FxrAndy Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 it does look very good and i am tepted but i wish you could make one with a central seconds with a modded ETA handwind, that would just be the best, i know the movements are more expencice and it would require a new dial but it would be uber cool, Keep up the good work mate i had a look through you web page the other day and was VERY impressed, with the prices also! alot of your watches could comand alot more than you ask for them!

chrgod Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I like it. It looks much more hardcore than the Big Pilot. Have always thought that date and lot of text are out of place on a "Pilot instrument". A second timezone will be a very nice addition of you plan a second version. That is useful for a pilot.
