With a 39mm size, the watch features an ultra-legible dial available in black, blue, and a limited Silk Purple release. Notably, the Preventor HD12 incorporates advanced design elements such as Super-LumiNova C1 X2 lume for visibility and a robust construction that includes a solid screw-down caseback and a hardened steel casing, ensuring water resistance up to 150 meters. The watch is powered by either a Sellita SW200-1 or Soprod SOP PO24 caliber, both reliable Swiss movements with a solid 38-hour power reserve. Positioned competitively against popular models like the Sinn 556 and Hamilton Murph, the Preventor HD12 offers significant value at a price of €1,295. Its minimalist design, characterized by a well-structured dial and an ergonomic bracelet, adds to its appeal as an everyday watch that can withstand daily wear and tear. Despite minor issues with comfort in the bracelet design, the overall functionality and aesthetic make it a noteworthy contender in the realm of tool watches. Each piece comes in a leather travel case, highlighting Hanhart's commitment to quality and presentation.
