The "S Collection": Pursuing the Realism of Instruments
The theme for the first release of the "S Collection" is "Aviator." In addition to designs that replicate instruments, it is equipped with sensors essential for cockpits, such as a variometer. The watch features an analog variometer used in gliders, a waypoint function that indicates the distance and direction to a registered point using analog hands, an altimeter, a barometer, and a compass. These sensors are designed to ignite a curiosity about the sky every time one glances at the dial.
The dial has a matte finish to enhance legibility even in strong sunlight, with high-contrast fonts and hands. The crystal is made of highly transparent, scratch-resistant sapphire glass, further enhanced with a coating that suppresses light reflection by over 99%. The bezel and dial use TRUME's original "T2 Font," while the sections indicating measurement results employ a "meter font" commonly found on cockpit instruments. This not only improves readability but also enhances the realism of the watch as an instrument.
The center seconds hand and the hour and minute hands are designed with a two-tone color scheme at their tips and bases, reminiscent of aviation instruments. Luminous material is applied to the tips, allowing for instant readability of the dial even in darkness.
The "S Collection" offers models with accents of emergency orange, evoking cockpits and aviation instruments, as well as monotone versions. Each comes with a titanium metal band, and swapping it out allows for a fresh look.
