AVIATOR DOUGLAS DAY DATE MECA 41 Automatic Watch V.3.36.8.290.4

Inspired by the radial engine, the Douglas Day Date Meca 41

The Douglas Day-Date is a tribute to the Douglas DC-3. In the 1930s, the Douglas DC-3 offered the ultimate in luxury air travel, boasting the finest amenities and services. It became extremely popular among the elite, traveling the globe and contributing to the Golden Age of aviation.

The Douglas Day-Date, which was born from the Douglas DC-3, now has a double-sided skeleton series.

The 3D patterned face features an elegant day-date window for easy reading, beautifully blending with the Art Deco design reminiscent of the interior of a Douglas DC-3 aircraft.

The minimalist design and streamlined shapes and curves create a beautiful case.

The round case makes it appear as if the radial engine of a Douglas aircraft is housed within the watch, and the watch itself represents the engine itself.

It has an extremely complex structure in order to represent a radial engine as a clock.

It is made up of about nine parts before it reaches the movement.

You can check the time not only in bright places but also in dark places. The hands, indexes and hands are coated with luminous paint, which stores light in bright places and emits a green glow in dark places.

The case diameter is approximately 41.2mm. It is a size that suits the average wrist circumference of Japanese men (16cm). The protruding lugs and rounded steps create an elegant case design.

Its elegant appearance goes very well with a suit, but of course, its clean design is not too quirky, so it can also be paired with other items.

It weighs approximately 87g. Not only the front but also the back of the watch is see-through, allowing you to see the internal movement (AV-1000 Aviator automatic movement).

This movement is based on the Swiss movement SERITA SW240-2 and incorporates advanced technology.

Special spring bars on the strap allow you to change the strap with just your fingers, no tools required.

This is a useful feature to have so you can enjoy fashion in a casual and relaxed manner.

The belt is a folding type, and there is no need to thread a pin through the hole when putting it on, so it is less likely to damage the belt. This buckle is popular because it is less likely to damage the belt and is easy to put on and take off.

This model is made of stainless steel (316L) with bronze PVD coating.

The distinctive feature of bronze material is its changeable appearance.

At first, it shines brightly, reflecting light, but as time passes, it oxidizes, the color deepens, and it creates a calm atmosphere.

A familiar example is the 10 yen coin.

Bronze is gaining attention as a material whose color deepens with use, making it a material that people grow to love even more .

The calendar showing the day of the week is located at 12 o'clock and the calendar showing the date is located at 6 o'clock. This watch is equipped with convenient functions for everyday use.

It also features the Incabloc system, which protects the movement from shocks.

The Aviator movement, a pilot's watch, is equipped with the Incabloc® anti-shock system, which protects against any shock and maintains the highest level of performance.
