Product Description

The Vickers Armstrongs Limited Edition Hand Assembled Alcock Escapade in Black men’s watch celebrates one of two men who piloted the world’s first non-stop transatlantic flight. In June 1919, John Alcock took flight alongside Arthur Brown in a modified Vickers Vimy, leaving from Newfoundland and arriving in Clifden in under 16 hours. Alcock and Brown were later presented with a prize of £10,000 to celebrate their accomplishment.

Precise and comprehensive chronograph movement powers the timepiece, operating the Minutes, Hours, and Seconds counters arranged on the oil-black dial to share similarities with the aeroplane cockpit. Surrounding this, the Tachymeter chapter ring measures speed based on time and distance travelled, allowing you to mimic Alcock's and Brown’s seminal adventure.

The Vickers Armstrongs logo-engraved stainless steel caseback demonstrates the undeniable place the company holds in British aviation history. Its grease-black silicone strap matches the black IP case, and these combine to prove the impressive feat performed by Alcock and his partner Brown.
