Pilot Big Date Flyback Steel

Upon first glance, the PILOT Automatic feels revelatory and sleek - successfully referencing its own heritage with subtlety while resisting the trappings of vintage-inspired aesthetics. Serving as the template for the future of the PILOT series, this timepiece sports a 40mm black ceramic case that has been micro-blasted to a matte finish and a richly textured black corrugated dial that imparts the overall look with an austere edge. The large, white, sans-serif Arabic numerals and hands filled with lume offer a dramatic contrast to the dark tones of the case and dial for a highly legible reading experience - even at night.

Drawing inspiration from aviation pioneers whose dreams stretched far beyond the horizon, Zenith has recreated its PILOT series for the contemporary age. Redesigning the collection from scratch, the new Zenith PILOT Automatic features an updated case, modern materials, and is powered by the El Primero 3620 automatic high-frequency movement for maximum accuracy.

With the stainless steel case measuring 42.5mm, the Big Date Flyback is unabashed on the wrist but uses that real estate to pack in the aviation-inspired functionality with the large chronograph subdials resting at the three o’clock and nine o’clock positions. The intriguingly textured matte black corrugated dial compliments the sheen of the stainless steel case and its matching oversized crown that harkens to the “onion” shape crowns of early pilot watches. In a nod to the El Primero Rainbow Flyback of 1997, the minutes totalizer sports alternating bright colors to help distinguish between five-minute intervals and adds a touch of playfulness to this classic and minimal watch.

With the black ceramic case measuring 42.5mm, the PILOT Big Date Flyback is unabashed on the wrist but uses that real estate to pack in aviation-inspired functionality with the large chronograph subdials resting at the three o’clock and nine o’clock positions. The intriguingly textured corrugated dial compliments the austerity of the black matte case and the matching oversized crown that harkens to the “onion” shape crowns of early pilot watches. Large white lume-filled Arabic numerals indicate the hours, and along with the white hands and indices, make for a sleek monochromatic design that allows for easy reading of all functions.
