Formex AirField Transforms Titanium Field Watch into a Pilot Model
Formex has transformed its robust titanium field watch into a pilot‑style timepiece, the Formex AirField, by introducing a revised dial, new hands, and the upgraded Sellita SW200‑2 Power+ automatic movement. The watch retains the original’s durable grade‑2 titanium case with a 900Hv hardened coating, 40 mm diameter, 10.5 mm thickness, and 150 m water resistance, while the new dial features a grain‑textured surface and aviation‑inspired hour markers filled with Super‑LumiNova. Available in Desert Sand, Horizon Blue, Jet Black, and Tarmac Grey, the AirField can be fitted with either a nylon/Velcro strap or a leather strap equipped with a carbon‑fiber deployant clasp. The updated movement offers a 4 Hz frequency, a 65‑hour power reserve, and improved autonomy, though it is not chronometer‑certified. Pricing starts at $1,060 USD for the nylon/Velcro version and $1,200 USD for the leather‑strap variant. With its blend of field‑watch durability and pilot‑watch aesthetics, the Formex AirField broadens the brand’s appeal to both adventure‑oriented and aviation enthusiasts.
Buying Time Analysis: The release showcases Formex’s innovative blend of rugged field‑watch durability with pilot‑watch aesthetics, introducing a new Sellita SW200‑2 Power+ movement and expanding the brand’s appeal to both adventure‑oriented and aviation enthusiasts.
