I had a chance to see this watch in person yesterday,and it was fantastic!....the case design and overall presentation was among the best I have seen....Hanhart has long been admired for their Pilot watches and this Primus Dive Chrono is a awesome addition to a line of watches that is truly amazing imho. In the past, Hanhart supplied the Navy with chronographs, including the single-button "Calibre 40", and stopwatches. Today naval officers, leisure sailors and divers wear wristwatches or use stopwatches from Hanhart both on and under the water. The striking fluted bezel with inlaid red marking of the Primus Diver is reminiscent of the design of the watch manufacturer's legendary chronographs and is realised as a concave, unidirectional rotating bezel featuring a scale for calculating the dive time. It can be adjusted to an anticlockwise direction and has a detent set in steps of a minute. Technical details Movement: HAN38 modified automatic chronograph movement (bicompax), based on the Valjoux 7750 calibre; 28,800 vibrations per hour, 4 Hz; 28 jewels; rotor with a skeletonised, incised Hanhart logo; power reserve of min. 42 hours Functions: Small seconds at 9 o'clock, 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock, date display at 6 o'clock Case: Stainless steel; anodised aluminium red button; fluted, concave, unidirectional rotating bezel with inlaid red marking; convex, internally anti-reflective sapphire glass; screwed-down, internally anti-reflective sapphire glass case back; screw-in crown; flexible lugs (angle of 45°-50°); diameter 44 mm, height 15 mm; water-resistance to 100 m/10 bar Dial: Black; with Super-LumiNova®-coated, luminous Arabic numerals, index marks, hands and orange auxiliary dials for small seconds and 30-minute counter Strap: Vulcanised rubber with moulded Hanhart logo, non-allergenic; folding clasp with inlaid red marking (anodised aluminium) made from stainless steel ![]() ![]()
