SIMPLY UNUSUAL PIONEER Preventor9 For the models in the Pioneer collection, Hanhart draws on historical models from its own company - including the new Preventor9. Its small second is positioned in an unusual place. DESIGN CREATED BY LACK OF MATERIAL LIMITLESS CREATIVITY When movements and their components became scarce in the late 1930s and 1940s due to material shortages, Hanhart had to find creative solutions in order to continue manufacturing timepieces. Because the components of the 30-minute counter for the brand's famous chronographs were missing, the watchmakers simply omitted it and left the small seconds at 9 o'clock as usual. The result is a three-hand watch with an unmistakable face. TYPICALLY HANHART SIMPLE BUT CHIC Surprisingly, the small seconds dial on this watch is located at 9 o'clock. The Pioneer Preventor9 is also unmistakably based on its legendary model and is therefore instantly recognizable as a Hanhart watch. The large, handy crown with deep bevel guarantees easy and safe handling. The bezel is elegant and simple with a smooth surface. The antique white or black dial is easy to read in any situation thanks to large Arabic numerals that glow in the dark, striking hands that are also coated with Super-LumiNova®, the continuous minute track and the clearly set off small seconds display. The Preventor9 underlines its exclusivity with the elegant contrast between satin-finished and polished case surfaces. GUARANTEED PROTECTION ROBUST & WATERPROOF Like its predecessors, it has a closed, screwed case back with three recesses for the case key to ensure maximum water resistance and robustness. The Preventor9 is water-resistant up to 10 bar, making it the perfect companion for indoors and outdoors. QUALITY LEATHER OR STAINLESS STEEL PERFECT HOLD ON THE WRIST A strap made of black cowhide ensures optimum wearing comfort from day one. A stainless steel pin buckle with the Hanhart logo provides a secure hold. Alternatively, a stainless steel bracelet and leather straps are available in other colors.
Value note: On paper, the spec mix is sensible: mechanical movement, sapphire crystal, and usable water resistance. The value case is strongest if the design language is what you want.
