Gift set with a classic Pilot Watch

 

A few signs will tell you that this kit will work best as a gift for him:

  • He thinks Rolexes are overrated (too common)
  • He loves Top Gun
  • He enjoys all things EDCs, such as blades, flashlights, and all things military such as military watches on fabric straps

Then you know you've arrived at the right kit. This is a 40mm Pilot Watch kit with a field/military watch design language. Its design references a classic military watch back in the world war era - Mark XI Pilot watch created specifically for the British Royal Airforce.
