Inside Germany's Most Prestigious Chronograph Watchmaker: A Never Before Seen Tour At Hanhart

Video Description

A few years ago I finally acquired my grail watch. But this was no ordinary grail...this watch was 140 years in the making. In this video I delve deep into the story behind one of the most important chronograph watches ever made, and a favorite of iconic actor Steve McQueen—the Hanhart 417 ES. I travel to Germany for a behind-the-scenes look at where this classic watch was created, and share the story of one of the country's greatest watch brands and how they created one of the most influential military chronographs of all time. Join me for an exclusive tour of the Hanhart watch factory in Germany's beautiful Black Forest region, where I chat with the Hanhart team about their watchmaking process, the brand's history, the creation of their museum, the evolution of their timepieces, and why they have such an exciting and promising future ahead of them.
