    Aviator presents Professional, a collection inspired by aviation and, most importantly, approved by professionals around the world after being put through its paces in the most extreme conditions. This ruthless testing has earned the collection a place on the instrument panel of the Russian MiG-29 "Fulcrum" jet fighter. Such a responsibility dictates the chronograph's layout as well as a design intended to enhance functionality. Hourmarkers and hands are luminescent, counters are read at a glance, and a large red pusher at 2 o'clock starts and stops the chrono: clearly, no room for error. Black from head to toe, Professional is focused on functions, not distracted by colour. This is a professional-grade chronograph at an attractive price that will seduce fans of masculine watches. Including those with their feet on the ground!
    Movement Automatic, ETA 7750
    Functions Hours, minutes, seconds, day, date and chronograph
    Case Stainless steel with black PVD treatment
    Anti-reflective sapphire crystal
    Back engraved with four MiG-29 jet fighters
    Red start/stop pusher at 2 o'clock
    Water-resistant to 50 m / 5 ATM
    Dial Black
    Luminescent hands and hourmarkers
    12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, 30-minute counter at 12 o'clock, small seconds at 9 o'clock
    Day and date windows at 3 o'clock
    Bracelet/Strap Black leather strap and steel buckle with black PVD treatment or steel bracelet with black PVD treatment and folding clasp

    According to Swisstime.ch anywhere from $1000-$1999. I have done searches for distributors as I am interested in purchasing this to add to my collection however I haven't found one yet. Anyone know where I can get one?

    Of the 7yrs I flew as a commercial pilot with passengers/medivac/corporate charters, the ONLY function I ever needed and used in a watch was a GMT function. It was needed for weather and log times for out/off and on/in times. Pilot watches with everything plus an E6B function wheel are rarely useful. With FMS in the cockpit, its ZULU that you always need with you.

    "This ruthless testing has earned the collection a place on the instrument panel of the Russian MiG-29 "Fulcrum" jet fighter."

    What specifically does this mean? One of these watches is actually on the panel of each MIG-29? Or is this just fake marketing hoopla?

    Thanks!

    It would be really nice to see the 12 o'clock number.
