This is vintage perfection; over 60 years old and still a looker.. #airain #airaintype20 #type20 #flyback #chronograph #watchfam 📸 by @jackroad1987

This mechanical Airain Type 11 was allowed to serve as a cockpit clock for many years. Equiped with a Valjoux 551 movement it shows the time and it has a chronograph with a 15 minute counter. Today, it serves as a desk clock in our office. It’s just great to look at! What do you think? #airain #airaintype11 #type11 #aviationclock

After months of hard work we have successfully completed technical development for the Airain Type 20 Re-Edition! 💪🏼☺️ Together with our suppliers, we have discussed and worked out every part in the utmost detail. All technical drawings were approved on March 11 which concluded the technical development phase.

We are now moving into the prototype phase where all parts like case, movement, hands, dials and straps are made for approval.
By the way, what do you think of our unique vintage style double buckle (pic no. 2)? #airain #airaintype20 #airainwatches

Airain Calibre AM1 🍾
We are proud to show you the movement we will be using for our Airain Type 20 Re-Edition. Our hand-wound calibre AM1, which includes a column wheel chronograph with flyback complication, is made for us by La Chaux-de-Fonds based Manufacture La Joux-Perret. Here is a first glimpse on how it is going to look like! Are you just as excited as we are? #airain #airaintype20 #type20

Some vintage gorgeousness for today. Visit clockmetender.net for @jerry_watches’ review of this vintage Airain Type 20 #airain #airaintype20

The Airain Type 20 Brown Limited Edition celebrates the revival of Montres Airain and is limited to 134 pieces which refers to the founding year of Airain; 1934. It combines a stainless steel case with chocolate brown dial and strap which is available at a special pre-order price for a limited time only.

The Airain Type 20 Re-Edition faithfully matches in every detail the design of the original 1950’s Type 20, including a hand-wound column wheel chronograph with flyback function and countdown bezel. Its dial, protected by a domed Hesalite crystal, has the same Arabic numerals as the original timepieces, with two registers at 3 and 9 o’clock that can count to 30 minutes. The hand-applied Super-LumiNova color has been carefully chosen to recall the original luminescent material of the original Type 20. The 39,5mm stainless steel case is slightly bigger than the original to match modern standards without losing the allure of its famous ancestor. The Type 20 Re-Edition is powered by our caliber AM1 which boasts 55 hours of power reserve, developed by Manufacture La Joux-Perret S.A. in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.

An interesting take on this 18K 1950s Airain by @lecalibreofficiel who states that this might have been a jubilee or celebration watch to celebrate, for instance, the validation or Airain’s Type 20 for the French Army.. Whatever the case, the diversity of details, the quality of execution and the choice of material of the case, make this an exceptional 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.
Other characteristics of the original Type 20 chronographs were: a 38mm diameter and 14mm thick case, a black dial with luminescent indexes and hands, a mechanical movement with a power reserve of over 35 hours, a relative precision of + or – 8 seconds per day and finally, the capacity to withstand the running, stopping and resetting of the chronograph more than 300 times without causing any problems to the movement. Shown here is the Type 21 specification which succeeded the Type 20 specification in April 1956. #airain #type20 #airaintype20
