After the very successful launch of the ARCHIMEDE 1950’s family in November 2014 with the ‘1950-1’, the series continues with the ‘1950-2’, a tribute to the 60 year old watch design. The new model features a curved dial with hand-applied indexes and numerals – typical for 1950’s watches. The new Ickler case can be fitted with either a historically authentic Plexi – or a “modern” Sapphire – crystal in the same design. The newly developed crown was designed according the distinctively flat watch crowns of the 1950’s. Despite its slim appearance the crown can be well wound and also offers a water resistance of 3 atm. The 1950-2 is available for order in the ARCHIMEDE OnlineShopfrom €680 including VAT (€571,43 w/o VAT).

Last summer we introduced the ARCHIMEDE Pilot 42 GMT, the ideal companion for pilots, frequent fliers, businesspeople and world travelers.

This watch has an extra, red hand that allows wearers to easily tell the time in a second time zone. This function is perfect for keeping an eye on the time in your home time zone, watching foreign financial markets, or even those in long-distance relationships that traverse time zones!

Since we began offering the Pilot 42 A and 42 H with thermally-blued steel hands, we have had a host of inquiries about whether we can make similar blued hands for the Pilot GMT.

We are now delighted to announce that our popular Pilot GMT watch is now available with our in-house fabricated, thermally-blued steel hands.

The Pilot GMT with blued-steel watch hands is available in the ARCHIMEDE Online Shop starting from 1,160.00 EUR (974.79 EUR excluding VAT).

ARCHIMEDE presents the very special, brand-new Pilot Chronograph Tricompax. A remarkable, quite rarely seen timepiece among Pilot watches. The magnificent ETA 7750 Top movement is equipped with Tricompax module, Glucydur balance, Nivarox hairspring, noble decoration along with blued screws and the special ARCHIMEDE rotor. Tricompax refers to the sub dial layout at 3, 6 and 9. The symmetrical arrangement of the sub dials for minutes, hours and running seconds gives a very balanced appearance. The heat blued steel hands of the Flieger Chronograph are manufactured by ICKLER. Thus, it is the first pilot watch from ARCHIMEDE, which is delivered as a standard version with heat blued steel hands.

The solid crafted three-piece 42 mm ICKLER case with A/R coated sapphire crystal is made from finely brushed stainless steel or black PVD finished and has a thickness of 13,6 mm. The catchy Pilot crown and the large pushers make using this watch a pleasure. The date is discreetly shown at six o’clock.
