[Pilot's Type Collection] The Beta channels the spirit of mid-century aviation, when pilot's watches were built for precision, quick reads, and mechanical reliability. Its black dial takes cues from old cockpit instruments, while the chronograph layout mirrors the timing tools pilots depended on in the air. What started as a naming mix-up became part of its character, giving the Beta a story as distinctive as its look. Rugged, refined, and ready for everyday wear, it captures the cool, functional style of 1950s pilot chronographs.

Large, legible dials. Reliable movements. Bold hands that stayed visible in low-light cockpits. Rotating bezels that helped track fuel or timing at a glance. The Beta draws from those practical details, pairing them with modern solar technology and durable construction. Its name comes from a happy mistake. What was meant to be œBravo became œBeta, and instead of revising course, we embraced the detour. It's a small reminder that great design sometimes comes from unexpected turns. The result is a pilot's chronograph that feels grounded in history but built for now.
