Airman 3400 — A Watchmaker’s Perspective

The Airman 3400 was never designed to impress at first glance.
It was designed to perform without hesitation.

When we began working on this collection, we looked back at cockpit instruments from the early 1960s  not as inspiration for style, but as tools built for survival. In aviation, a pilot doesn’t have time to interpret a dial. Time must be read instantly, without distraction.

That principle became our foundation.

The Design Philosophy

Every element of the Airman 3400 follows a single rule:
clarity over decoration.

The dial was constructed in layers, echoing the depth of vintage cockpit gauges. The contrast between the matte black background and bold white luminous numerals ensures immediate legibility day or night.

Dial Specs:

• Multilayer cockpit-inspired dial
• White luminous numerals on matte black background

Where Pilot Meets Field

While rooted in aviation, the Airman 3400 was intentionally designed to go beyond the traditional pilot watch.

We wanted a watch that carries cockpit DNA, yet wears with the versatility of a field watch. The more compact proportions and clean layout make it suitable for everyday use.

Case Dimensions:

• Diameter: 42 mm

Built Like an Instrument

We approached the case the same way aircraft instruments were engineered:
robust, precise, and dependable.

The brushed finish minimizes reflections, while the construction ensures durability in demanding conditions.

The Heart of Precision

Visibility Above All

In a cockpit, light is unpredictable. Reflections can be blinding.

That’s why we selected sapphire crystal with anti-reflective properties to maintain clarity in all conditions.

• Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal
• High-temperature crystallized aluminum oxide
• Anti-reflective for improved visibility
