The Force 1

The AVeritas Force 1 is a Pilot watch inspired design. Reminiscent of the pilot watches designed during WWII, the Force 1 is born. The Force 1 borrows some of the original pilot dial elements and combines them with a few modern subtleties. A small splash of color adds a contemporary touch. Hands, badge and strap stitching accent the crisp black and white features. Our top quality Caliber 218 manual wind movement is inside.  It is decorated with a radial côtes de Genève pattern, Swan neck adjustment and blued screws.
Available in Competition Red, Velocity Yellow and Flame Orange.

Limited to only 90 pieces.
