautiful place . Very well maintained and informative was never aware HMT had a diverse portfolio from dairy production to printing press to ball bearings . Some of the antique watches on display will take you back in time. Specially found the janatha series watched which I had seen while growing up. The tractor manufacturing unit with a break down of different spares was good could explain the kids why gear box is required

One of the best museum Ive visited, hands down. If you are a gadget freak then you must definitely take a look of this place. It depicts on how HMT manufacturing industries worked and their products are showcased here. The entire history of HMT firm can be learnt here. The product they worked and the back-end is seen here. Variety of products and their uniqueness can be observed in depth. Their watches are available for purchase in the shop besides museum. Young as well as elderly people can spend their time here. There is a very less entry fees of ₹30 per person. Overall its a neat and clean museum. If 45min to 1 hour spared, then one can see the museum clearly along with the audio visual information. Visit is a must to this place, once at least.

HMT is the pride of India. And to know the history of HMT machine and its contribution to Indian development one should visit the museum. Very nicely done Museum. Green and peaceful place. Good to bring young kids and also for history students. With Knowing the history you could also get a HMT Tractor ride, which is wonderful.
