Up for auction is this collection of four (4) vintage Hanhart mechanical rally timers. All of these timers are reported to be fully functional and come affixed to three separate aluminum mounting plates with machined screws and spacers. The collection includes:
I. A 2-pusher, 60-second Hanhart rally timer with a 30-second center dial. This piece features separate green (start), red (stop), and black (reset) pushers in a gray-ribbed case. It comes attached to a vintage aluminum clipboard made of stainless steel diamond plate featuring vintage Koni and Magneti Marelli stickers. The mount can be easily removed from the clipboard and directly fitted to your dashboard. The clipboard measures 15 ½” X 9” overall with a 3 ½” X 2 ½” sub-mount.
II. Two Hanhart vintage dual-pusher rally timers with alternating black and red numerals. Both pieces are 30-second timers with 15-minute center dials. They are affixed to an aluminum desk-display that can be separated in order to mount the timers on your dashboard. This set measures 7” x 3”.
III. A Hanhart vintage 3-pusher "Rattrapante" rally timer. It features a 100-second dial (7 jewels) and 30-minute center dial. The mount can be used as a desk-top display or separated for use on a dashboard. This Hanhart Rattrapante watch features a rare and sophisticated mechanism that can be used to time two separate events simultaneously.

Hello Everyone. I am here to answer questions on this final day of bidding.
A word on payment & shipping: Payment is made directly to the Seller once the auction ends, NOT to PCar. This is the PCar Market procedure. I accept Bank Wire, PayPal or Venmo for payment. Once payment is made, I will then ship the items won directly to you. (PCar will share emails so that Seller & Buyer can communicate with each other after the auction ends). I ship items in the Continental USA 2nd Day Delivery with insurance and a signature required. The insurance is set at the winning bid amount of the item plus the fees the Buyer has paid to PCarMarket so that the Buyer is fully protected in the event of a loss. For International deliveries to select countries, the cost and the delivery time will be much greater. Please note, per the listing above, the Buyer's winning bid plus the cost of the shipping will be added to the final invoice due the Seller at the time of payment. I am outlining here so that there is no confusion. Please let me know if there are any questions.
Good Luck Bidding!

@valdieu It's a choice to be made solely by the Buyer. The Halda requires hard wiring to the car as I recall and can be extremely accurate. For practical racing application, the Halda may be the way to go. These timepieces, however, are strictly vintage mechanical timepieces and offer the Buyer a bit of nastalgia and flair, but also can be separated from their mountings and used outside the car. Some have been mounted to aluminum that also serves as a desk display, not only a racing application.

Hello,
First time on Pcarmarket ! What is the advantage of these vis a vis a Halda Tripmaster ? Could this lot be shipped to Switzerland if I am successful and who will be in charge to do so, Pcarmarket or the seller ?
Thank you,
