Founded in Schwenningen, Germany in 1882, Hanhart is one of the oldest and most authentic chronograph manufacturers in the world — a brand that supplied precision stopwatches and wrist chronographs to the German military from the 1930s onwards and never lost that direct, tool-oriented character. The Pioneer MonoControl revives Hanhart's most historically significant format: the single-pusher chronograph, as designed for German naval officers in 1938. One red button controls all chronograph functions — start, stop, and reset in sequence — a mechanical discipline that forces deliberate, considered timing and gives the watch a purity that a conventional two-pusher chronograph simply cannot match.

Reference 722 is a 42 mm stainless steel automatic chronograph, 15 mm in thickness, with a brushed case, a large deeply bevelled crown and the signature red monopusher at two o'clock. The silver dial carries a snailed texture that shifts subtly in light, with Arabic numerals, luminescent poire-style hands and a quarter-second minute track. The bi-compax layout places a 30-minute counter at three o'clock and small seconds at nine, both recessed below the main dial plane for a nice depth effect, with a date display at six. At its heart beats the Hanhart Calibre HAN3911, based on the ETA 7750 with a La Joux-Perret monopusher module. The convex sapphire crystal is anti-reflective on both sides. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres. The watch is presented on a brown calfskin leather strap with a stainless steel pin buckle.
