The Story of ACE PILOT II

Like the original, ACE II is crafted as a large pilot chronograph, designed for intuitive use in the cockpit. With bold hands and clear indices, it’s easy to read, even in low light. The oversized bezel and crown are operable even with gloves, making it practical for pilots in action.

New design elements include a red pusher to control the chronograph and a refreshed dial design that merges vintage aesthetics with modern influences from Swedish aircraft. This includes cockpit-inspired textures on the cylinder, and a subtle silhouette of the Swedish 39 Gripen on the second hand. As a tribute to its origins, the Swedish flag is displayed below the 6 o’clock marker, and a silhouette graces the large crown. The signature ACE symbol remains, paying homage to the watch's heritage and the ace pilots who inspired it.
