The Hemel Airfoil
Airfoil Pilot Chronograph with ST19 Mechanical Movement
The Hemel Airfoil redefines what a modern pilot chronograph watch can be, powered by the ST19 column-wheel mechanical chronograph movement. Known for its precision and reliability, the ST19 is a movement celebrated among vintage chronograph enthusiasts and microbrand collectors alike.
Vintage 1970s British Military Inspiration
The Airfoil’s dial design takes direct cues from 1970s British military pilot watches, combining a thoughtfully appointed layout, a narrow bezel, and a slender strap for a refined, sophisticated profile. Every detail is designed to evoke classic aviation heritage while remaining wearable in a contemporary setting.
Full-Lume Aged Ivory Colored Dial
