Praesto Aviator II (mockup)

Ever since the release of our Aviator I, surprisingly we received lots of requests for Praesto Aviator II using Seagull ST1901 chronograph (hand winding), which is proven/well-known for its robustness / reliability. We did some mockup designs. Case would be same as Aviator I, except the movement, and sapphire crystal would be domed.



Specification:

- 316L steel case, 44m
- Movement: Seagull ST 1901 chronograph
- Lug width 24mm
- Domed sapphire crystal, with double AR coating
- Screw-down crown and pushers
- 20 ATM W/R

Release date: Unknown

Seagull ST1901 chronograph (hand winding)






What do you say? Any comments would be appreciated!

The Modern Fliegeruhr – Aviator is released and ready to ship. We sent out individual emails and Paypal invoices to those of you who have pre-ordered one or two versions of the Aviator, but have not heard back. Some emails even bounced back because the recipient eamil address no longer exists or its inbox has reached maxiumum size of storage. Therefore, we wondered if you have changed to use another email address more frequently than the one used to pre-order, or the emails we sent got trapped / deleted in the spam folder, or even got lost during transmission. Please kindly check your spam folder or your email filtering system.

To speed up processes, if you're still interested in the watch, we ask that please kindly email to sales1 at praestowatch.com to re-confirm your order.
