Victorinox Airboss Collection är en kollektion som inspirerats av en Air Boss - den person på ett hangarfartyg som bestämmer alla start- och landningstider för flygplanen. Nu får kollektionen förstärkning av modellen Airboss Mach 9 Black Edition. Den har bland annat start/stopp-knappen vid siffran 8 - något som ska göra tidtagningen bekvämare för högertummen.

AIRBOSS MACH 9
The Airboss collection is inspired by the countdown commander of an aircraft carrier - known as the
“Air Boss” - who determines every take-off and landing time. His role requires pinpoint accuracy and
unwavering attention to detail.
To mark the end of 2015, the Airboss line is welcoming its newest addition: the Airboss Mach
9 chronograph. This timepiece features all the exceptional functions introduced by Victorinox
Swiss Army, namely a 180° rotation of the movement, which places the chronograph
start/stop button at 8 o’clock for optimal use by the right thumb, a crown and date window at
9 o’clock, and a second crown at 2 o’clock.
Refined aesthetics, robustness, precision and perfect readability across all functions are the
watchwords that guided the creators of this model, which has been reinterpreted and redesigned
down to the finest detail for the 2015 version. The very open dial is characterized by oversized
numerals and long central hours and minutes hands, both covered with luminescent material and
topped by the chronograph seconds hand. As expected, Victorinox Swiss Army has not forgotten
military time, which is printed on a circle traced in the center.
The timekeeping functions are operated in the traditional manner, using two oblong pushers
positioned on the flank of the caseband either side of the crown. The 30-minute counter is at
6 o’clock, the 12-hour counter at 12 o’clock, the small-seconds indicator at 3 o’clock and the date
aperture at 6 o’clock.
One of the most popular features of pilot watches is the practical rotary slide rule inscribed on the
rotating bezel. This allows you to measure and convert different variables, such as the metric system
into miles or liters into gallons, as well as speed, distance and fuel consumption. This function can
prove extremely useful both in the air and in everyday life.
The Airboss Mach 9 chronograph is available in two versions: the first features an ecologically tanned
brown leather strap while the second offers a stainless steel bracelet. A truly high caliber instrument,
the Airboss successfully reinterprets the aesthetic codes of the first pilot watches.
AIRBOSS BLACK EDITION
The new Airboss Black Edition range showcases an essential expression of the Airboss collection.
The Mach 9, Mechanical Chronograph and three hands models are now available in black
PDV-treated versions with sandblasted cases that create a matt, technical and modern look.
Victorinox’s signature red is present on both the seconds hand and the military time stamped on the
lower part of the sapphire crystal.
The strap has been made from black canvas for a touch of elegance, with four areas of red stitching
for a recognizable signature.
