The Douglas Bader Spitfire 70th Anniversary Men’s Chronograph Watch
There's no doubt about the credentials of the Supermarine Spitfire. It was a hero's fighter plane. The saviour of the skies.
When the Spitfire first entered service with 19 Squadron, back in 1938, its status as an elite attack aircraft was immediately affirmed as enemy squadrons were torn from the sky, at the mercy of fearless British pilots. Chief among the fighter aces was Group Captain Douglas Bader, and today you can honour both these legends with a powerful new gentlemen's timepiece: the RAF Spitfire 70th Anniversary Chronograph.
Inspired by the watches worn by World War 2 pilots like Douglas Bader, the RAF Spitfire 70th Anniversary Chronograph is a first-of-a-kind commemorative edition that will make a bold statement of style on your wrist. Boasting three individual chronograph dials – plus sleek hour and minute hands – the handsome black face features a raised official RAF logo and roundel, plus an authentic RAF Spitfire motif. 22-carat gold plating adds a luxurious touch to the crown and chronograph buttons, delivering a striking contrast to the brushed and polished strap and casing. And on the reverse of the watch, expert engraving alludes to the Spitfire's 70th anniversary of service and showcases Douglas Bader's sought-after signature in the centre.
