Relive history with this exquisite World War II GMT Pilot's watch in vintage style lever-case. This sophisticated and exclusive timepiece, inspired by the military watches of 1940s, features a retro navy case and a stylish, classic pilot's dial. 

Features:

The Complication. The independently set 24 hour hand allows you to easily to track two time zones concurrently

The Crown. It isn't simply a talking point; the easy-to-use lever-down crown keeps the case water resistant up to 50m of depth (5ATM).  Invented by the Italian navy during WW2, this style of crown was the precursor to the modern screw-down crown

The Movement. Housed inside this Japanese powerhouse of a movement are 24 Jewels, 41 hours of power reserve, 21,600 bph, and a bi-directional automatic rotor. The immensely popular NH34 workhorse movement by Seiko. Famously reliable and sturdy, it became an instant classic that is favoured by thousands of microbrands globally. Does not require a yearly service (recommended every three or more). 

The Case. 316L Stainless Steel. Hardened and corrosion resistant, this stainless steel case has been polished to a beautiful mirror finish

The Crystal. Too often are retro styled watches ruined by a hyper-modern flat or double domed crystal. The choice to use a singularly domed flat-bottomed crystal completes the vintage feel of the watch.

The Strap. A luxurious and soft burgundy leather strap

The Precision. Buy with confidence knowing your watch movement has been regulated to +/- 5 seconds per day

Dimensions:

  • Lug to Lug: 48.5mm

The NH34 GMT movement series by Seiko is a reliable automatic movement with optional manual winding and second hacking. It supports date, day-date and GMT functions as showcased by the different styles of watches in my shop. Please note, while I may use Seiko parts in my custom watches, I am not affiliated with Seiko in anyway and these watches are not official Seiko releases. These are beautifully hand-crafted and originally designed modified Seikos using Seiko's official NH movement series.

All of our watches are delivered in a beautiful custom-made Provenance Watches leather travel case. It makes for a perfect gift.

Due to the vintage nature of the Seiko Originals, returns are considered on a case-by-case basis, as vintage items typically have a no returns policy.
