Rugged yet sophisticated, the AirBoss Collection was first introduced in 2003, inspired by the flight deck boss of today’s aircraft carriers.The beauty and fascination of this timepiece lies in its cockpit like feeling with all its instruments and controls.

Victorinox Swiss Army presents the limited edition AirBoss Mach 6 Power Gauge with mechanical movement. Would it have wings it would fly.

Recognizable at first sight, this very special timepiece is held in a strong 45mm diameter steel case and has a triple-coated anti-reflective sapphire crystal which allows a view on a striking black dial. The chiseled hands and numbers with PVD Black Ice coating and luminescent segments on all hands and subdial markers ease the use in the dark. The aggregate with the very advanced power reserve gauge function is featured by a 7750 Valjoux self-winding chronograph movement. Delicate engraved details on the caseback show the Swiss Air force emblem and the limited edition number of the individual timepiece.

Through the sapphire crystal the inside mechanics are visible and the oscillating weight with Victorinox Swiss Army's logo engraving underlines the bold statement to detail. Elegant dimension to the dial and the crown - with embossed cross and shield emblem - reflect the brand’s full attention to finishes. The power is held together by a black leather strap with grey stitching

The AirBoss Mach 6 Power Gauge is produced in a very limited edition of 333 units. Each timepiece will be deployed and recovered in a special collector’s box with certificate acting as its airbase.
