The Story
“The grey-coloured dial is reminiscent of the hull of the Aircraft Carrier INS Vikrant, with blue hour markers and the blue tip of the seconds hand recalling the high seas the carrier once patrolled.
INS Vikrant was India's first aircraft carrier — commissioned in 1961, decommissioned in 1997, and broken up at Alang. BWC acquired steel from the ship's hull before it was scrapped. 70 uniquely numbered pieces of the Mach 1 Admiral use that steel in the case back. A watch made from the Navy.
