Swiss Military Hanowa 6-4231.04.001 Watch Review Summary
My rating: 9.5/10. Excellent watch. Fantastic value for money.
Today I’m doing a Swiss Military Hanowa 6-4231.04.001 review. When it comes to value for money Swiss Military absolutely nail it, offering a sapphire glass fronted watch with a Swiss quartz movement all for under £100 which is a rather impressive achievement. You will very rarely see me give a watch such a high individual score of 9.5/10 but this watch has earned it. Overall I like the design of the watch with it’s clean and clear design making the dial very easy to read. They’ve included luminous hands to make it easier to right in dim lit conditions which is a nice addition. The strap is made of a soft genuine leather which will be extra comfortable as well. All in all a very nice watch but let’s take a look at some specifications below.

I already own a Victorinox Swiss Army ( Airforce ) watch which Ive had for about 5 years now and just like the idea of owning a relatively decent Swiss made watch for around £200 – £250 without breaking the bank ! My question is , how do you rate Hanowa against Victorinox ( or indeed any other Swiss made military style watch of similar price range ?
Thanks.
Mike
Have you done a Swiss military Hanowa review of the whole brand? I wanted a detailed look at the overall brand but came across this. It’s still handy, but perhaps you could point me in the right direction of a brand review? Cheers
