| 1939 Replika. This is very true to the original but has modern improvements. Manual winding. Matt stainless steel case. Convex sapphire crystal. Rotating bezel. Fully luminous. Water resistant to 100m. Safety rivets in the strap, like the original. Uncluttered dial yet able to measure longer time intervals using the bezel as necessary. Limited edition of 2500 pieces. D= 40mm. H= 13.7mm. Supplied in a leather presentation case. This watch is stunningly attractive and deserves its popularity. Everything is "just right". Perhaps an opportunity not to be missed. Available with brown or black strap but we think brown is more in keeping with the watch. Base movement: Valjoux 7760. Few watches remain from the limited edition. If the limited edition element doesn't matter the Primus manual version (described above) is just as nice and with the new pricing will be a better buy.
with leather strap £1708.
Pioneer Caliber 2. This is a new model. From the front it looks like the 1939 but is automatic (7750) and has a sapphire back hence H= 15mm.

| Handwinding Admiral Chronograph. This is a close derivative of the 1939 but has a bright polished stainless steel case and a white dial. It is fully luminous including the chronograph seconds counter. Otherwise the specification is as the 1939. This watch is a reproduction of another model which Hanhart used to make but is not a limited edition. It is of brighter and perhaps more "dressy" appearance than the 1939. Base movement: Valjoux 7760.
with leather strap (brown or black) £1544
with stainless steel bracelet £1702
(The Admiral is also available as an automatic with a sapphire see through back. It is thicker (15.4mm.) than the hand winding model and more distant from the original. £1670 with a strap, £1829 with a bracelet. Base movement: Valjoux 7750. The automatic Admiral has the options of black or white dial and matt or polished case.).

COMMENT
The interest in Hanhard stems from the derivation of its chronographs from the WWII period. The 1939 Replika has been by far the most successful model for us in recent years. Subject to availability, this is the one to go for. Failing this the hand winding Primus is a good alternative. The other models are fine watches but don't have the same charisma. |
