Key Features

• Automatic Chronometer Movement: The self-winding mechanical movement is officially certified by the COSC, meeting stringent standards for precision. This certification ensures the watch performs within -4 to +6 seconds per day, making it a trustworthy companion for those who rely on accurate timekeeping in professional or personal settings.
• Chronograph Functionality: Integrated stopwatch capabilities allow for precise measurement of elapsed time, useful for timing flights, workouts, or any interval-based activity. The subdials are clearly marked and easy to read, supporting quick interpretation during active use.
• Black Dial with Luminous Markers: The matte black dial offers a high-contrast backdrop for the applied hour markers and hands, all treated with luminous material. This ensures visibility in low-light environments, such as night flights or dimly lit rooms, enhancing practicality without compromising elegance.
• 46mm Case Size: With a substantial 46mm diameter, the case makes a strong visual statement while maintaining balance and wearability. Its size is ideal for those who prefer a larger, more assertive presence on the wrist, particularly suited to active lifestyles or professional aviation use.
• Stainless Steel Construction: Built entirely from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the case and bracelet are designed to withstand daily wear, exposure to the elements, and the rigors of travel. The polished and brushed finishes add depth and refinement to the overall design.
• Navitimer Heritage Design: The signature bidirectional rotating bezel features a circular slide rule—an iconic element of the Navitimer series since its inception. This tool enables pilots and aviation enthusiasts to perform essential in-flight calculations, including fuel consumption, airspeed, climb rates, and conversions, directly from the wrist.
