Press release, February 2015

AIRMAN AIRFIGHTER – NOW ALSO AVAILABLE IN CAMOUFLAGE DESIGN

The long-established watchmaker Glycine, which has a tradition of specializing in bespoke watches for pilots and divers, took the market by surprise in 2014 with a genuine novelty by the name of the Airman AIRFIGHTER.

This year Glycine has taken it to the next level and dressed the dynamic timepiece in a fetching camouflage suit. This design was not chosen at random, however, but was born of Glycine's long history of collaboration with the armed forces going way back to the last century.

The Airman AIRFIGHTER is a genuine pilot's watch with three individual time zones. The second time zone sits elegantly on the luminous internal bezel with a dynamic GMT hand with white triangle pointer indicating the time in the 24-hour zone. The hand can be easily operated and moved by turning the central crown. The third time zone is operated by the Airman's signature 24-hour rotating bezel by simply turning the bezel after first releasing the locking crown at the 4H position

The stage for the perfect orchestration of the three time zones is set by the precision-crafted dial which is in total harmony with the perfectly coordinated hands. A sapphire glass with anti-reflective scratch-resistant coating on both sides protects the watch, keeping it in optimum condition for precision readings in all three time zones.

The watch is set in an imposing 46mm case made with painstaking attention to detail and a chronograph mechanism operated with a revolutionary push-piece, ideally situated at the 9H position with the thumb of the right hand. The final flourish comes in the comfortable high-quality strap in camouflage design which can also be supplied on request with a folding clasp.

The Airman AIRFIGHTER is kept in time by a highly acclaimed GL 754-calibre automatic movement (ETA specification).
