Messerschmitt Flieger Cockpit ME-7H148 Men's Watch Black • Sapphire Crystal • Automatic Movement Sellita SW 200

The Messerschmitt Flieger Cockpit ME-7H148 is a men's automatic watch in the classic pilot's watch style with a distinctive cockpit design. The burnished stainless steel case with a diameter of 43 mm gives the watch a striking, slightly brown patina with a matte finish — a special process borrowed from toolmaking that enhances both the appearance and the quality of the case. The black dial with cream-coloured luminous numerals and hands draws inspiration from aircraft cockpit instruments, ensuring excellent legibility. Despite the substantial 43 mm case size, the watch sits comfortably even on smaller wrists, thanks to the closely fitted lugs. The vintage leather strap underscores the timeless aviator character of this timepiece.

Inside beats the reliable Swiss automatic movement Sellita SW 200, visible through the transparent display caseback. A sandblasted conical crown in stainless steel and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal complete the high-quality finishing. The watch is water-resistant to 5 bar and features a date display in black.
