The Zelos Skyraider Bronze Skeleton is an incredible aviator watch. The Douglas A-1 Skyraider was one of the last few propeller driven attack aircraft and Zelos used this name as inspiration. The watch is powered by a beautifully decorated, Swiss Made, handwinding ETA 6498-1 movement, which is visible through the caseback window.

Another obvious perk of the watch is the material: it's entirely made from CuSn8 bronze. Bronze has the great attribute that it builds up a layer of patina. This is an ongoing process which makes every watch unique. Discolouration is normal with this material. One major benefit is that you can largely bring back your watch in the original condition by using a Cape Cod cloth. 

The thing that will catch your eye most is the incredible face of it - or better said: what is left of it. The bridges and components have been painstakingly cut out to reveal the inner workings of the movement. You will be able to see the beat of the escapement and pallet fork, its steady pulse is mesmerizing to watch. This is a truly special movement and finished to a very high standard.

Alongside the fitted Horween Chromexcel Brown leather strap, the watch also comes with a Military Grey Canvas with Horween backing strap. The watch comes with 1, high quality, buckle.

All in all the Skyraider is a high end, unique, special, beautiful and just lovely watch to own and mostly: wear!

  2 year warranty

  We offer a 2 year warranty on all watches. This covers all mechanical malfunction arising from parts failure and/or assembly errors. Excluded are parts that by their nature may not last 2 years, like batteries and leather straps, damage/problems caused by improper use and wear and tear. We stand behind the brands that we sell and the quality that they offer.
  Some of our brands also offer an international warranty, which will also apply.

  Service and parts

  In the unfortunate event of a problem with your watch, you simply need to send it to us (or take it to another dealer if the brand offers an international warranty). We have access to the official service centers, where only original parts are used and the watchmakers are qualified and experienced with your type of watch. Not every watch movement is the same, so it's best if it's handled by people who know what they are doing.
  After your 2 years warranty has expired we are able to offer service in most cases.
