Hanhart 417 ES 42mm

All about the Hanhart 417 ES 42mm

Timeless elegance meets modern technology

With the 415 ES, Hanhart brings a legend from the 1960s into the present. The model combines the classic design of its historical predecessor with innovative materials and current technology. This not only keeps the watch true to the brand's tradition but also meets today's demands for precision, robustness, and comfort. The reissue is a tribute to a classic that continues to live on in a new, modern form.

A glance into the past

The first 415 ES was introduced in the mid-1960s and offered in various versions. Two special features characterized its appearance at that time: the bidirectionally rotating bezel with a 60-minute scale and the stylized wing logo, with which Hanhart modernized its brand image. Over the years, different versions were created – some with Dauphine hands, others with straight hands reminiscent of the iconic 417 ES. The dial was also available in various color variants. For the reinterpretation, Hanhart opted for a design that stands out particularly due to its combination of tachymeter scale and distinctive red hundred scale.

Tachymeter and hundred scale – functionality with tradition

The new model features a black dial with two sub-dials at 3 and 9 o'clock. The outer tachymeter scale allows for the measurement of speeds over a defined distance, thus providing a functional extension of the chronograph. The dial is complemented by a striking red hundred scale, which has a particularly practical application: In industry, time is often measured in industrial minutes, where one minute is divided into 100 units. This decimal system simplifies the calculation of work and production times – a function that is especially important in technical and industrial fields.

The wing logo – a piece of brand history

A special feature of the 415 ES is the historical wing logo that adorns the watch dial. This symbol was introduced in the 1960s to modernize Hanhart's public image. It had not been seen on any Hanhart wristwatch for over 40 years – until now. With this reissue, this distinctive detail returns and emphasizes the vintage charm of the timepiece.

A bridge between the past and the present

In the reissue of the 415 ES, Hanhart consciously opted for a historically authentic size of 39 mm in diameter. However, the original design was not simply copied, but brought up to date with modern materials and an updated movement. The watch thus embodies the spirit of the 1960s, while remaining a reliable and contemporary choice for lovers of mechanical chronographs.

Robust and reliable – day and night

The 415 ES impresses with a bi-directionally rotating ceramic bezel, which allows for precise adjustment through 60 precise clicks. Inside, the proven Sellita SW 510 M ensures reliable and accurate timekeeping. The case is not only shock-resistant but also anti-magnetic, providing additional protection against external influences. Another highlight is the Hanhart movement damping, which serves as additional shock protection and ensures the longevity of the movement. The manual-wind chronograph features two symmetric pushers that allow for intuitive and easy operation. Thanks to a water resistance of up to 10 Bar (100 m), the watch remains reliable even under demanding conditions. Even in poor lighting conditions, the luminescent material coated with Super-LumiNova® X1 guarantees optimal readability of the hands, indices, and numerals.

Excellent wearing comfort and versatile options

In keeping with the historical model, the 415 ES is delivered with a high-quality leather strap. The inside is lined with soft Alcantara to ensure maximum wearing comfort. Customers can choose from three stylish colors: classic black, deep dark brown, and warm light brown. The innovative quick-release mechanism allows for effortless strap changes without tools, enabling a personalized look for the watch.

With the new 415 ES, Hanhart once again proves that tradition and progress can harmoniously merge. The reissue of this classic remains true to the original aesthetics, yet combines it with the technical achievements of the present – a perfect synthesis of past and modernity.
