The Hanhart Red X Flyback Collector's Set includes a manually wound flyback column wheel chronograph wristwatch with either an anthracite grey or royal blue dial packaged alongside a matching flyback stopwatch and dash plate. If the dashboard of your rally car is already complete, the table stand can serve to create an impressive conversation piece for a desk or shelf.
Only 140 twin collector's sets will be produced in each dial color.
The limited edition number is engraved on the case back of each watch.
New Manufacture AMT® Calibre 5100 M
Powered by the manually wound Manufacture AMT
® Calibre 5100 M, the clearly visible blue column wheel ensures a smooth operation of the chronograph functions, while the flyback complication allows a quick reset while the chronograph hand is in motion.
What is a Flyback Chronograph?
A flyback chronograph is one of the easiest chronographs to operate.
Rather than having to remember to stop the chronograph hand before resetting, the reset button at 4 may be pressed while the chronograph hand is in motion causing that hand to "fly back" to 0.
This function allows continuous operation of the chronograph when timing multiple events, as one push returns the chronograph hand to 0 but does not stop its operation - it simply starts over to time the next event.
This chronograph can also function as a traditional chronograph using the pusher at 2 to start and stop the chronograph and the pusher at 4 to reset.
Column Wheel Construction
Most chronograph watches in production today are cam actuated, using two layers of metal to receive input from the pushers and transmit that input to the clutch.
A column wheel chronograph uses a single part to perform both functions, and is often compared to a castle's turret. The column wheel is more difficult and labor intensive to manufacture than a cam actuated design, and requires more skill and patience to complete.
The advantage to a column wheel design is a more precise feel to the operation of the chronograph.
Historic Design
The two register chronograph layout features a 30 minute register at 3 and a small seconds register at 9. In keeping with their historical watch designs, Hanhart has chosen to use the vintage Hanhart logo on the dial, crown and buckle.
The case is in stainless steel and is fitted with a friction fit fluted bi-directional rotating bezel with a red indicator.
