A-15 Pilot
The A-15 Pilot Watch is inspired by the 1944 Military Issue A-15 “Elapsed Time Watch” and incorporates unique features of the original. A stainless steel case with distinctive black dial features two rotating inner discs operated by two crowns. The 2H crown rotates elapsed time while the 4H crown indicates dual time. The unique design of this timepiece, as well as its functional features, are made more authentically with a fine 21-jewel automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve. The subtle topstitched brown leather strap completes the look. Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating. Water resistance to 30 meters.

Picking up the A-15 for the first time, you’re immediately struck with a sense of quality due to its heft and weight. There’s a substantialness to the case that’s really pleasing – this one doesn’t disappear on the wrist. At 42mm in diameter and 14mm thick, the watch wears large, as a pilot’s watch should, but I didn’t find it uncomfortable, even though the case is a bit taller than what I’d normally prefer in a watch of this size.
