Nowadays, finding a decent stylish wristwatch for everyday use that’s both durable and affordable can be slightly more complicated than what you might first expect. That goes especially for horology enthusiasts that want a truly functional timepiece that packs several different capabilities, not only including a sturdy construction, but also, notable functionalities such as a decent Water-Resistance Rating as well as a reliable illumination method for reading the watch’s time at night. Nevertheless, with so many brands of wristwatches currently available on the market, you’re bound to have a difficult time choosing exactly which wristwatch brand and model you should go for. With that said, if you’ve been looking for a reliable brand of wristwatches to choose from, then consider having a look at the Vincero The Altitude.
The Vincero The Altitude is a multi-function adventuring pilot watch for everyday use that features large Swiss Luminous Indices and Luminous Hands, Dual Time Dials, and a durable construction that’s accompanied by a 10ATM Water-Resistance Rating.
All in all, this unique pilot watch was designed to combine its stylish design together with an outspreading durability and with multiple exploration-worthy functionalities.
In other words, the Vincero The Altitude comes ready straight out-the-box for both everyday endeavors and once in a lifetime adventures.
Now, let’s have a slightly more detailed look at it and check out everything that this multi-function pilot watch has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the watch’s size, the watch’s case measures exactly 43mm in diameter by 12mm thick. In addition, the watch itself is also reasonably lightweight.
Then, when it comes to the watch’s design, the Vincero The Altitude features a minimalist and ultra-modern pilot-themed watch design, with the watch portraying a sleek and refined chronograph look that’s extremely pleasing to look at.
Moreover, for the watch’s strap, the Altitude comes equipped with a 100D Cordura Nylon Wrist Strap that’s incredibly durable.
That’s because its dense nylon weave is designed to resists frays, tears, and abrasions, which ultimately ensures that the watch’s Cordura Nylon Strap is capable of withstanding a very long term wear. (Note that this Cordura Nylon Strap is only available for the Matte Black/Red model (our review unit on this article) and the Silver/Black model).
Now, back to watch itself. Despite the watch’s light weight, the Vincero The Altitude still features an extremely durable construction, as the watch’s case is made of 316L Surgical Stainless Steel.
And just like the watch’s case, the same goes for its glass, which is made from a scratch-resistant Sapphire Coated Crystal Glass. This combination ultimately gives the watch’s case an outstanding durability.
On top of that, the Altitude Pilot Watch is also rated to have a 10ATM Water-Resistance Rating (this corresponds to approximately a 10 Bar Water Resistance Classification).
That basically means that you can go diving underwater while wearing this pilot watch, with the watch withstanding up to a maximum depth of 330ft. (100 m), thus making it perfect for swimming and snorkelling. (Note that those diving values are specifically for diving in still waters, so keep that in mind).
Inside the watch’s face, we have a fairly large universal dial that also combines two smaller Dual Time Dials arranged in a vertical display, which are a Day & Night Dial (at the top-side) and a 24 Hours Dial (at the bottom-side).
All of the watch’s dials come equipped with sword-shaped Swiss Luminous Watch Hands and reasonably large number indices that make reading the time a breeze, no matter which of the dials you prefer to look at.
Last but not least, it’s also important to note that both the watch’s Swiss Luminous Hands as well as its number indices all come coated by a fairly thick luminous Lume layer that makes the watch’s dials easy to read with just a quick glance, even during night-time.
As such, no matter if it’s day or night, you’ll never have a hard time reading the time from the Vincero The Altitude.
