Junkers First Atlantic Flight East-West men's watch

Wrist Watch

The name of the brilliant engineer Hugo Junkers is associated all over the world with household gas equipment and aviation equipment. However Junkers is also a German watch brand, created in 1997 specifically for fans of the history of flying. So, for example, the collection 1st Atlantic Flight East-West dedicated to the first transatlantic flight from Europe to North America in 1928.

The very first brave airplane flies along the white or black field of the dial. Next to it is a colored inscription in German: "Erster Atlantikflug Ost-West", repeating the name of the entire collection.

The engraving on the dials is made in the style corrugated sheet - such corrugated steel sheets once served as the skin of airplanes.

At the mark of "3 o'clock" is located date aperture and a decorative screw, and the triangular logo of the company took the free space at the 6 o'clock position.

Large and contrasting Arabic numerals to indicate hours are duplicated by small markings to indicate minutes and seconds.

On the white dial, the indication is carried out using blue arrows, and on black - using white fluorescent shooter.

Convex mineral glass reinforces the feeling that you have a real vintage pilot's watch in front of you.

And, of course, it should be noted steel square body - stylish, powerful, setting the mood for the whole image. Case dimensions are ideal for a standard male wrist: 42x42mm, thickness - 11mm.

The most important: the watch is mechanical, self-winding, inside is reliable Japanese caliber Miyota 821A - modified modification of the previous version. Its decoration can be admired through transparent back cover. Junkers is one of the rare European brands that produce really high quality mechanics at affordable prices.
