The Explorer 39
$500.00
The Explorer is one of the first 4 watches in our new Squadron Line of watches. Based on the custom designs worn by thousands of military pilots around the world, these watches represent nearly a decade of refinement and upgrades that we’ve made in order to bring affordable, classic aviation style watches to everyone.
Rooted with our ‘Night-Forest Green’ dial, a bead-blast silver case, and accompanied by our unique riveted mahogany Croco-Band, this watch brings out the explorer in all of us. The butterfly clasp and soft strap leather make for an extremely comfortable fit on your wrist, and the silver and white accents on the dial evokes images of navigational compasses laid on a map, which is where we originally got the inspiration for this watch. Bonus points if you can figure out where the topographic map on the dial is from!
Watch Case: Silver Stainless Steel with a Bead-blast finish
Band Options: This watch will come standard with either the riveted Croco-Band or one of our stitched leather, Ballistic Nylon NATO strap, or Tactical FKM Rubber band. Make your selection below.
Caseback Orientation: Please note that the caseback “design” pictured in this gallery is oriented exactly in line with the watch face for presentation purposes only. During production, the caseback is a separate piece of the watch. When the casebacks are engraved with the airframe design, they are not attached to the rest of the case at that time. Since both the casebacks and cases are threaded separately, when the engraved caseback is then screwed onto the case, the final tightening point will result in the caseback design not being in the exact orientation in relation to the watch face. And there will be some variation from watch to watch.
SHIPPING: There will be a shipping/insurance charge of $18 added to this order and delivery time is within 2 weeks of placing the order for domestic addresses.

Built with the best parts sourced from around the world.
Movement: Swiss Ronda 5021.d.
- Our “Americhrono” watch using a high-end Swiss chronograph movement.
- 2 positioned chronograph.
- 2 recessed sub-dials. 30 minute and 60 second.
- Pull/Push crown used to set the time/date and to adjust chronograph settings.
Case: 39mm wide, 9 mm thick 316 stainless steel.
- The case-back is screwed on and engraved separately from watch to protect the movement from damage from the engraving laser. This process is used in most high-end watches and leads to the caseback engraving not “lining up” with the watch.
- 316 stainless steel is the “go-to” steel for all high-end watches. It is a surgical grade stainless steel that is finished with either a brushed or polished texture.
Hands: Proprietary “continuous curve” hands with subset luminescent markers on the minute and hour hands, as well as on the 2 sub-dials.
Strap: Choose from Genuine Oil Tanned leather, Nylon NATO, or FKM Tactical Rubber.
- 20mm wide.
- Stainless Steel hardware.
Sapphire Crystal Window: Used in all luxury watches, it provides a much higher scratch resistance than the more common mineral glass.
- Hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale.
- Only surpassed by diamond in terms of hardness.
- Sourced from Switzerland with an anti-reflective coating on the inside and outside of the crystal.
Water Resistance: By no means is this a diving watch, but is it water resistant to 100 meters . Not recommended to spend a prolonged amount of time in the water.
Other internal components: Top and bottom rockers are 100% stainless steel, and they run through a stainless steel routing into the movement increasing the strength by an order of magnitude.
