About this deal

The top subdial is for minute counter of the chronograph while the left subdial is for showing the running seconds hand. Even though this is a dedicated pilot watch, Seiko has actually implemented 200 meters of water resistance. Another point for durability and functionality. You’d not expect such an implementation, but it’s a welcomed modification. It’s always good to have some sort of water resistance with your watch, just in case you forget to take it off before going for a bath or a dive. A slide rule on aviation watches is named rotary slide rule because its circle in shape (compared to normal slide rule that is bar in shape like normal ruler). The hour, minute, and chronograph hand is applied with Lumibrite to make them visible in the dark (as pilots would have to fly during the night). This also goes for the round markers.

The sub-dials have the typical ringed engravings and the mineral crystal over the dial is also domed, which is nice to see. For those with slimmer wrists, this is one of the few options that will likely fit your wrist, rather than dominating it; as is the case with many other homage watches. To achieve this, Seiko uses screw down on the watch’s crown and pushers. It does not really make any sense to give an aviation watch a 200 m water resistance rating but who cares right? The main second hand (with the popping yellow color which is something that I really like) is only moving when using the chronograph. By rotating the bezel, various navigational calculations can be made (in addition to normal slide rule calculations listed above) such as: While the dial arrangement is very similar to different Navitimer models, the fonts used are different and this model comes in some alternative colourways that set it apart from some of the ‘clones’ featured in this article.The second half features a selection of watches that clearly pay homage to the Breitling, but add some more unique design cues and individual flair to the mix. Enjoy. The bezel has a sharp sawtooth edge which allows you to operate it with ease and get a good grip. The bezel is actually internal, and the only thing that is external is tits sawtooth edge so that you are able to operate it. The internal bezel is sloped which helps with readability but also gives the watch a greater depth. Hi Brian! Happy to hear you got one for yourself. It’s essentially ruined most other chronographs for me. In this post, we are reviewing the Seiko Flightmaster SNA411P1 and looking at it up close in detail to understand why this watch is so popular. It is also water resistant and it can outstand around 200M of water, this wristwatch can even be useful during scuba diving and it looks amazing on any style. It can be used for casual events or business meetings.

The rotary slide rule on the Seiko SNA411 is more elaborate than other normal slide rules due to many scales on it. As a result, you can use the SNA411 for many calculations. The bottom subdial is for showing the alarm (this watch actually has one!). It can also be used to set for a different time zone which is truly useful during traveling. A slide rule is an important tool for aviation because it allows for rapid calculations “off the cuff”. Fuel efficiency, unit conversions, and more are important to know when trying to determine, say, how far you can go with what you’ve got in the tank, especially when a mile up in the sky. Oh, and miles to kilometers? The slide rule does that easily. Pilot’s watches for the people Whilst being constructed of the same material, the 903 has a higher level of finishing and there are also some differences within the case.

water resistance, suitable for professional marine activity, serious surface water sports, and skin diving. Even though the usability and functionality of the Seiko SNA411 can’t be denied, a watch these days still has to look good and feel good. Importantly, this model has pretty strong water performance and a decent amount of luminescence, making it quite a practical watch, despite the large size.
