Aviation-style watches are always going to garner our attention here at The Find Ledger and the guys at Hanhart are definitely one of the best in the business in this arena – something that their latest release, the PIONEER Flieger One NightBlue Watch, admirably illustrates. This is a new special edition, limited to only 150 pieces and it boasts a dark blue dial paired with a black PVD-coated case and distinctive cowhide strap with suede finish and red cross stitching on the lugs give the watch a unique design.
Priced at £1100, the Hanhart PIONEER Flieger One NightBlue is the perfect entry level luxury watch in our opinion and by reducing it to a three-hand timepiece, the unique charm of the 1950s is brought back to life in a contemporary fashion. Matching the style of the watch, the stainless steel case has been black PVD coated and the case back bears the respective limitation number XXX/150 and the historical Hanhart “h”.
The convex, internally anti-reflective sapphire crystal watch face provides excellent protection against scrapes, and with a water resistance of up to 10 bar / 10 ATM, the PIONEER Flieger One NightBlue is ideally suited for everyday use and outdoor adventures in 2023 and beyond.
Inside the watch, you’ll find the ever-reliable SW 200 automatic movement from the renowned Swiss manufacturer Sellita in the best Swiss-made quality. It has a power reserve of 38 hours and this classy-looking aviation-inspired timepiece is comfortable to wear from day dot courtesy of the strap made of ox leather in blue with a devilishly dapper suede finish.
The numerals and hands of the limited PIONEER Flieger One NightBlue are coated with modern Super LumiNova® C1 luminous material for improved readability in low light conditions and each one of these watches has been crafted by Hanhart with a real emphasis on the best robustness and readability.
