A contemporary take on the classic Pilot Watch.
From its earliest beginnings, with the Wright Brothers in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina in 1903, powered flight never depended purely on aeronautics. The moment point-to-point flights became viable, navigational instruments became an integral part of flight equipment.
Navigation meant timekeeping, for to-the-second precision, in order to make the necessary calculations for each leg of a flight. As the operating range of aeroplanes grew, navigation relied on maps, mathematics and accurate timing rather than looking for landmarks on the ground. Timepieces, whether mounted on the instrument panel or on the pilot’s wrist, became vital, life-preserving devices, tools to ensure pinpoint accuracy whether you were bound for a target or heading home.
The domed sapphire crystal blends smoothly with the sloping matt ceramic bezel and the reverse pie-pan dial, creating a bold and contemporary feel. The black, one piece dial with oversized markings is hand-filled with Super-LumiNova for optimal visibility.

British design meets Swiss engineering.
Unique one-piece dials
Small things matter to us. Like the fact that our dials are etched so they form a well for the application of our lume. And the fact that our lume is hand-painted by specialists in Switzerland.
Individual casebacks and serial numbers
Turn over every one of our watches and you’ll find a serial number on the back and one of the lugs. This not only marks the watch out as ‘yours’ – it makes it unique.
Highly corrosion-resistant
For all our watches we’ve sourced a special high-grade brushed stainless steel called 904L, a luxury and harder-to-mill version than the more common 316L. It also takes a higher polish than other grades of steel, so it shines up really nicely. It’s the reason you’ll see it used by the world’s best luxury watchmakers.
