140 years of Hanhart: Column wheel chronograph with flyback
140 years ago, Johann A. Hanhart set the cornerstone for Hanhart as a brand. What started as a shop selling watches, swiftly evolved into a manufacturer, producing precise timepieces with a stop function. In celebration of this significant anniversary, Hanhart presents the 417 ES Flyback series collection.
The 417 ES flyback complication is available in two case sizes with two dial options, each of which is equipped with Hanhart’s manual-winding flyback calibre with an integrated column wheel.
The importance of the 417 ES
The re-release of Hanhart’s legendary 417 ES model in 2000 marked the beginning of a success story. Following the relaunch of the 42mm model, Hanhart introduced the classic 417 ES 1954 in a 39 mm case – the same size as the original on exhibition in Hanhart’s museum. The 417 ES Flyback marks the next chapter in Hanhart’s story and is sure to be a hit with fans of classic watches and authentic watch
complications.
The return of the Flyback
The Flyback complication pays tribute to Hanhart’s long tradition of producing chronographs and gives a nod to the company’s most popular model. In fact, the original 417 ES, designed for pilots of the German Air Force, was equipped with “Temposchaltung”, or “flyback function” as we know it. The mechanism allows immediate measurement of a new timing interval via the reset pusher. The high-grade AMT5100 M calibre responsible for precision originates from Sellita’s manufactory AMT department. It controls the chronograph via a column wheel and has a power reserve of at least 58 hours when fully wound.
Two sizes – your wrist, your choice
To ensure versatility, the 417 ES Flyback is available in 39 mm and 42 mm stainless-steel cases.
Each size delivers a similar aesthetic and functionality with size options designed to suit a wider variety of wrist sizes. While all models are water resistant to 10bar (100m), there is one technological difference: the 42 mm watch has a transparent sapphire crystal case back revealing the flyback calibre, while the 39 mm model is manufactured with an anti-magnetic case, which is resistant up to 16,000 A/m according to DIN 8309.
Panda and Reverse Panda
In addition to the technical development, the 417 ES Flyback stands out visually from the previously launched models in the 417 ES collection thanks to its dial treatment. Each case size is available with both the white and black Panda dial or the black and white Reverse Panda dial. Both designs provide strong contrast and excellent legibility, even in poor lighting conditions, thanks to the use of Super-LumiNova C3 on hands and numerals.
The 39mm PANDA dial model is a smart looking, highly functional watch that is exceptionally comfortable on the wrist. The bund-style leather cuff adds to its presence but can be removed if a more subtle wear is required.
