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.
Accept no substitute for this substitute.
Tourby pilot, 200m WR and crazy good finishing.

I've had 3 . . . waiting for the bronze IWC Spitfire to be available though
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.

Kemmner:
Laco 45
Laco42:
This one counts surely:
It's a Steinhart Jubiläumsuhr JG 74 Ltd (can't find a front pic just now , but it's a typical A type dial
I've probably got some more somewhere, these were just picked from my IWL library
