The “GMT-Master II” is an updated version of the “GMT-Master” model introduced in 1954, which was extremely popular among commercial airliner pilots at the time because of its GMT function, which showed the time in two cities simultaneously. 24-hour hands and a two-color rotating bezel indicate the time in a second time zone. The light, bi-directional, two-color bezel is finished in one piece and is extremely scratch and corrosion resistant. The Chromalight display provides excellent legibility in all conditions, even in the dark, making it useful in a variety of situations.

Pilot’s Watch Recommended Model 7: “ROLEX Air King

Created in 1940 with the concept of “paying homage to the aviation industry,” the “Air-King” may not be strictly speaking appropriate to be included in the pilot’s watch category, but we dare to pick it up as an attractive model known for having the oldest pet name (nickname) among the current Rolex models. Pick it up. The Air King is the oldest Rolex watch in the current collection to have a pet name that has become an official model name, with the emphasis on the 3, 6, and 9, The Air-King’s magnetic shield, double-enclosed crown, and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal windshield also make it a very robust and magnetic-resistant watch.
