After more than two years of intensive development, Hanhart presents the new Preventor HD12™ in scratch-resistant steel.

With the introduction of the exclusive HD12™ steel, Hanhart is setting a new benchmark in terms of the scratch resistance of its cases. As an extension of the popular PIONEER collection, the Preventor HD12™ fulfils the desire for a 3-hand model with central seconds and a more compact diameter of 39 mm. The water resistance of 15 ATM and a screw-down crown make the new Hanhart watch the perfect everyday companion.

The new HD12™ steel from Hanhart achieves an exceptional surface hardness without compromising the corrosion resistance of the stain-less steel. This innovative material is being used for the first time in Hanhart’s company history for the case of the new Preventor HD12™ watch. They combine two high-tech processes in the elaborate, multi-stage production of its HD12™ cases to preserve the fine details in the appearance of the case in addition to optimum scratch resistance. As a result, the new Preventor HD12™ not only has an extremely hard surface, but also brushed, matt and glossy surfaces.

With this process, the HD12™ steel achieves an impressive surface hardness of up to 1200 HV (Vickers hardness), which makes the watch case many times more resistant to scratches. The Preventor HD12™ impresses with its clearly designed dial, which is available in the colours dark blue and black. It has three central hands, with the second hand having a distinctive red tip that enables precise reading.
The minute and second hands are curved at the end to avoid parallax errors. Both the numerals and the hands are coated with SuperLuminova® C1, which makes them glow in the dark and en-sures optimum legibility at all times.
Various strap options are available for the Preventor HD12™. Three versions are available made from high-quality calfskin, each with an Alcantara inner side for increased comfort. These leather straps are available in the colours black, dark brown and light brown and feature white stitching, no rivets and a classic pin buckle.
