Pilot watches, also known as aviator watches or aviation watches, are a specialized type of timepiece designed for use by pilots and aviation enthusiasts. These watches have a long and storied history dating back to the early days of aviation.
Pilot watches typically feature large dials with highly legible numerals and markers. This design allows pilots to quickly and easily read the time, even in challenging lighting conditions. The oversized crowns on traditional pieces are easy to manipulate, even when wearing flight gloves and are especially helpful for our hand-wound movements.
