A standout feature of the Type 20 was its &lsquo;flyback&rsquo; function, enabling pilots to swiftly reset the chronograph hand, facilitating quick initiation of a new timing event without the delay caused by pressing additional buttons. Original Type 20 chronographs boasted distinct features: a 38mm diameter case, a black dial with luminescent indexes and hands, a hand-wound mechanical chronograph movement with flyback complication offering over 35 hours of power reserve, a relative precision within + or \u2013 8 seconds per day, and robustness capable of enduring over 300 chronograph resets without impacting the movement&rsquo;s functionality.<\/p>\n<p>The new Airain Type 20 faithfully adheres to the precise design and specifications of the original 1950s Type 20. This re-edition incorporates a hand-wound column wheel chronograph with a flyback function and a countdown bezel. Its black dial, shielded by a domed sapphire crystal, mirrors the Arabic numerals seen on the original 1950s Type 20, featuring twin registers at 3 and 9 o\u2019clock that can time up to 30 minutes. Carefully chosen hand-applied Super-LumiNova recreates the luminescent essence of the original Type 20. With a 39.0mm stainless steel case (39.5mm bezel) slightly larger than the original, it meets contemporary standards without losing the charm of its iconic predecessor.
