here is hardly a cult watch or luxury wristwatch that does not fascinate Gisbert L. Brunner. The renowned journalist, collector and watch connoisseur has been dealing with all the highlights of the watch industry for 60 years and is respected worldwide as an expert. Brunner has published more than 25 books on his favourite topics relating to luxury brands and cult watches.

In the latest volume of the Watch Book series published by teNeues Verlag, the successful author once again focuses on the fascinating world of timekeeping. The comprehensive new work sheds light on the history of the wristwatch in Germany and in particular on the traditional brand Hanhart, which has stood for precision and innovation for over 140 years.

An incredibly exciting book, it is not only for those who are interested in watches. Gisbert L. Brunner has succeeded in providing unique details and previously unknown insights. At the same time, it is a book that never gets boring or long-winded.

Hanhart has been producing high-quality timepieces since 1882, from the world’s first affordable mechanical stopwatch to the 417 ES, the first pilot’s chronograph for the German Armed Forces. This book tells the story of the brand through stunning images and fascinating anecdotes, highlighting key milestones and the challenges it has faced over the years in the dynamic watchmaking industry.

The 24.5 x 31.4 cm hardcover book is ideal for use as a coffee table book. The information text on each page of the book is written in both English and German. The price is 80 Euros including VAT.
