Würger II | Focke Wulf Aviation Watch

Key Points

The Focke Wulf Fw190 watch has a 42.5mm case with tapering brushed lugs and a chrome bezel. It is made from high grade stainless steel. The Focke Wulf watch has a classic crown (controlling time and date), and two capped pushers (controlling the chronograph). Unlike the Wurger I, this watch has a sepia toned, beige dial with the classic, flieger style triangle at 12. The watch face is protected by K1 mineral crystal with sapphire coating for added strength, clarity and durability. The polished rear case plate is engraved with the Focke Wulf logo. The brushed buckle is inset with the Focke Wulf name.

Inspiration

The Focke Wulf Wurger II Watch is inspired by the variants that followed the famous Fw190A series aircraft that first flew combat operations in August 1941. The most famous of these is the 190D (Dora) series and the Ta-152. They each built on the foundations of the 190A series to create faster, more potent aircraft. They were not only elegant, but technically more advanced than their predecessors.

Like the Fw190 Anton (A series), the Fw190D Dora was used as an advanced fighter and an interceptor, but was not used as extensively for ground-attack.

Flieger-Style Watches: Where Heritage Meets Innovation

In the 1930s, the German government commissioned the creation of a specialised timepiece for aviators. Known as B-Uhr watches (short for Beobachtungs-Uhren), they were known for their size, originally measuring 55mm in diameter and utilising pocket watch movements.

German Flieger watches were not issued as personal keepsakes. Instead, they were considered essential flight equipment, meant to be returned after each mission.

Crafted in two distinct styles, Type A and Type B, these watches shared a common aesthetic but differed in their dial layouts. Type A featured a minimalist, traditional clock design, while Type B showcased a more intricate arrangement.

Both styles boasted a commanding 55-millimetre case diameter, a matte black dial with luminous markers and hands, and a pocket watch movement.

Choosing a Flieger watch is about more than just selecting a timepiece; it’s about connecting with a rich history of aviation and adventure. These watches symbolise precision, reliability and a pioneering spirit.

Whether you’re an aviation enthusiast or a watch collector, a Flieger-style watch promises timeless quality and sophisticated style.

Functional Elegance

One of the hallmarks of Flieger watches is their impeccably clear and easily readable dials. The luminous markers and hands ensure exceptional visibility in any lighting condition. Though deeply rooted in aviation history, Flieger-style watches exude versatility, making them ideal for any occasion or use.
