SZANTO

Szanto has extended the Heritage Aviator series to include midnight blue and green dials in their retro pilot watch collection . From its inception Szanto has focused on modern interpretations of retro types and these core fundamentals show through in the Heritage Aviator series . Easy to read with an emphasis on the minutes , the new dials embrace the current trends of green and blue dial watches . Both new versions feature brushed stainless-steel cases water resistant to 10atm without a screw-down crown . Rather , Szanto made a great choice by using a push / pull onion style safety crown that will not allow the watch to start running unless the crown is fully pushed in to the case . Healthy doses of SuperLuminova on the hands and indices make this easy-to-read day or night and accuracy is ensured with a Japanese quartz movement under the new dials , which themselves are protected under a hardened mineral crystal . The 41mm case is held in place with a genuine leather strap and attractively priced at $ 225 .
