Thread: best bang for the buck pilot watch..

I had looked for this particular pilot watch for quite a while until I found a seller in Canada about two weeks ago. It has brown dial (quite rare on pilot watches), gold hands (yes..I love gold hands), and a dark finish titanium case; the combination is just a winner in my book. Also, a more wearable 44mm cash. Paid less than $600 for the set (comes with two straps), can't complaint at all!! The quality is just as good as some $2000 watch. A great beater for summer











Lume shot..

Very nice very clean. Ti and gold go great. Esprecially Ti and RG. Nice everyday watch. Congrats!

Is it a 17j Unitas? Not sure Davido will approve of such a low brow watch for you.

love it! im looking for something like this too.

yup Unita 17j.

Hey i can play this game too. My Archimede w/ pvd case runs great. i know a date is not traditional for pilots but i need one. jason i like the sterile look of yours...the word Archimede takes up a lot of retail space but the watch is made by Ickler who makes cases for many of the mid-high end German watchmakers. With the weak euro this runs around $520.

C'mon Jason. No details on the brand and where to get one?!? You have exclusivity on your Pre-V's but I'm not gonna let you get away with it on this watch. Lol. I've been looking for a pilot and lovin this one. I'm typing from my iPhone and not all of your pics are showing up. Exhibition back? Almost bought the new Hamilton, but don't really care for the crown guards on a pilot style watch. Congrats on your new find although it does have to feel like your slummin it a bit

details!!!

Not sure if you've mentioned this already... but is this a Steinhart? If so, they truly are the best bang for your buck if you ask me. Great watches at great prices.

Sorry bro!

Here is the detail, Limited Edition Sonderedition 2009 / 111 Stück weltweit - Steinhart Watches

It's no longer available. Sold out in 2009. That's why I had looked for it for quite a while. It does pop up for sale on TZ every once in a while. I will pay attention to it. If I see one for sale, I will let you know.
