The Aviator

This watch has an integrated flight computer*¹) that can be used for in flight calculations as well as flight planning calculations of the True airspeed, TAS for a virtually unlimited*²) amount of combinations of flight levels and indicated airspeed. With just one turn of the bezel.

How did this come about?

The designer is an experienced pilot himself. He holds multiple type ratings on Learjet and Cessna business jets, among others. He has accumulated over 3500 hours of flight time experience, almost all on jets. Never stopping to invent and design beautiful things, this time he wanted to combine the beautiful with the useful. After many months of experimenting and many trials, even a test flight wasn't shunned, he invented something truly remarkable:

a watch that will give True airspeed for any combination of flight level (altitude) and Indicated airspeed.

With the up rise and integration of electronic and satellite navigation, the calculation of True airspeed became less and less necessary, but every pilot has and needs a watch.

One thing will never change, we will always be flying through air and there for we will always have an Indicated airspeed and a True airspeed. One equally important as and useless without the other! It is this gap between practice and theory that made for this intriguing invention.

Based on the ICAO model of the International Standard Atmosphere ( ISA ), this watch will approximate the True airspeed for every combination of Indicated airspeed and flight level possible*²), within 5 knots. This margin is due to physical limitations of the size of the watch and human error.

Not only is its use made for the aviation industry, its appearance has everything to do with aviation as well.

From the obvious, the beautifully engraved fan blades in the dial and the overall look simulating a jet engine, to the less obvious, the use of the materials.
