Hi all, I’m looking to purchase my first mechanical watch in the next couple of months and am seriously considering either the Hanhart 417 ES 42mm or Tudor Black Bay Chrono. I really love the reverse panda. The Hanhart is quite a bit cheaper than the Tudor but the Tudor has a few advantages such as 200m water resistance. Which would you choose?
Hanhart. The chronograph Steve McQueen wore other than for the cameras.
I’m very much considering one soon too!
Between these 2, the hanhart. This wasnt asked but man zenith pilot chrono is also cool- but wayyyy pricey
Tudor all day every day. I’ve never liked the knurled bezels on the Hanharts. Not knocking it, but I like the Tudor a lot more.
The Hanhart is more beautiful but the Tudor looks more solidly built. I fucking hate those leather straps btw.
Hanhart no question
I like the Tudor style more but I have no idea why they insist on selling it on that horrible strap.
I’d pick the Hanhart personally.
Is this a trick question?
Hanhart, obviously.
Whoa, how have I never seen Hanhart!? That is one of the coolest chronos I’ve seen. Thanks for posting!
Absolutely! I only discovered them about 10 months ago thanks to the YouTube channel The Urban Gentry
Hanhart. I’m also fairly sure the bezel rotates so you can roughly track hours or minutes.
Hanhart! No snowflake hand blocking the sundials, and the bezel will be useful for tracking elapsed hours.
Tudor, the fit is incredible.
I love a no date chronograph 💙

Isn‘t the Hanhart really thick? If so, Tudor
