    Mk11 - designed by the RAF, made by IWC and Jaeger-LeCoultre. The archetypal British pilots’ watch, and a primary influence on watch design in general.

    I don't have many purist Type A or B style watches at the moment. Several Airmen have passed through my hands. These are what I have right now:





    This one will probably end up back with me, as I repaired it for my dad (who was a pilot) but he passed away earlier this year.

    Too many watches, not enough wrists.
