Watches to wear with your flight jackets...

[marck527]

My go to watch with my A2 is definitely the Hamilton Pilot Pioneer

 

[stanier]

I have one of those too. Works perfectly and looks great. I would prefer a shiny finish but I can live with it. And for £60 you can't go wrong.

$60 (plus shipping) A-11 (ish) from the Bay. Maker based in the UK. Just arrived - no idea how long it will last but first impressions are REALLY nice. Clean, well made, wrist band is on the Cheap(er) side but that's OK for now. I quite like it actually. its nice to wear a watch that is so small and light that you don't really feel it!

Sorry about the blurry back pic

I like their A17A as well

Great ! I really like the reissue of this chrono. The photos are wonderful
Is it the 39 mm version ?

 

[Kermit3D]

Here's a cousin of your Hanhart : my Tutima “1941 flieger chronograph”.

 

[coolhandluke]

These photos are nearly two weeks old, but I finally found the right strap for the '55 Tissot Visodate. After mostly using NATO's and a handful of two piece straps, Veblenist added this Corsica strap to their website. It has a nice, vintage leather appearance right out of the box. Perfect for a 70 year old timepiece.

Pictures are really nice and it's a nice watch too. Not a big fan of the "oyster" bracelet with this, I prefer leather for these Chronographs.

Nice watch and beautiful strap ! As always, Lucas, everything is very stylish

 

[Jeronimo Watchmaker]

Skvělé! Opravdu se mi líbí reedice tohoto chrono. Fotky jsou nádherné
Je to verze 39 mm?

Yes, it is 39 mm

Tady je bratranec vašeho Hanharta: můj Tutima “1941 letecký chronograf”.

Pane, to jsou velmi cenné hodinky. Krásný.

 

[Jeronimo Watchmaker]

Obrázky jsou opravdu pěkné a jsou to také pěkné hodinky. Nejsem velký fanoušek náramku "ústřice", u těchto Chronografů preferuji kůži.

Ocelový náramek je praktičtější. Na koženém řemínku se v létě zpotíte a řemínek se poškodí.
