The Aviator Airacobra GMT watch is inspired by the P-39 Airacobra aircraft. The P-39 Airacobra, a pioneering aeronautical marvel, challenged design norms and drove technical advances in aviation. Its modern design harmonized streamlined aesthetics with an all-metal fuselage for enhanced aerodynamics and durability. Notably, it was among the first to feature such a streamlined profile, with sleek, tapering wings marking the art-deco era in aeronautics. The P-39 Airacobra excelled in cockpit visibility, enhancing pilot situational awareness. The ergonomic cockpit layout ensured intuitive control and instrument access.
The Aviator Airacobra GMT blends style and ergonomics, echoing the aircraft's form and wings in its lugs while paying homage to the Airacobra. The dial, inspired by the aircraft's instrumentation, prioritizes visibility and readability of various indications.
The case of the Aviator Airacobra GMT elegantly embodies aviation spirit with superior craftsmanship. The wing-shaped watch lugs represent a fusion of style and ergonomics. Crafted with precision, the intricate knurling pattern on the watch bezel draws inspiration from essential controller elements found in the aircraft cockpit. This design not only enhances the watch's sophisticated appearance but also ensures a flawless grip for effortless rotation of the bezel ring.
The dial fo the Aviator Airacobra GMT is a tribute to the high-contrast layout and pristine clarity of the P-39 Airacobra's altimeter. Prioritising legibility, the dial showcases a meticulously recreated font and a discerning division of elements, each marked and coloured for effortless identification. This thoughtful organisation simplifies navigation, enabling viewers to effortlessly appreciate and interpret the dial's multiple functions.
The Aviator Airacobra GMT watch features an additional time display at the 9 o’clock position, which allows the user to set and track a second time zone simultaneously. Pull out the crown to position I and use it to set the correct hour for the home time in any time zone of your choice.
The Aviator Airacobra GMT timepiece features a special external bezel that allows you to rotate the inner city ring. After setting your home time, align your selected city with the 9 o'clock triangle marker by rotating the inner city ring using this external bezel to define your home time zone effortlessly. This feature makes it simple to keep track of multiple time zones on your watch.
The rotating inner city ring and fixed offset values on your Aviator Airacobra GMT watch allow the user to read the time in all 24 time zones. Once the home time and the time zone is configured, check the desired city and its corresponding GMT offset (“+” or “-”) values to read the time in this city/time zone. The offset value shows how the user shall adjust the home time to check the time in another desired time zone (city).
The caseback design of the Aviator Airacobra GMT takes inspiration from the minimalistic and vintage style of yesteryears, where a label is engraved to reflect important information about the watch, reminiscent of the back of vintage flight instruments. This design not only evokes a sense of nostalgia but also showcases the meticulous attention to detail that has defined aviation history. Furthermore, Aviator's timepieces come equipped with an ingenious easy-lock solution, allowing for swift strap interchangeability. This innovation ensures that you can effortlessly adapt your watch to various occasions, all the while preserving the timeless spirit of aviation on your wrist.

The Alexander Shorokhoff Neva Chronograph is a limited edition of 100 pieces and inspired by the mighty and most water-rich river in Europe - the Neva. This is a 74km long river in Russia, which flows from Lake Ladoga into the Neva Bay of the Baltic Sea, passing through Saint Petersburg.
From this inspiration, the wavy guilloché dial was created and can be found in the Alexander Shorokhoff Neva Chronograph - at the upper and somewhat smaller dial, with the hour markers punched out there.
The small curved second hand in the shape of the letter “N”, referencing the name of the watch, as well as the magnificence of the city of St Petersburg through its curved shape, is also found in the Alexander Shorokhoff Neva Chronograph. Silver hands create a shiny contrast to the colourful appearance of the dial, making it easier to read the time.
Furthermore, the beautiful automatic chronograph offers the familiar features of the Alexander Shorokhoff AvantGarde line: the large number 60, the silver-coloured “Alexander Shorokhoff” lettering, which this time has been displayed as an application, and a water resistance of up to 5ATM. The 43.5mm stainless steel case houses the hand-engraved and refined 2030.AS (base 2030 Dubouis Depraz) calibre with a hand-engraved and refined rotor.

The Alexander Shorokhoff AvantGarde 08 is a true masterpiece of the avant-garde design movement. It breaks the boundaries of conventional watch design and plays with bold colour combinations. The three main colours used in this watch are orange, yellow and blue – each colour brings a certain contrast to the black background and creates a certain emotionality.
The avant-garde design language of each hour section on the Alexander Shorokhoff AvantGarde 08 makes the watch a real work of art. Depicted with white colour, each elaboration symbolises the corresponding hour in its own unique way.
The elongated hands with round recesses, also in the three avant-garde colours, are perfectly coordinated and form a harmonious interplay with the dial. The round recesses give the hands an elegant lightness that perfectly matches their slim design. They are not only a useful element in any watch, but also a statement.
Together, all these colours form a harmonious and strong colour scheme that makes the Alexander Shorokhoff AvantGarde 08 not only a formal timepiece, but also an expression of the style and personality of its wearer.
The hand-wound 2614.AS calibre powering the watch is distinguished by its hand engraving and finishing, which gives the movement a special aesthetic. Blued screws add a colourful accent and complete the appearance. The calibre is equipped with 17 jewels integrated into the movement to minimise wear and increase accuracy. The power reserve of the caliber is about 42 hours, which means that the watch can run for about two days after being fully wound before it needs to be wound again. All in all, the Alexander Shorokhoff AvantGarde 08 is an elegant and precise choice for watch lovers who are interested in traditional movements with a special aesthetic.
The bracelet was designed in the same style as the dial, with contrasting coloured stitching in red and yellow on cool black, contrasting yet balanced. It is another creative move and a symbol of the creativity and originality of the creator Alexander Shorokhov.
This avant-garde art object is limited to only 50 pieces, making it a rare and sought-after collector’s item.
