Pilot watches enjoy a wide popularity and not only because of the reduced dial and the large hands, that ensure maximum readability. Almost all of today's pilot watches are based on the design of the so-called observer watches that were part of the equipment of every navigation officer belonging to a German Air Force crew during World War II. The Nav.B-Uhr 47 Automatik A-Muster Premium , is STEINHART's modern interpretation of this classic design. Compared to the regular Nav.B-Uhr in our collection its case is 2,2mm thinner, made of 316L stainless steel, finely brushed, as is the exhibition case back. This allows for a detailed view of the Swiss automatic movement grade élaboré premium. This movement offers not only impressive technical values and a very lavish decoration, it also features our gold, skeletonized rotor. While technology and material of the STEINHART Nav.B-Uhr 47 Automatik A-Muster Premium, are of present date, the design of the crown, as well as the dial and hands, which are generously coated with luminescent paint and protected by a domed and double-AR-coated sapphire crystal, quotes history in an authentic way. More can hardly be expected of a pilot's watch. A must-have for every pilot watch enthusiast !
