In 1938, Squadron-Leader Henry Cozens first took to the cockpit of the Spitfire fighter – having been granted command of the first squadron to be equipped with the new RAF fighter (No.19 Squadron). With its superior design and Rolls-Royce Merlin powerplant, the Spitfire fighter was to become one of Fighter Command's most strategically important, single-seater aircraft of WWII. Commemorate the aircraft that earned a place in the annals of British military history on its introduction to service anniversary, with the limited edition 'Heroes Of The Skies' Men's Watch, unique to The Bradford Exchange and officially endorsed by the Lest We Forget Association. A registered charity, the ‘Lest We Forget’ Association supports the welfare of disabled Armed Forces and Merchant Navy personnel, both active and otherwise, in hospital or at home. This handcrafted art watch's face showcases original art of iconic Spitfire fighters, high above the British landscape. Surrounded by a gold-plated stainless steel casing, the face also depicts a time dial, embellished with the dates: 1938 and 2018. For the perfect finishing touches, the precision Quartz movement watch features a genuine leather strap, and is engraved on the reverse with further commemorations of the 80th anniversary and a schematic of the aircraft. Limited to just 4,999 editions worldwide and individually numbered on the casing reverse, this market-first will be accompanied by a custom-designed presentation case, a Certificate of Authenticity and our 120-day money-back guarantee.
