It measures at 42mm in diameter and 11mm in height, positioning it within the mid to upper range sized timepieces. The case is home to a tachymeter bidirectional rotating bezel that displays several readings that include the following measurements: fuel lbs, litres, lbs, kg, us gal, and oil lbs. A tachymeter is one of the defining features belonging to both the Omega Speedmaster and Rolex Daytona. It offers precision and reliability, of which are indispensable qualities belonging to an aviation watch. Also present on the case is a screw down crown that is present besides the 3 o'clock mark. The automatic movement is visible through the open case back of the watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe Dial:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a watch that's intention is to serve a practical purpose in the air, it comes as no surprise the dial simple, yet effective. Firstly, a stylised Swiss Army style font has been utilised for the raised Arabic numeral hour markers, each of which have been coated in lume. Similarly, the dauphine style hands offer peerless levels of legibility, as they are also luminescent. A date window replaces the 6 o'clock mark, likewise the Victorinox logo replaces the 12 o'clock marker. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe black dial features a subtle guilloche design that forms a loped flange ring around the edge of the dial. In turn this creates a level of depth, that is made more visible through the reheat which is also home to the circular slide rule. Upon closer inspection it becomes apparent that the red 24-hour scale is actually printed on the rear of the flat sapphire crystal, a high-contrast is created by the black background of the dial. Moreover, this makes the 24-hour scale float on top of the dial and bisect the date window, this bestows a certain uniqueness on to the watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe Strap:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the brown leather strap, comes in a typical NATO style, which is a pleasant reminder of the watches air borne roots. It has an authentic, rugged feel, that gives the watch a timeless appeal. A long leather strap is a quintessential trait of early pilot’s watches. It fastens easily using a standard buckle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe Functions:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the most impressive features of this timepiece is the Swiss ETA 2892 automatic movement. This offers an impressive 38-hour power reserve, it is a is a 21-jewel movement that is widely considered a more advanced and accurate movement than the original ETA. It prides itself on being the premium self-winding movement. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ctable width=\"662\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42mm case width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11mm case thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlide Rule\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22mm lug width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic movement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard Buckle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100m water resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSapphire Crystal Glass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrown Leather Strap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Dial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLume coated hands and indicies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwiss made\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChronograph\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24-hour display\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTachymeter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMens Watch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpen caseback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"ProductName\" class=\"cssWrapper620 cssMarginBottom10\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"ProdNameDiv\" class=\"ProdHalfWidthField CNEditPanel\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Brand: Victorinox\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVictorinox Swiss Army defines itself by the spirit of innovation and sustainability.
