AIRACOBRA CHRONO
С самого начала Второй мировой войны, самолеты оказывали поддержку с неба и часто именно их действия решали исход военных операций. Одним из лучших примеров такого воздушного бойца является истребитель Aircobrа, основным преимуществом которого было ведение эффективного боя по земле, что весьма ценно для пехоты. Во время Второй мировой войны, часы уже стали важной частью необходимого обмундированая. Создав модель Aircobrа наши разработчики приложили все усилия, чтобы передать дух этого важного периода в самолетостроении и в часовом мастерстве. Развиваясь одновременно часы и самолеты были неразрывно связаны друг с другом. Классический циферблат напоминает приборную панель кабины, а люминесцентные стрелки и цифры позволяют обеспечить исключительную четкость, даже в самых худших условиях видимости. Авиатор представляет несколько вариантов модели, каждая из которых своим дизайном походит на кабину самолета того времени. В одной из моделей особое расположение внешнего минутной шкалы имеет подобие часов на приборной доске 40х годов. В другом варианте модели необычный дизайн отображения даты напоминает высотомер, весьма важный для любого пилота прибор. Модель продумана и разработана так, что каждая деталь дизайна будет напоминать вам о том времени, когда мужественные пилоты истребителя Aircobra взмывали в синюю высоту. -
MIG 29 COCKPIT CHRONO
Создание модели часов МиГ-29 cockpit CHRONO имеет не совсем обычное начало. Несмотря на то, что дизайнер только прибыл на базу “Стрижей” после длительного перелета и разницы часовых поясов, он не мог ждать и сразу отправился к самолету. Как только он вошел в кабину MIG-29, он уже знал, какой будет эта модель. Команда Авиатора поставила себе задачу изготовить особенную модель, многофункциональную и вместе с тем внешне сильно напоминающую часы на приборной панели самолета. Дизайн корпуса и циферблата едва ли отличишь от оригинального прибора. Отменный механизм хронографа ADD и специальная функция SPLIT позволяют максимально точно производить измерения во время полета. Дополнительная головка, расположенная слева, служит не просто для визуальной симметричности, но также вращает внутреннее кольцо, что в сочетании с вращением внешнего, переводит показатель земной скорости в воздушную. В этой модели Авиатор предлагает воспользоваться функцией, позволяющей вести учет времени взлета и напоминать о заранее заданных временных интервалах. Искусно выполненный строгий облик авиационного прибора вкупе с продуманной функциональностью дает возможность владельцу почувствовать себя настоящим пилотом, обладающим превосходным навигационным инструментом для верной ориентации на жизненном пути на земле и в небе.

AIRACOBRA
From the start of the Second World War, aircrafts were crucial to the success of army operations, supporting troops from the sky. The Airacobra was one of the best fighters of its time, with especially effective ground attack capabilities, making it a valuable addition to the infantry. During the Second World War, aviators began receiving watches as part of the indispensable equipment for missions.
The Airacobra model demonstrates the inseparable link between aviation and watches. Its dial retains the classic cockpit-style design with luminescent hands and displays, providing outstanding legibility, even in the worst visibility conditions. The model line contains different variations, with features that resemble the cockpit instruments of the time.
The unusual division into the external chapter ring and inner hour, or minute circuit, makes the Airacobra look like a deck watch of the 1940s. The model variant, with the exceptional date display design, resembles an altimeter, the essential pilot’s instrument. All these characteristics, along with varied dial colours are reminiscent of the time when courageous aviators flew the Airacobra fighter. -
BRISTOL
The Bristol Fighter first entered service in 1917 and quickly established itself as a useful and reliable fighting machine. Despite being a two-seater, it proved to be an agile plane that was able to hold its own against opposing single-seat fighters.
The Bristol watch honours this elegant British aircraft and the first wristwatches worn by pilots in the 1920s. It features a distinctive large pocket watch style case with unusual lugs to give the impression of the early wristwatches. The classical instrumental design of the dial, and the vintage brown strap originally attached to the case are reminiscent of the Bristol’s cockpit, rimmed with padded brown leather. Like the Bristol Fighter, this watch is equipped with the best engine, the Automatic ETA movement, to ensure excellent performance. The permanent small seconds hand at “6 o’clock” indicates to aviators that the watch is working properly. All these features resemble the elegance and success of the Bristol Fighter. -
DOUGLAS
The Douglas model line pays homage to the famous American passenger aircraft. It was the Douglas DC-3, which revolutionized air transport in the 1930s and 1940s and was universally recognized as the greatest airplane of its time.
Inspired by the modernity and streamlined elegance of the Douglas airplane, Aviator created the model that combines art-deco style with subtle echoes of the pocket watch design. The classical round case, elegant hands and numerals: all these attributes are the result of the graceful evolution of pocket watches. With its curved wire lugs, the watch fits any wrist perfectly.
Powered by an automatic ETA movement, it produces a delicate ticking sound that would calm even the most anxious passenger. The Douglas model is available in various dial colours, providing gentlemen with a wide choice of essential suit accessories. This watch is the perfect item, to transport you back to the era of early civil aviation, making you feel like a pilot or a wealthy passenger of a DC-3 transcontinental flight. -
KINGCOBRA
The Kingcobra fighter is a perfect successor of the Airacobra with updated functionality called on to improve the performance. Developed in 1943 it immediately proved a successful aircraft winning many fierce battles of the sky during WWII. Like the aircraft, the Kingcobra watch collection serves as a perfect addition to its predecessor, the Airacobra model, introducing new features such as indication of day in a separate aperture and a 24-hour scale providing pilots an opportunity to distinguish day and night time in extraordinary military conditions.

MIG 21 FISHBED
The MIG-21 was successful continuation of supersonic jets contributing to the new 2nd generation technology to the world of aircrafts. This fighter with excellent combat capabilities and unusual delta-wing design became one of the most popular aircrafts in the world adopted in more than 65 countries since its entrance to the service in 1959. In addition, the MIG-21 is renowned for many pilots attaining ace status while flying this amazing fighter.

MIG 29 GMT
Inspired by the Fulcrum plane’s aerodynamics, Aviator created a watch with a case that is a direct reference to the shape of the Fulcrum’s fuselage. The black-and-white tachymeter ring encircling the dial enables the wearer to measure the distance to target, including the conversion of time intervals to speed. This watch also keeps track of the various time zones.
The dial shows the current local time, but the second time zone indicator designed as an altimeter-like instrument can be adjusted to any time zone entered. Another feature of the dial is that it is produced from extremely durable material, such as black or carbon fibre, which gives the wearer confidence in the most severe conditions. -
MIG-25 FOXBAT
MIG-25 Foxbat is the world’s fastest fighter ever made. After the 1970s, with its 29 absolute world records, the MIG-25 caused numerous problems for its competitors and remained the leader of the sky, up until the 1980s. Foxbat’s still unbeaten world records for the fastest speed and highest altitude ever reached have inspired Aviator to introduce a watch named after this plane. Typical colours, such as black, green, beige and grey, highlight the model’s military-style design. The chapter ring leaning on the Mach-meter is a reminder of the Foxbat’s extremely high speed, which exceeded the speed of the sound by three times. Retaining the simple dial design with striking colour contrasts and luminescent materials, the watch provides excellent legibility by day and night. Additionally, the small second indicator at “6 o’clock” resembles an aircraft’s attitude instrument, contributing to the cockpit-style look of the watch. The model is available with textile bracelets reminiscent of the extremely durable belts used by military pilots. Everything about this watch makes its wearers feel as if they are seated in the cockpit of a MIG-25.
