Pilots Are Inspiration For Watch Design

Posted: 8/5/2010

The new Khaki Pilot combines elegance and a masculine sense of style with a strong aeronautical heritage.

(NAPSI) - A new watch collection that combines a masculine sense of style and a strong aeronautical heritage is taking off.

Designed in collaboration with aerobatic pilot Nicolas Ivanoff--known as the "Quick Corsican"--the latest line from Hamilton Watches demonstrates a "relevant functionality" that is often appreciated by aviators.

Ivanoff, the official ambassador for the brand, is competing in this year's Red Bull Air Race series, with a Hamilton-branded Extra 300 SP plane as his ride.

Called the Khaki Pilot, the new watch combines style, reliability and a heritage of proven performance both on the ground or in the air and sea. Designed for the eyes in the sky, the watch features a unique dial with an easily readable minute track surrounding a subdial of hour markers.

The style is also steeped in a bit of nostalgia, taking its cue from the action-packed lifestyles of early aviators. The wristband is offered in genuine brown leather or in a stainless steel bracelet with a sapphire crystal integrating Super-LumiNova technology.
