Description

The Bristol B-17 Tribute BW17C is an aviator-inspired timepiece that pays homage to the iconic Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress. Designed for aviation enthusiasts and those who appreciate historical significance, this watch combines classic style with practical functionality.

This watch features a polished stainless steel case and a distinctive beige dial, complemented by a brown leather strap with contrasting stitching. Its design evokes the spirit of vintage pilot watches, making it a bold and elegant statement piece for any wrist.

Beyond its striking appearance, the BW17C offers reliable timekeeping with GMT functionality, allowing you to track multiple time zones. A unique feature is the case back, which incorporates an original airframe artifact from Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress SN#41-2595, directly connecting the wearer to a piece of aviation history.

Highlights:

  • Aviation Heritage: Features an authentic B-17 Flying Fortress artifact on the case back.
  • GMT Functionality: Ideal for travelers and those tracking multiple time zones.
  • Limited Edition: One of only 1,945 units, commemorating the end of World War II.
  • Durable Design: Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance for everyday wear.

How it works

What this watch’s key specs actually mean on the wrist.

Manual wind

Hand-wound mechanical movement

A pure mechanical movement you wind yourself — a few turns of the crown each morning become a small ritual. No rotor and no battery means a slimmer case and an unobstructed view of the movement through many casebacks.

50m / 5 ATM

Water resistance

Rated to 50m / 5 ATM — fine for a shower, a rainstorm or a quick dip in the shallow end, but not for real swimming laps or diving.

24-hour reserve

Power reserve

Fully wound, this movement stores about 24 hours of running time when it's off your wrist. Enough to comfortably carry it overnight without resetting the time. Power reserve is simply how long the mainspring keeps the watch going once you stop wearing it.

44mm

Case size

The case measures 44mm across (excluding the crown) — a modern, present size with real wrist presence, at its best on medium-to-larger wrists. Case size is the single biggest factor in how a watch actually wears, so it's worth picturing against your own wrist.

Stainless steel

Case material

Stainless steel is the all-rounder for good reason: tough, corrosion-resistant, and easy to refinish if it ever picks up a scratch. 316L is the marine-grade alloy used across quality watchmaking — durable enough for daily life and smart enough to dress up.

Please note: international orders may be subject to customs duties, import taxes, or handling fees imposed by the destination country. These charges are set by your local customs authority and, where applicable, are the responsibility of the recipient.
