Hi all, I’m looking to purchase my first mechanical watch in the next couple of months and am seriously considering either the Hanhart 417 ES 42mm or Tudor Black Bay Chrono. I really love the reverse panda. The Hanhart is quite a bit cheaper than the Tudor but the Tudor has a few advantages such as 200m water resistance. Which would you choose?

    Hanhart for sure! Love that coin edge bezel, so much more unique than that commonplace chrono bezel. The hands on the Hanhart are so much more stylish. I would never buy a Tudor just because of that huge snowflake hand. I just cannot ‘unsee’ it, lol. The field style numerals on the Hanhart are classic. Indices on the Tudor are diver and Rolex wannabes.
