Bespoke Build: Pilot x Airspeed Knots ✈️
This one’s for the aviation lovers and those who just appreciate a clean, functional build. We’ve brought back one of our classic custom Pilot-style watches - but with a fresh twist.
While the earlier versions of this project came on standard leather or NATO straps, this time we’ve taken it up a notch. This version features a custom leather strap designed specifically to match the case, making the whole build feel even more cohesive and intentional.
A Strap That Matches the Case
What sets this new build apart is the strap — and yeah, we’re a little obsessed with it. This isn’t your regular off-the-shelf strap. It’s made to fit this BR-style case perfectly, giving the watch a more refined and purpose-built look. Comfort, style, and fit? All checked.
The Dial: All About That Airspeed 🧭
The dial is where the magic really happens. A custom Airspeed Knots design brings in those pilot instrument vibes, and to take it even further, we used custom day and date wheels that were made to match the layout and feel of the dial. Small details, big difference.
The Case: Bold, Black, and Built Right
It’s fitted in a BR-style case, finished in full brushed black PVD — rugged and sharp without being flashy. This shape brings that cockpit-instrument look to life, and the flat sapphire crystal with blue AR coating keeps reflections down and clarity high.
Powered by NH36
Inside, it runs on the NH36 automatic movement — giving you day, date, and solid performance you can rely on. Simple, sturdy, and serviceable.
Final Thoughts
This one’s a proper upgrade to the previous versions. Same DNA, just cleaner, sharper, and more tailored — especially with that new strap bringing everything together. A true modern pilot build with custom details that count.
