A New Standard for Pilot Watches







Introducing the latest regular model of the "Pilot Aeronef Type 20" in a slightly smaller 48mm case size, more approachable for Japanese wearers. The substantial weight of the large stainless steel case asserts its identity as a "man's watch."

The Arabic numerals and hands, coated with Super-LumiNova, clearly indicate the current time and a second time zone against the black dial. At the 6 o'clock position, the word "PILOT" shines, a designation uniquely permitted to Zenith within the Swiss watchmaking industry.
