We are offering a piece of horological history: a Waltham US Military A-17 pilot's watch from the 1950s. This model has a fascinating backstory, originating from a 1948 USAF specification (later MIL-W-6433) for a new pilot's watch. Ultimately, the Waltham Watch Company was exclusively chosen to supply the Air Force with this iconic timepiece, with the official approval of Mil Spec MIL-W-6433 for the Waltham Type A17 occurring on March 23, 1951.
