Description

Luminox looks to the legendary American WWII fighter jet designed by Lockheed as inspiration for the newest addition to its Pilot watch collection. The Luminox Air Pilot P-38 LIGHTNING® lives up to the storied fighter jet that heroically served during WWII in both the European and Asian Theatres of Operations. Feared by the enemy because of their manoeuvrability even at high altitudes, the fighter jet earned the nickname, The Fork Tailed Devil, by the Luftwaffe. Lockheed’s P-38 LIGHTNING® was an engineering feat of tits day, and the new Luminox Air Pilot P-38 pays homage to both the design and functionality of this iconic airplane.

With a 42mm steel case, the P-38 boasts all the attributes of a classic pilot’s watch including the highly legible, easy to read dial in black with white Arabic numbers or white with black numbers. A nod to the traditional B-Uhr navigation watch of the 1940’s, just below 12 o’clock is an upwardly pointing triangle with two dots providing quick orientation and the ability to read the time at a glance. With a GMT function in the interior dial ring, the watch is powered by a Swiss made Quartz movement. As with every other Luminox timepiece, it incorporates Luminox Light Technology, making sure that your timepiece is visible in any light conditions for up to 25 years. The piece is available in three dial options and choice of mesh bracelet or strap.
