Design
The watchmaker added 4 new models to their collection with the Pilot Automatic and the Pilot Big Date Flyback both available in stainless steel or black microblasted ceramic case. All four models feature a beautiful black dial with the stainless steel models while the ceramic models appeal rugged and stealthy in design. All models come with a black aesthetic with white markings on the subdial, hands, hour markers, and date. The Pilot Automatic looks simple but appealing and blends the modern design with charming looks.
The more expensive Piot Big Date Flyback Chronograph offers a more premium design with its stainless steel case with a pop of red, yellow green, and blue in the 30 min counter at 3’o clock. This release is more subtle and simple compared to the company’s other lineup of watches. The watch follows a more modern approach and feels more appealing while keeping the traditional feeling intact.
