Project O Pilot 1 Chronograph

This new chapter reflects the three qualifiers that symbolize the brand: Innovation - Concept - Design.

We are pleased to present the second watchmaking chapter of Project O — the Pilot 1 Chronograph, a unique watch designed for pilots.

Its unique design offers a direct viewing angle of the dial by shifting it’s position 90 ° on the wrist.

The watch’s case is made of « Carbon Fusion O » to offer a rigid and sturdy yet light and antimagnetic case, while also allowing the chronograph buttons that are an integral part of the case, to maintain flexibility on their fixed axis.

Carbon Fusion O Composite enriched with graphene nanotubes. A material developed in-house by our R&D department as well as its dedicated additive manufacturing equipment.
