Description
The RACEMASTER collection can be understood as a reminiscence to the close association with motor racing in the 1960s and 1970s. The colour scheme used for the dial reflects the colours of the legendary racing cars of the 1960s and 1970s: the anthracite-tinted middle section provides a strikingly contrasting backdrop for the bright red hands and is surrounded by a ring-shaped minutes scale, which is white on the RACEMASTER GT, light blue on the GTM and orange on the GTF.
The chronographs RACEMASTER GT, GTM and GTF with its sporty, technology-inspired design, are the first models produced by Hanhart to feature watchcases made from HDSPro® steel, which is 100 times more scratch-resistant than conventional stainless steel. It is also worth taking a look at the back of the three models: the closed case backs, as conventionally seen on instrument watches, are decorated with an elaborate engraving of a starter’s flag crossed with a chequered flag.
The RACEMASTER chronographs are further characterised by trademark details which have been unmistakable features of Hanhart since the start: the typical “bicompax” display format, the red button, the asymmetrical button arrangement. Perfect, high-precision functionality and optimum readability come as standard with these instrument watches.
