Pilot watches- Which one is better?

[Tricolore]

Archimede pilot series?
and i cannot advise anything on their quality, cos i have not owned any of them.
they just released a new pilot model in bronze, and i like the look very much.

Heard about that before, but doesn't seems to be really popular ley :/
It's ok! To each his own, I guess

Nice watch, but $$ wise not that Swee ley...
Budget around $1K odd, unless I'm offloading a watch from my collection :/

Think You can try the Archimede Pilot XL series , I owned one with 45mm, very good quality watch and hard to come by on teh second hand market.

Archimede has an advantage in that they manufacture their own cases, but most of the movements are not decorated. I would consider their autos not the manual 6497.

German timekeeper stocks them. They are based in sg I think.

Wonder what differentiates a PILOT watch from a normal watch...

[Sebbb]

what about uboats and bell and rosses? I get quite hooked up on them lately... I previously had never though I will consider anyone of these brands.

you may consider tutima, wempe & sinn too. own a stowa flieger myself and lets just say its well worth the wait.
never did quite like the steinhart, quality your getting for the price might be fantastic but.. like what a bro said earlier, the brand identity just doesn't seem right imho.

may I know what are recommended aviation watches are there?
