This is the replica version of the Cabot Watch Company pilot’s chronograph supplied to Royal Air Force pilots in the 1970s and 1980s. It has the distinctive asymmetrical case which is thicker on one side than the other and protects the crown and the chronograph pushers from accidental shocks during use.
