Collection Mach Watch, Model Concorde AirSpeed ®
GMT ETA-Valjoux 7754, 2in1 silver and black, limited version
Unfortunately, very little information is known, I had to adjust to the functions of the Valjoux movement. To make the time easier to read and stopwatch sec function, I added an additional 12h index (Tap = 1). The sub dial left acts as a small second or as a stopwatch minute counter. GMT time is adjustable, two versions in one face, silver and black (Tap = 11). Automatic switchover in sunset DIM mode. Completely revised with Photoshop, encoded in WatchMaker.
More Info see Function below. Enjoy this extraordinary face.

The dial on a black matte background reproduces the element of the dashboard of the supersonic, especially with the very recognizable hour hand in black and orange checkerboard.
A legendary airplane, a unique watch
History:

The myth took off.
40 years later, it is an unprecedented homage that Agnès Patrice-Crépin wanted to pay to the legendary Concorde.
