German watch brand Hanhart expands its PRIMUS collection by introducing PRIMUS FLY NAVY, a reliable and robust chronograph designed to handle extreme conditions faced by the aviators of the German Navy.
Strictly limited to 150 pieces, the PRIMUS FLY NAVY Chronograph is precise, reliable and easy to read by day and night, making it easy to fly without further navigational assistance.
A special feature of the PRIMUS watch are the flexible lugs, which offer optimal wearing comfort for every wrist, even with a diameter of 44 mm.
The limited PRIMUS FLY NAVY chronograph combines precision and tradition with various maritime details. The second is shown by the trident of the sea god Poseidon, which can also be found on the crest of Naval Aviation Squadron 3 „Graf Zeppelin“.
On the sapphire crystal case back, the crest of either MFG3 or MFG5 squadron can be found. The sapphire crystal caseback also features either the MFG3 Graf Zeppelin or MFG5 crest and can be individually selected. In addition, the watch spotlights the Marineflieger logo on the navy blue dial and on the screw-in crown of the chronograph.
The PRIMUS FLY NAVY chronograph is available with either a stainless steel case or PVD coated case.
The stainless steel case comes with a blue textile strap. The watch with the black PVD coated case comes with a matching black textile strap.
The numerals and hands of the PRIMUS FLY NAVY are coated with the modern Super LumiNova® SLN C3 GL, which ensures perfect readability by day and night.
The crests of the MFG3 Graf Zeppelin and MFG5 squadrons are printed on the glass caseback of the PRIMUS FLY NAVY chronograph and are a symbol of cohesion and solidarity.
In the case of the MFG3 crest, the affiliation to the marine pilots is symbolized by the wing and the anchor in the center. The five stars stand for the five virtues: loyalty, courage, readiness, reliability and endurance.
The MFG5 coat of arms includes water, sea eagle, anchor and wing as elements and has existed in this form since 2013. The head of the sea eagle is meant to preserve the sovereignty over the airspace above sea.
