In 2005, we were the first manufacturer in the world to create a pilot's watch with a hand-wound movement and a small second at six o'clock. We were the first manufacturer to also use Super-LumiNova in the color "Old Radium". There was nothing like that on the market back then. We sent genuine, aged Radium Luminova to the company TRITEC in Switzerland, with the request that we mix Super-LumiNova in exactly this colour. The result was a unique pilot's watch whose design is one of the most well-known pilot's watches in the world today and is imitated by almost every other manufacturer.
After we launched the Pilot Anniversary models with 43 and 45 mm case diameters a few years ago for our 10th anniversary, the 40 mm version is finally coming for our 15th anniversary.
