The Raymond Weil Freelancer Pilot Flyback Chronograph

Aviators and watchmakers have a lot in common. Both have an impeccable eye for detail, aim for complete precision and appreciate the value of master craftsmanship. It’s always exciting when these two worlds collide; this new limited-edition timepiece is no exception.

Expertly crafted by master Swiss watchmaker Raymond Weil, the Freelancer Pilot Flyback Chronograph is the perfect marriage of mechanical precision, vintage aesthetics and functional features. This special-edition timepiece was inspired by the Maison’s namesake, whose passion for watchmaking was matched only by his love of flying above the beautiful Swiss countryside.

Following the timeless design of traditional pilot watches, the timepiece features a green textured face, onion-shaped crown and brown calf-leather strap with rivets reminiscent of those found on aircraft. Inside the timepiece is an automatic flyback chronograph movement that allows for simultaneous reset and restart of the chronograph, perfect for pilots timing their flights.

A true heirloom-to-be, the Raymond Weil Freelancer Pilot Flyback Chronograph has been produced in a limited edition of 400, with just ten of these immaculate timepieces available in Australia. A perfect amalgamation of vintage aesthetic and modern performance, be sure to visit raymond-weil.com to explore this timepiece in further detail.
