Time to start having some fun with my PAM 673 Marina Militare:















Happy Holidays to those of you celebrating Labor Day Today!

Had a DHL delivery today: Hanhart Revolution 417 Bronze LE. I saw this online soon as it came out on Aug7, and ordered it immediately. I passed up a Tutima Flieger 1941 a few years ago, and regretted it ever since. I was waiting for Hanhart to bring out their similar Flieger chrono in a manual wind, and it finally appeared in the form of a bronze watch. Totally sexy watch, and first time I have had a watch on a Bund strap. Now, I just have to wait for the patina to start forming!





















An exciting Labor Day indeed!

Outstanding piece, Carl! I bet it will look even better with patina!

That is a cool looking table!

carl - Congrats on the new bronze. Is there a name for that style bezel with the coin edge abs red at 12? I’ve seen that on a couple of other watches but have never seen a description for it.

I like the whitewashed wall behind it too.

Thanks, Roger. Not sure about a name, other than I have also seen it referred to as a coin edge and also fluted on the Hanhart website.

I had missed out on a Tutima Flieger 1941 a few years ago, and regretted it. It had the same type of bezel. I have been waiting for Tutima or Hanhart to come out with a similar model with this bezel and also a manually wound movement. Finally they did, at least Revolution did having Hanhart do the watch for them. To my surprise, the price is almost the same as the Tutima was that I missed out on!

Absent is the signature Hanhart red chrono pusher.

Carl does the bezel rotate? The red marker has me wondering. BTW congrats..

Thanks but it’s just leftover beige paint on chipboard.

Well, not all of the Hanhart chronographs have it. It seems that the mono pushers, and some of the models with 2 pushers have it. It seems to be on the models with the asymmetrical pushers, each pusher being a different distance from the crown. The original 417 that this one is based on never had it, though. Apparently the red pusher was so pilots would not inadvertently return the chronograph back to zero.

Thanks, Mark. Yes, it is a bi-directional rotating bezel, but non-ratcheting.
