Hi Christopher, no the watches will not be finished by the anniversary of the Battle of Britain. They should be ready in time for when the Spitfire has been restored and is airworthy again; hopefully within 6 months. Colin

Hi Christopher, thanks for your message.

The case size has been increased to 40mm. It was initially planned to be 42mm, however the Spitfire pilots preferred the slightly smaller size – making it now the same as a Rolex Submariner.
