All about the Hanhart PIONEER Silva White Stainless Steel 38.5mm

A touch of spring

With the new shades pastel rose and pistachio green, Hanhart brings a surprisingly fresh note to the Silva line: two colors that deliberately counter the winter gloom while radiating a calm, modern elegance. This makes the Silva feel less like a fashion item and more like a timeless piece of jewelry that brings a little joy to life every day.

Reduction to the essentials

The design follows a clear philosophy: reduced forms, thoughtful proportions, and consistent readability. The 38.5 mm stainless steel case with a slim height of only 10 mm sits discreetly on the wrist without losing its presence, demonstrating how much design quality can lie in simple restraint.

Historical roots, newly interpreted

The Silva is based on a Hanhart model from the 1930s and translates its clear lines into a modern language. The kinship to caliber 36/39 is noticeable, but the execution is technically state-of-the-art: polished stainless steel, convex, internally anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and a screwed case back combine tradition with contemporary manufacturing.

A movement with character

Inside works the Soprod SOP P024 in TOP version — a robust automatic movement that delivers confident everyday values with 28,800 half oscillations and at least 38 hours of power reserve. Features like Glucydur balance and Incabloc® shock protection underline the technical solidity, while the skeletonized rotor with Hanhart logo makes the craftsmanship care visible.

Hanhart Silva Pistachio

Dial and readability

The dials in pistachio green or pastel rose are not just colored surfaces; they combine high-contrast hands with distinctive dots and the historic Hanhart logo, so the display is immediately and reliably read. This focus on clear information instead of superfluous ornaments is a core element of the model and guarantees high practicality.

Wearing comfort and selection

For wearing comfort, there are two strap options: a calf leather strap with Alcantara inner side for softness and a Milanese stainless steel version for a slightly more elegant look. With a lug-to-lug measurement of 44 mm and water resistance of 5 bar, the Silva remains an everyday companion that performs confidently both in the office and during more intense activities — a watch for every day.

German precision as a quality promise

Hanhart regulates and tests every movement in the manufactory in Gütenbach; the brand sets strict standards for accuracy (0 to +8 seconds per day on average), aiming for long-term reliability. This meticulous adjustment is an expression of a craft commitment that has a tradition at Hanhart.

Craftsmanship details made visible

The screwed sapphire crystal back not only offers protection but also insight into the refined mechanics; the engraved serial number also makes each Silva an individual object. Such details show that no corners were cut here, but that the watch is consistently designed for quality in both design and execution.

A coherent whole

In its blend of fine shaping, modern technology, and restrained color scheme, the Silva is an example of how familiar values can be reinterpreted: unobtrusive in appearance, carefully crafted, yet with a clear character — a watch you like to wear because it is both stylish and reliable.

FAQs

About me

My name is David, I was born in the late 60s in NRW, now live and work in the beautiful Harz Mountains, and have been running this watch shop, among other things, since spring 2022.

Since 2018, I have also been running my watch blog watchdavid.de, which features hundreds of reviews and watch news. Since then, I have taken thousands of professional watch photos for over 100 watch brands. Many photos can be found in my reviews. I am known worldwide for this.

As a result, I naturally had thousands of watches in my hands. And with this shop, I want to bring you closer to watches that have convinced me in many ways.

So come along on a journey full of watches... off the mainstream... and if you have a question, please feel free to ask me anytime via the form, chat, WhatsApp, email or phone.

I am very much looking forward to meeting you.

PS: My hobbies & passions include the internet (first agency already in 1996), Denmark, France's coasts (Brittany, Normandy & Côte d’Azur), hiking, e-MTB, sales (Bachelor of Sales) and photography.

My Achilles' heel includes children's chocolate, good food, sneakers & of course watches... :-)

Shipping & Insurance

Within Germany and the EU, I ship free of charge. Shipping is done via DHL and insured up to 500€, 2,500€, or 25,000€, depending on the watch value. The watches are thus always sufficiently insured.

The delivery time can be found in the description and/or under the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after ordering, others are brand new and, for example, only available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...

Cancellation & Return Shipping

You can cancel your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.

I will cover the costs for the return shipping for you.

IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself, I will send you the free return label.

Please simply contact me for this. david@watchdavid.com

It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of signs of use. After successful inspection, I will refund you the purchase price. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.

Authenticity & Condition of the Watches

I guarantee you that all watches I offer are exclusively new original products. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly point this out (e.g. so-called PHOTO WATCHES).

As an official dealer, I offer you exclusively authentic products. These are offered in the original packaging, with warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in the so-called full set. One delivers more, another less...

Warranty & Service

All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which usually lasts two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.

If a warranty case occurs, I will take care of the shipping to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and also organize the return shipment to you. In addition, I handle all communication with the manufacturer so that you don't have to worry about anything.

Even after the warranty period has expired, I remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.

No response received?

You wrote to me via the contact form, through the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you haven't received a reply?

Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and pushing more and more into spam.

I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it can sometimes take a bit longer. As a rule, I respond within a few minutes or hours.

Something can slip past me sometimes too. Or the technology doesn't work as it should. Feel free to write to me again at david@watchdavid.com

Mechanics - Sometimes things can happen there too

Before I ship your order, I carefully check each watch for visible defects.

If a problem should occur, such as damage during transport, please inform me immediately. I will do everything possible to quickly find a solution and ensure that you are satisfied.

My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
