VICTORINOX Airboss Mechanical Black
With aviation inspiration on board, three new timepieces from Victorinox Swiss Army command authority. Awakening the inner pilot in the wearer, they bring topnotch functionality, day and night. Their refined appearance lands trust due to easily legible white and red detail against a tarmac black background. Named after an aircraft carrier’s flight deck controller, the Swiss made Airboss Mechanical timepieces keep time and operations on the move with pinpoint accuracy. Modern, sandblasted PVD in dark matt, making a collection debut, is the trio’s fil rouge. This marks a double family first by combining a metal case with a bracelet in exactly the same material and finish.
A three-hand model and two chronographs make up the series. Their common language is clarity. The first wristwatches for pilots in the early twentieth century had to fulfill their functions at all times, in all weathers and even when operated by a gloved hand. Reliability and readability shape the design of today’s Airboss Mechanical Black Editions via touches ranging from a Victorinox red second hand and printed military time under the glass, to luminescent hands and numerals for nightime performance. Functionality is easily and quickly accessed via strategically placed buttons and pushers.
The Airboss Mach 9 Black Edition fuses aviation history with everday calculation needs by means of a practical circular slide rule. Converting liters into gallons or kilometers into miles becomes a walk in the park. This model also integrates convenient stop-thumb operation thanks to 180° movement rotation. The timelessly technical statement made by the Victorinox Airboss Mechanical Black Editions gains visual volume via meticulous attention to detail. The dial’s diamond-cut surface brings depth to the front; an exhibition case back offers a window on precision. Hand signals always have the last word on the flight deck.
