Watch Photography: REC X.4009 Spitfire

watch_schlicks

Todays watch is the REC X.4009 Spitfire in anthra Gray.

REC as in REClaim or RECycle… all their watches are made with parts of vintage cars, planes etc.

Here, the second dial is made from part of the fuselage of the Mk1a Spitfire flown by Australian fighter ace Pat Hughes in the Battle of Britain.

I love the mechanism especially the Spitfire shaped end plate.

“Awesome” doesn’t even come close to describing that!
