Introducing – Hanhart Primus Black Falcon Limited Edition

When it comes to Hanhart, we all know that it will have something to do with Pilot’s watches. Whether modern, rugged and bold in their execution – like the Primus – or inspired by the classic Flieger chronograph concept – like the Pioneer collection, including some with a cool monopusher movement – the world of aviation and the military inspiration are always present. Today, Hanhart presents a new watch in the modern Primus range, yet focusing on another kind of pilots… Meet the Primus Black Falcon Limited Edition.

Value Proposition – Hanhart Pioneer One, a No-Frills Vintage Pilot Watch

Founded in 1882, Hanhart can look back on a long watchmaking tradition. The brand is known for crafting robust and functional watches, and, in particular by vintage fans for its pilot watches/chronographs from the 1930s to 1950s. The Pioneer collection was launched in 2011 with this long-lasting tradition in mind. The historical inspiration for this line comes more specifically from a model from the 50s, the 417 ES Flyback (Cal. 42). The Black Forest manufacturer now launches the Pioneer One, a stylish yet affordable time-only pilot watch with vintage charm.

Hanhart’s reputation in terms of Military/Pilot chronographs is not to be demonstrated anymore. The German “brand with the red button” (the brand’s signature feature since 1938) is indeed specialized in creating strong, powerful and slightly vintage-inspired chronographs (the Pioneer collection, reminiscent of 1940s pilots and naval officers watches). Yet, there’s another watch in the collection, one that, without losing the roots of the company, looks at future: the bold and aggressive Hanhart Primus. Today, we take a look at the latest version, the Black Ops Pilot, which also happens to be a limited edition (with pre-orders opened).
