Ticino 47mm Pilot Watch Gold Cased 2008 Series
We are pleased to offer this finely crafted oversized pilot watch from Ticino. Keeping in line with the original B-uhr observers watch, which were made for WWII Luftwaffe of the 1940's, Ticino decided to make a scaled back version from the originals that weighed in at 55mm to a more wearable 47mm. In doing so they decided to use a dependable 17-jewel hand wind movement fully finished and looking very attractive though the clear case back.
As we first held this watch, we could tell that the case construction was done by true professionals. We also noticed it to be very solid with a clean matte finish in yellow gold with nice contours through the lugs.
In addition, a polished gold two-tier bezel is something we think gave this a more unique look. The case also has a screw-down case back to help aid in water protection. It boasts a large oversized crown 10mm wide by 5mm high with machined lines in 316L polished stainless steel add to true classic styling.
Even though this watch is very large, Ticino really thought out the design well to make this piece stylish but not obtrusive on the wrist.
If your in the market for a pilot style watch, this is definitely one to consider both for quality and price. We have yet to find anything similar.
