Most Underrated German Military Watch: Hanhart TachyTele Chronograph

[@styx4947]

Don't know how many times I've repeated it, but this is the Olny channel on KZbin that puts out consistently educational horology content. Not just 6 min reviews and arguments over whos Rolex holds the most value. Keep it up man. Thanks T.G.V. Onwards and Upwards for 2021.

[@mas3974]

Agree. In my opinion The Urban Gentry has proved to be something of a "must watch" channel.

[@styx4947]

@@mas3974 Indeed it has. You can find a review of the Rolex Daytona,(n-billion or so) or speculate about watches as a commodity, ten alternatives to this or that ad-nauseam. But this is where you get the context, history and significance of the topics everyone clones from each other. Half of them dont why they say the stuff they say, just that it's the "zeitgeist" of the watch community on Instagram.

[@Okido24]

I have two notification channels the TGV is one of them.

[@styx4947]

I always think about the research, editorial and production work put in to the 20 to 30min that we see. Thats above and beyond the reviews themselves.

[@Spectre.007]

I agree!

Marvellous! Big thumbs up for more German watch reviews like this!

[@77cjam]

Great name for a watch, and a bit of a stunner. Love the red printing on black dial. Having lived for a short time in the South of Germany in my much younger days I'm fond of many things German, 🍺 & ⌚ included. As always superb video, many thanks for lifting my spirits on a Monday evening my friend. All the best for 2021

Fantastic! I've been waiting for a long time for an Urban Gentry review of Hanhart ... I'm complete now! Well done, sir!

[@rwkiessling]

Great Job as always TGV, I’m a long-term silent fan, and always look forward to new videos. I really like this brand and watch, the Hanharts are just great Germen Watches. I took a chance on a great buy on a Nutische Instrumente Muhle-Glashutte last year and I am very impressed with it. As my taste changes and develops, I’m really liking the Axis watches (German and Japanese ). Like you, I have a Grand Seiko on the 2021 additions list. I’m going to order the H417 ES, with the light brown strap and underlay. Good enough, for the king of cool, good enough for me. rwk

[@Jsong1]

Love the coin bezel. This piece is so unique. I feel like many watch youtubers talk about the same watches and brands all the time, but your content is always refreshing. Always apreciate your work TGV!

[@stephenscharf6293]

Hi TGV, nice to see you finally covering Hanhart in depth. Hanhart was the very first brand I gave serious consideration to for my first mechanical watch purchase when I got into watches back in 2015 based on a review by Zach Weiss at Worn & Wound. I ultimately went with the Sinn 104i based on your first review, and eventually bought the Hanhart Pioneer One LE 3-hander at the end of 2017. While I really liked the watch, I eventually sold it as I was really pining for the 417 ES that McQueen wore. And, now...Hanhart has released it! Just a note for consideration is that with the "thinner" coin-edge bezels, the 42mm Hanharts wear bigger than their size would indicate. Something to keep in mind for those with smaller wrists. Wonderful watch company though, with beautifully executed designs and an incredible historial legacy. Big fan of Hanhart. Cheers, Stephen

[@andrewd7586]

Being a huge Steve McQueen fan most of my life, I became interested in his various watches he owned. Subsequently I bought several Benrus vintage Vietnam watches, a 1940’s Rolex Oyster Speedking, just the same watch he wore in The Great Escape. Some years ago I came across an early 1940’s Hanhart chronograph. In pretty good condition being vintage. I was hesitant to buy it, but head ruled my “hart”🤣, so I bought it. It’s been cleaned & serviced back then, worn sparingly & keeps amazing time! As you said TGV, they’re bringing good money now. Mine was literally a 1/3rd of the price you quoted.👍🏼 Great vid & honestly I’m tempted on the reissue too! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🍻

[@jacobbeaupre3940]

Hope the new year was good for you TGV. The red on this Hanhart on the pusher, the seconds hand and the pip on the bezel really pop. Gorgeous and no dought useful for visibility.

[@sitzwohlbernhard8625]

Thank you for cheering up this great german brand. Personally i did like the thickness of the watch - it is great to combine with a leather jacket and jump into a convertible - the next best thing you can do when there is no spitfire at hand. The thickness gives it a distinctive tools watch look and makes it an eyecatcher. It is a watch that you can still wear and have fun with whereas other watches tend to rest in the safety of a safe. Thank you for putting up those good videos which are obviously not sponsored and marketing driven. Keep the good work up, i enjoyed watching it.

Happy New Year TGV! You are definitely standing out of the crowd with your educated way of presenting your subjects and your very professional video-making. After watching a lot of watch videos during the last two weeks it's a real pleasure to get more educational content than the usual "...almost no backplay on the bezel" by less prepared KZbinrs. I have a Hanhart Replica of 2001 in sand blasted steel with a 7751 in gold (... from the golden version of the Replica), the most accurate watch I've ever bought and in general a very satisfying product - but still too tall for this simple case architecture 😊😉.

I have to say, I love the look of the Hanhart TTC. That coin edge bezel is a thing of beauty, as is the red-capped chronometer reset. The thickness of the case is merely an example of form following function. The leather strap is also distinctive and classy. Well done, friend.

[@mgb1971]

First let me say that I'm glad I bought the Hanhart 417ES before you review it. I have a feeling that after you do your review, it might be difficult to find one. I think you'll like the 417ES a bit more than the TachyTele because it is thinner having a hand wind movement. It measures 13.5mm and if you wear it on the supplied bund strap, the overall height is 14.8mm. The bund is extremely comfortable and thinner than most.

Thanks for another great video, and lesson in horological history.
