A legendary timepiece
Type 20 refers to a specification for pilot's chronographs issued by the French Ministry of Defense. The unique feature of the Type 20 was the 'flyback' function, which allows the pilot to easily reset the chronograph hand, and quickly start timing a new event without the lag in time of pushing two more buttons.
The dial
The Vert Militaire Limited Edition dial will have a striking, camo green hue. A nod to the Type 20's history as the preferred tool watch for the French armyās aviation service.
The movement
The Type 20 Re-Edition is powered by our caliber AM1, developed and made by Manufacture La Joux-Perret S.A. in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. This hand-wound column wheel chronograph movement with flyback function boasts 60 hours of power reserve. Its chronograph can count up to 30 minutes and has Incabloc shock protection.
Swiss Made
