CASe and crystal

Sized at an authentic 39mm and standing 14mm thick, the case reflects the restrained proportions of mid-century pilot chronographs — substantial enough for presence, yet true to vintage ergonomics. The pump pushers and oversized crown are purposeful and tactile, echoing a time when pilots operated their instruments while gloved at altitude.

• 39mm diameter (not including crown) 316L stainless steel with three piece construction; top and bottom bezels mirror polished; middle section is linear brushed. The watch measures 14mm in height, 46mm lug to lug with 20mm lugs

• 7mm oversized waterproof screw-down crown with OWC logo

• True boxed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with Anti-Reflective coating

• Water-resistant to 10 ATM

• Decorated screw-down caseback with an engraved/embossed 3-star design within a circle, representing vintage and current Air Force insignia and giving a nod to the Tennessee flag; the birth-state of Origin Watch Co. and this timepiece

• Numbered as one of total number of units produced

MOVEMENT

At its heart beats a hand-wound chronograph movement — a deliberate choice. The ritual of winding connects the wearer to the mechanics within, just as aviation crews once depended on the reliability of springs, levers, and gears rather than circuits and screens. A manual chronograph is not merely nostalgic; it is mechanical honesty in its purest form that directly connects you to more than 400 years of watchmaking craftsmanship. The process of hand winding the mainspring that sets the watch in motion is an authentic ritual, directly bonding you to the engineering marvel of tiny precision parts working together to tell time.

• Hand-wound (manual) mechanical Peacock SL4617III caliber

• Decorated finish; radial stripes decoration with blued screws

• 32 jewels, 28,800 beats/hour, ~45+ hour power reserve (after full winding), shock protection

• Functions: Center hour/minute/chronograph seconds hands; 3H - Chronograph 30 minutes hand and register; 9H - small seconds hand and register

DIAL and HANDS

The dial remains faithful to the principles that defined the original Type 20 specification:

• Bold, high-contrast Arabic numerals

• Symmetrical bi-compax chronograph layout

• Clear 30-minute totalizer for flight timing

• Precise outer minute track for navigational accuracy

• Sword-style hands designed for instant legibility

There is no excess. No unnecessary ornament. Every line serves a function. With the goal of less is more, we kept the design extremely simple where legibility rules the day (or night). The brass dial is painted with a flat finish, with indexes sharply printed in a contrasted paint. The flat finish of the dial is differentiated by the stunning sunburst radial pattern of the recessed sub-dials.

• 33.5mm brass finished with luminous Arabic numerals that glow blue in the dark, coated with high grade (A Grade) Swiss BGW9 Super-Luminova

• Luminous hour, minute, and chonograph tip hands glow blue in the dark, coated with high grade (A Grade) Swiss BGW9 Super-Luminova

• 30-minute chronograph sub-dial at 3H / 60-second seconds sub-dial register at 9H

• Contrast colored sunken-in sub-dials with a turning design (at 3H and 9H)

STRAP

You have a choice of a premium calf leather strap or a stainless steel mesh bracelet. Both feature quick release spring bars.

Leather strap

Calf leather strap speaks to the soul of the journey. Designed for purist who values the tactile warmth of traditional materials, this strap transforms your timepiece into a classic instrument of style. We selected top-grain leather for its softness and its ability to develop a unique patina over time. Like a well-worn flight jacket or a vintage steering wheel, this strap will evolve with you, becoming more supple and personalized with every mile traveled.

• 20 x 16 mm vintage calf leather with contrast stitching throughout; 120 by 75 mm length

• One sewn in and one floating keeper

• Polished thumbnail buckle with Origin Watch Co. logo embossed

Milanese Mesh Bracelet

Signature Milanese Mesh, a bracelet that marries the rugged heritage of mid-century aviation with the refined sophistication of modern industrial design. Woven from high-grade stainless steel, the mesh construction offers breathability and flexibility. It contours effortlessly to the unique shape of your wrist, providing a custom-fit feel from moment you buckle the clasp. You have nearly infinite adjustability: no need for specialty tools or removing links; the sliding clasp allows for micro-adjustments on the fly. The intricate, shimmering texture of the weave provides a stunning contrast to the matte dial and brushed steel lugs. It catches the light with every movement, ensuring that while the watch is a tool by nature, it remains a statement piece by design.
