Hanhart FLY NAVY Aerosphere stainless steel

The FLY NAVY Aerosphere: A limited special edition for the highest demands

With the FLY NAVY Aerosphere, Hanhart expands its collection with a new special edition limited to only 300 pieces. This exclusive watch combines tradition, precision, and robustness and was specially developed for the demanding conditions of naval aviation. Whether flying low over stormy seas, in the tropics, or in the icy Arctic – this watch proves itself in extreme situations through its reliability and excellent legibility day and night.

Tradition and precision for over 100 years

The German Navy has placed great value on precision and durability for over 110 years – values that Hanhart has also pursued since its founding in 1882. This connection to seafaring and aviation has a long tradition. Early on, Hanhart's pilot watches had to withstand extreme conditions such as shocks, temperature fluctuations, and altitude differences – challenges that still shape the daily life of naval aviators today.

The FLY NAVY Aerosphere stands in this tradition and was developed as a reliable companion for challenging missions. Especially in flying over the sea, where weather, wind, and water are unpredictable, its precise mechanics prove indispensable.

Maritime design with mythological accents

The navy blue dial of the FLY NAVY Aerosphere features the naval aviator logo and recalls its close connection to seafaring. The seconds hand is designed with the stylized trident of Poseidon – a tribute to the Greek sea god and a symbol of maritime strength.

On the screwed sapphire crystal case back, the wearer can choose between two different crests: that of Naval Air Wing 3 “Graf Zeppelin” (MFG3) or Naval Air Wing 5 (MFG5). These precisely embossed crests symbolize cohesion and connection.

• MFG3 Crest: The anchor and wing represent affiliation with naval aviation, while the five stars represent the virtues loyalty, courage, readiness, reliability, and endurance.
• MFG5 Crest: This design, used since 2013, integrates water, sea eagle, anchor, and wings. The head of the sea eagle symbolizes sovereignty over the airspace above the sea.

Outstanding functions and features

The FLY NAVY Aerosphere impresses with its technical features that qualify it for the most extreme operating conditions:

• Water Resistance: Up to 30 bar (300 meters), ideal for deep diving.
• Helium Valve: An indispensable feature for deep divers, integrated into the case at 10 o'clock.
• Super-LumiNova® Coating: Hands and numerals are equipped with this modern luminous material to ensure perfect readability even in dark or difficult lighting conditions.
• Bezel: The unidirectional bezel with 60 clicks ensures maximum functionality. The font of the numerals is designed in standard script to guarantee clear readability.

Flexibility and style

The limited watch is available in two variants, each limited to 150 pieces:

1. Hook Strap™ textile band: With Alcantara inner side for high wearing comfort – ideal for extended wear during missions or everyday life.
2. Stainless steel bracelet: For an elegant and robust look that also proves itself during leisure activities or formal occasions.

Thanks to its versatile aesthetics, the FLY NAVY Aerosphere fits both a relaxed beach vacation and the challenging tasks of a naval aviator.
