Key Characteristics of Pilot Watches
Initially designed for pilots and aviators, pilot's watches are easily distinguished by their unique blend of design, practicality and bold aesthetics. The watches feature various characteristics that cater to the needs of pilots, frequent travellers, or aviation enthusiasts alike.
- Large, easy-to-read dials: the watches feature oversized dials with high-contrast colours and large, bold numerals, ensuring the time can be read at a glance.
- Luminescence: the dials feature luminous markers and hands, which are essential for reading the time in low-light conditions or at night.
- Anti-reflective sapphire crystal: it reduces glare and enhances clarity during flight.
- Large crown: the crown is designed to be large, allowing pilots to control and operate the features without removing their gloves.
- Chronograph function: many pilot watches feature a chronograph function for timing events. The chronograph should have sub-dials for measuring seconds, minutes and hours. Some also include a flyback function for instant resetting and restarting of the timer.
- GMT/Dual Time: as one of the key design features of a pilot's watch, the dual-time complication enables the tracking of multiple time zones, which is invaluable for pilots and travellers.
- Rotating bezel: often bi-directional or designed with a flight scale, necessary for tracking elapsed time or navigation calculations.
- Durability: the watches are typically made from highly durable materials, such as stainless steel, ceramic, titanium, and other high-strength alloys, to withstand significant wear and tear.
