16570 Explorer... Do you consider it one of the air/pilot watches?
If you put together a land/air/sea trio would you include the 16570?
I’m curious because as we all know the spelunking storyline of the watch especially the polar version and then I read this earlier elsewhere: “ There is an extra 24-hour hand that points to a fixed bezel with 24-hour markings. The logic behind this is that cave explorers are often in the dark, and therefore, can’t tell the difference between AM and PM. The 24-hour hand points to either 10:00 or 22:00, the wearer can now know whether it’s day or night.” I’ve heard others state it’s not a true GMT watch whatever they mean by that... Thoughts? |
