Ailager® German WW2 Luftwaffe Pilots Watch - The Flieger Chronograph
Product Details
- Iconic Flieger Chronograph reimagined by Ailager
- Modern chronograph function powered by a high-quality Myota Quartz movement
- Premium finish with genuine leather strap, bicompax design and presentation case
This incredible Ailager branded Chronograph is modeled on the iconic watches, highly prized by pilots, produced for private purchase by companies such as Hanhart and Glashütte for German pilots in the Second World War, dating all the way back to 1939. With two pushers and a bicompax dial layout, this classy chronograph lets you wear a little bit of that mystical pilot nostalgia on your wrist.
On the outside of the face, the non-slip bezel gives you count-down and count-up options with its single striking red dash. On the face main time is kept by the central minute and hour hands in a classic Mercedes style for maximum illumination, complemented by 24-hour time kept on the right sub-dial. This is where Ailager has stepped away from the originals, making the decision to embrace modern movements and replacing the original 30-minute dial with 24 hours, a more functional choice for daily wear. Chronographer functions are controlled by the pushers, the top for stop/go and the lower for resetting the stopwatch, returning the central second hand and left minute sub-dial. A brown 'crazy horse' finish genuine leather strap with cream thread stitching and a sturdy brushed steel buckle gives a snug and adjustable fit.
Inside the polished nickel-plated steel case you will find a sleek black face with illuminating hands and numerals. When fully charged by being exposed to bright light the luminous elements will glow for a short period. The length of time will depend on a number of factors including the amount of ambient light available and can vary from 3 to 15 minutes without being recharged by re-exposure. With originals costing up to £10k, these lovely watches are a far more accessible way to get that little bit of history on your wrist. The Luftwaffe Pilot Service Watch arrives in its own beautiful display box, with the name inscribed on top and a tidy deep blue finish.
