Eaglemoss 1960s Chinese Pilot Style Quartz Watch (Issue 30)
Brand-new commercial outdoor and tactical gear, direct from trusted manufacturers.
KEY FEATURES
This Eaglemoss 1960s Chinese Pilot style watch is an accurate reproduction of the iconic Cold War aviation timepiece.
Cold War Aviation Design
This design pays tribute to the timepieces issued to the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) in the 1960s. The dial features the signature red star below the 12 o'clock marker, which was an important symbol of authority and military alignment for elite jet pilots. This clean, high-contrast face ensured pilots could read the dial instantly mid-flight without distractions.
Reliable Modern Engineering
Featuring a reliable Japanese quartz movement, this timepiece keeps excellent time for daily wear without the need for manual winding. The compact 35mm polished case mirrors standard mid-century military specifications, keeping it lightweight and out of the way. It is paired with an adjustable tan leatherette strap and standard pin buckle for secure, comfortable wear.
Practical Utility and Style
Perfect for history collectors or daily vintage style, this watch offers a distinct military aesthetic. The clear dial features bold Arabic hour markers and a fine minute track divided into fifths, reproducing the high-legibility dials used in tactical navigation. Delivered new in its original presentation packaging, it includes a battery so it is ready to run right away.
Quick Setup Note
The hands on this watch may appear free-moving within the presentation packaging. This is standard design and will resolve immediately once you connect the battery and push the crown wheel fully in to engage the internal quartz movement.
Add this 1960s-style aviation watch to your collection for a reliable, vintage-inspired daily timepiece.
