Gift set with a classic Pilot Watch
A few signs will tell you that this kit will work best as a gift for him:
He thinks Rolexes are overrated (too common)
He loves Top Gun
He enjoys all things EDCs, such as blades, flashlights, and all things military such as military watches on fabric straps
Then you know you've arrived at the right kit. This is a 40mm Pilot Watch kit with a field/military watch design language. Its design references a classic military watch back in the world war era - Mark XI Pilot watch created specifically for the British Royal Airforce.
