Messerschmitt ME 262 ME-262-42EXTREMA Men's Wristwatch Burnished • Automatic Movement ARISTOMATIC SW 200-1 • Limited Edition 262 Pieces

The Messerschmitt ME 262 ME-262-42EXTREMA is a men's wristwatch of the highest calibre, limited to 262 pieces, crafted in Pforzheim by Aristo. The centrepiece of this watch is the dial made from original aircraft sheet metal of the Messerschmitt ME 262, the world's first jet aircraft. The aluminium, with its natural patina, is stamped and turned down to a thickness of 0.40 mm, then visibly secured to the movement with two steel screws — a unique testament to artisanal craftsmanship. The burnished stainless steel case undergoes a historic hardening and tempering process that lends it a subtly brown patina with a matte finish, making every watch a one-of-a-kind piece. Sapphire crystal on the top and a screwed-in display caseback complete the premium finish. A sandblasted conical crown, along with a burnished Milanese bracelet from metal bracelet manufacturer Vollmer fitted with a safety clasp, round off this extraordinary timekeeping experience. Luminous numerals and hands, plus a seconds hand in luminous orange, ensure optimal legibility even in low-light conditions. With water resistance to 5 ATM, this watch is perfectly suited for everyday wear.

As a numbered collector's piece with a sequential serial number and the Swiss automatic movement ARISTOMATIC SW 200-1, the ME-262-42EXTREMA unites aviation history with modern watchmaking craft.
