Aircraft-Inspired Watches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The MS1 Watch is a Unique Take on Military-Inspired Timepieces

— February 12, 2018 — Fashion
Drawing inspiration from the inside of military cockpits, the MS1 watch is a beautiful design that is reminiscent of vintage military timepieces. The body of the MS1 watch is built from forged stainless steel and features a thin bezel, keeping a rugged but refined look. The watch is 42mm in diameter and 10mm in height. The face of the watch is made of sapphire glass, making the face completely scratch-resistant. NATO style straps keep the watch attached to a user's wrist and are comprised of ballistic nylon and stainless steel.

Drawing from its military inspiration, the MS1 watch comes packaged in a rustic wooden military crate. Accompanying the watch is a uniquely embossed dog tag. The dog tag features the production run/series, the year of production and the watch number. The dog tag serves as a unique serial to the watch and proves its authenticity and limited nature.
