In keeping with its commitment to designing robust and versatile everyday watches, Hanhart has reinvented its MAD Preventor HD12 watch series in a more compact 36mm variant. This exclusive edition is the result of a collaboration with the British watch enthusiast known colloquially as the MAD collector. This reinvention carries forward the technical elements prized in the original series, with Hanhart using its proprietary HD12 steel for this unique timepiece. The special alloy offers greater surface hardness while also exhibiting corrosion-resistant properties, providing durability alongside polishability.
The 36mm case of the Hanhart MAD Preventor HD12 stands 10.5mm thick with a lug-to-lug measurement of 43mm. The case has been treated with a transparent hard coating for additional surface protection. Compared with the standard 316L steel hardiness of around 220 HV, the Preventor HD12 series has achieved a significant hardness increase up to 1200 HV.
