Instructions: Print out the document and make sure that no page scaling is preset. Cut out the template along the red dotted line. Place the watch on your wrist and pull the strap through the cut slit. Make sure that the template is not too tight on your wrist and that you have a little space between your fingers. Please note that leather underlays result in a longer strap length.

Description
REMINISCENCE OF A LONG TRADITION
PRIMUS Racer
The PRIMUS Racer cites Hanhart's long tradition as the most important manufacturer of hand stopwatches. Hanhart used to provide the timepieces at important automobile races: the judges held their leather writing tablets in their left hand and operated the three Hanhart stopwatches with their right. Classic car rally drivers still rely on Hanhart watches today. Maximum functionality, ease of use and excellent readability are the top priorities for reliable and simple stopping of intermediate or end times. Hanhart also followed this maxim for the PRIMUS Racer.
ULTRA-PRECISE TIME MEASUREMENT
HISTORIC & MODERN
For safe and simple use in measuring time intervals or for navigating in the air and on water, but also for stopping intermediate and end times or distances on land, maximum functionality, ease of use and excellent readability were the top priorities. Unnecessary gimmicks or design elements on the case and dial were undesirable. Hanhart continues to be guided by this maxim. For precise time display and measurement, the models in the Primus collection are equipped with an automatic caliber modified to display the totalizers at 3 and 9 o'clock, which has an oscillating weight skeletonized to the Hanhart logo. This allows the small seconds at 9 o'clock and the 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock to be clearly arranged - a display that has been common at Hanhart from the very beginning. The clear, generous design of the applied and polished Arabic numerals, the partly red indexes, the continuous minute scale and the polished hands coated with Super-LumiNova® all contribute to perfect readability.
SPORTY & CONTEMPORARY
NEW WEARING COMFORT
The solid, elegant and high-quality case made of stainless steel or black DLC-coated stainless steel emphasizes the sporty, contemporary appearance of the Primus chronographs; the flexible screw-in lugs ensure optimum wearing comfort on every wrist. The black or silver-colored dial is covered by a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the inside, while a screw-down sapphire crystal case back reveals the fascinating play of the movement and the oscillating weight. The Primus Racer is completed by a contrasting stitched strap made of the finest calfskin or rubber and a practical, easy-to-adjust folding clasp with inset red markings.
A LEGEND BECOMES A TRADEMARK
THE RED PUSHER
The red reset button on the side is a striking feature of the PRIMUS collection. Legend has it that when a young pilot put on his Hanhart one morning, he discovered that his wife had painted one of the pushers with red nail polish so that he would always think of her and return unharmed. This striking red pusher became Hanhart's trademark from 1939 onwards. It prevented the pilots from unintentionally resetting the stopped time during the flight and thus leaving the correct course.
PERFECT FOR EVERY ADVENTURE
THE PRIMUS COLLECTION
In memory of Hanhart's eventful history, the young PRIMUS collection confidently presents itself with progressive design and state-of-the-art technology. The hint of historical elements is reflected in this line in the red comfort pusher made of anodized aluminium and in a striking fluted bezel. The innovative chronographs impress with their size, grip and ease of use and, thanks to the solid, high-quality stainless steel case, meet all the requirements of a reliable, robust and attractive watch. A strap made from the finest calfskin, canvas with a leather inside or vulcanized rubber ensures optimum comfort on the wrist. A screw-down sapphire crystal case back reveals the fascinating play of the movement and the oscillating weight. It is an ETA7750 or Sellita SW 500 basic movement with a modification for the typical Hanhart dial design with totalizers at 3 and 9 o'clock.
