356 Sa PILOT III Commerzbank

The classic chronograph in the 356 series impresses with its clear, aesthetic appearance. Nothing distracts from the essentials; everything is subordinate to the accurate reading of the different times.

With a diameter of 38.5 mm, the discreetly dimensioned case boasts an elegant finish and exudes high-quality, sophisticated functionality. Connoisseurs will notice another refined feature: the high domed sapphire crystal glass. In an elaborate process, the sapphire crystal glass is ground out of a solid blank that is around 5 mm thick with five different curvature radii and is then painstakingly polished. The anti-reflective coating on both sides facilitates accurate reading of the strikingly designed dial, even under extreme lighting conditions. The special features of this edition are the hour counters and the hour hand and minute hand in ocean petrol plus the stopwatch hands in yellow/ocean petrol, reflecting the colours of the Commerzbank corporate design.

The glass back is also made of sapphire crystal, allowing the mechanical movement and winding rotor – complete with limited-edition number engraving – to be admired in all their intricacy. The elaborate sealing of the crown, push-pieces, back and crystal makes the watch water-resistant to DIN 8310, resistant to low pressure and pressure-resistant up to 10 bar. The chronograph comes in a fine wooden case with a finelink bracelet and a leather strap with yellow stitching specially adapted to this special edition.

With a limited edition of 100 watches, the 356 Sa PILOT III for Commerzbank is the result of a partnership between two of Frankfurt‘s renowned, long-established companies.
