All about the Hanhart PRIMUS FLY NAVY PVD MFG5 44mm

PRIMUS FLY NAVY – Limited Special Edition

The renowned Black Forest watch manufacturer Hanhart expands its PRIMUS collection with an exclusive special edition: the PRIMUS FLY NAVY. With a limited edition of only 150 pieces, this chronograph combines technical precision, maritime symbolism, and a rich tradition. Designed for the demanding conditions of naval aviation, this watch offers reliable performance and outstanding readability – even during low flights over stormy seas, whether in the Arctic or the tropics.

A tribute to naval aviation

The PRIMUS FLY NAVY is a tribute 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 shocks. Even today, precision plays a crucial role in naval aviation, especially during low flights over sea or landings on swaying 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 features the trident of Poseidon – a symbol that is also represented in the coat of arms of the Marinefliegergeschwader 3 "Graf Zeppelin". Furthermore, the buyer can choose between two unique case back decorations made of sapphire glass: the coat of arms of MFG3 or the Marinefliegergeschwader 5. Both badges symbolize connection and the values of the naval aviators.

• Coat of Arms of MFG3: It shows an anchor and a wing as symbols of belonging to the Navy, flanked by five stars that represent the virtues of loyalty, courage, readiness, reliability, and perseverance.
• Coat of Arms of MFG5: Elements such as water, sea eagle, anchor, and wing represent the responsibility to protect the airspace over the sea. The sea eagle's 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 Marine Pilot logo, which is also found on the screw-down crown. The numbers and hands are equipped with the modern Super-LumiNova® SLN C3 GL coating, ensuring perfect readability under all lighting conditions.

Flexibility and wearing comfort

A special feature of the PRIMUS watches is 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 suitable for both everyday use and extreme challenges.

A symbol of precision and tradition

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