Since the dawn of time, humans have dreamt of flying. The history of powered and controlled
aviation, which began in the early 1900s, is inseparably connected to that of wristwatches. As aviators
experienced difficulties checking their pocket watches to time their performance during flights, they
started to look for a solution.
This resulted in the development of mens wristwatches, which allowed aviators to keep both hands
on the controls. From then on, wristwatches evolved from robust to sophisticated designs, along with
the progression of aircrafts from gliders to supersonic planes.The brand Aviator pays tribute to the
history of aviation, embodying watches within this amazing story. Each family of watches represents
a different era in the development of aviation. The Vintage family is dedicated to the Pioneer Era and
Golden Age of aviation. It includes the evolution from pocket watch style wristwatches to classical
pilot watches of the Second World War. Inspired by the history of MIG aircrafts, Aviator created a family
of watches named after these legendary fighter planes. The Professional special range of watches
was built to meet the most rigorous requirements of contemporary aviators.
ORIGINS
It is not a coincidence that the brand Aviator was created in Russia, a country, which historically is
renowned for its aviation feats and courageous pilots. The Brands mission is to build exceptional
watches that not only serve exceptionally, those who conquer the skies, but all those who support
them from the ground. Since the year 2000, Aviator has provided watches to people of the most
extreme professions, such as military, rescuers and pilots, as well as to watch and aviation lovers,
building its excellentreputation for more than a decade in Europe, America and Asia. Starting from
2006 Aviator has been the official timekeeper of the Russian aerobatic team Swifts, pilots of which
fly the legendary MIG-29 fighters.
THE BIRTH OF THE BRAND
Since 2011 Aviator watches have been developed and manufactured in Switzerlands Canton of Jura
home of the watchmaking industry. This location facilitates collaboration with the highest quality
suppliers enabling us to pursue our philosophy: to build reliable watches meeting the rigorous
standards of time instruments, whilst combining original aviation designs. In the cultural heart of the
Jura, in the town of Porrentruy, our manufacture brings together all the brands watchmaking
operations, including research and development, movement modification, assembly of components,
and rigorous multi-level quality tests. Every Aviator watch combines the professional skills
and experience of watchmakers, with the sincere passion for aviation and the art of timepieces.

prove the performance. Developed in 1943 it immediately proved a successful aircra winning many erce
bales of the sky during WWII. Like the aircra, the Kingcobra watch colleion serves as a perfe addition
to its predecessor, the Airacobra model, introducing new features such as indication of day in a separate

nary military conditions.
Keeping a military-yle design and inrumental feel of dial the colleion features a variety of new co-
lours with mae anthracite tones. Contraing shades of numerals and hands coated with SuperLuminova
material give the dial excellent readability qualities in the poore visibility conditions. In addition, AVIATOR
designers have introduced an option with modied date window, which with its vertically arranged dates
resembles the altimeter of aircras dashboard.
Available in dierent colour variations, with leather rap or ainless eel bracelet, this urdy watch with
oversized ainless eel case, which is water-resiant to 10 ATM and ed with sapphire cryal, providesa perfe choice for lovers of classical military-yled pilot watches.
