Hanhart chronograph watches have a storied history, particularly in connection with military aviation during the 20th century. Founded in 1882, Hanhart became a prominent watchmaker by the 1930s, producing some of the earliest and most reliable chronographs for pilots.
These watches were designed with precision in mind, featuring highly legible dials, robust cases, and a flyback function—a critical feature allowing pilots to reset the chronograph with a single push for precise timekeeping during missions. During World War II, Hanhart supplied chronographs to the German Luftwaffe, where they were valued for their accuracy and durability under extreme conditions.
The Hanhart chronograph has since become an iconic piece in the world of horology, with its vintage models revered by collectors for their historical significance and engineering excellence.
