Pilot watches from WW1 figher plane : symbols of courage

In the name of adventure and aviation, BLACK SPARROW timepieces are inspired by the instruments used in World War I fighter planes. In the early 20th century, Eugene Bullard was an American citizen who was born in Georgia but moved to Paris with his family at age five. During World War I, Bullard joined the French Foreign Legion and served as an infantryman on the front lines. In 1917, he volunteered for the Lafayette Flying Corps, a squadron of American volunteer aviators who flew combat missions on behalf of France. He became the first African American combat pilot enlisted during WW1 in the French aviation army. The Black Sparrow collection pays tribute to Bullard’s heroic journey with audacity – a time instrument from the past on your wrist. The retrograde minute and jumping hour being powered by a new RESERVOIR RSV-240 caliber, an automatic movement oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz). These watches are designed with steel or black PVD cases and dials with Art Nouveau-inspired luminescent numerals mounted on a black or brown Barenia leather straps.
