Hanhart PRIMUS FLY NAVY PVD MFG5 44mm

PRIMUS FLY NAVY – Limited Special Edition

The renowned Black Forest watch manufacturer Hanhart is expanding its PRIMUS collection with an exclusive special edition: the PRIMUS FLY NAVY. Limited to just 150 pieces, this chronograph combines technical precision, maritime symbolism, and a rich tradition. Developed for the demanding conditions of naval aviation, this watch offers reliable performance and outstanding legibility – even during low-level flights over stormy seas, be it in the Arctic or the Tropics.

A Tribute to Naval Aviation

The PRIMUS FLY NAVY is a homage to over a century of precision and tradition, both in the German Navy and at Hanhart, whose history dates back to 1882. In the past, pilot watches had to withstand extreme challenges: from massive temperature fluctuations to enormous altitude differences and strong vibrations. Even today, precision plays a crucial role in naval aviation, especially during low-level flights over the sea or landings on pitching ship decks. The PRIMUS FLY NAVY is a loyal companion in such extreme situations and at the same time a stylish addition for more relaxed occasions.

Maritime Details with Symbolic Depth

The special edition emphasizes its maritime roots through numerous details. The second hand bears Poseidon's trident – a symbol also featured in the emblem of the Naval Air Wing 3 "Graf Zeppelin". Furthermore, the buyer can choose between two unique sapphire glass case back designs: the emblem of MFG3 or Naval Air Wing 5. Both badges symbolize solidarity and the values of naval aviators.

• Emblem of MFG3: It shows anchors and wings as a sign of belonging to the Navy, flanked by five stars representing the virtues of loyalty, courage, readiness, reliability, and endurance.
• Emblem of MFG5: Elements such as water, sea eagle, anchor, and wings represent the responsibility to protect the airspace over the sea. The sea eagle head symbolizes sovereignty over this area.

Design and Materials

The PRIMUS FLY NAVY chronographs are available in two variants:

1. Stainless steel case: Combined with a navy-blue textile strap and a deep blue dial.
2. PVD-coated case: Complemented by a black textile strap for a subtle, modern appearance.

The navy-blue dial features the stylized naval aviator logo, which is also found on the screw-down crown. The numerals and hands are equipped with the modern Super-LumiNova® SLN C3 GL coating, ensuring perfect legibility under all lighting conditions.

Flexibility and Wearing Comfort

A special feature of PRIMUS watches are the flexible lugs, which ensure maximum wearing comfort – even with an impressive diameter of 44 mm. The chronograph combines robust design with pleasant ergonomics, making it ideal for both everyday wear and extreme challenges.

A Symbol of Precision and Tradition

The limited PRIMUS FLY NAVY embodies the values of Hanhart and German naval aviation. With its unique combination of technical excellence and emotional symbolism, this watch is not only a reliable timepiece but also a piece of maritime history on the wrist.
