Plenty of pilot spirit with this one. Anti-reflection coating is the only missing thing. Accuracy is great and visibility is excellent. Somehow rather exclusive too. Best, E. ...

Yes I agree, it is well balanced and easy to read! It does look slightly smaller than 42. Maybe because of its black colour and the rather thick case. Best, E.

What does the second logo at 6 o’clock signify?

It is the insignia of a military pilot in the French Air Force. I like the piece too, a nice tool watch!

That’s why I thought it might be from another Air Force…

42mm, and rather thick!

Much to love with that dial!
