Measuring short times is a vital function for the pilots in the “Swifts” Russian aerobatic display team who match dexterity with breathtaking speed. Aviator, their official sponsor, supports them in their nerves-of-steel exploits with the Professional Edition, a limited series of 300 that has earned its place in the cockpit of the Fulcrum jet fighter. These chronographs are only made available to the public after being put through their paces by professional pilots. An imposing construction and inimitable style will appeal to fans of ultimate mechanics, including those who keep their feet firmly on the ground.
