I

n World War I, the skies were a battlefield. Victory was decided in fractions of a second. Pilots who mastered speed and precision became legends. And the first multi-function wristwatches forever changed air combat. The new chronographs allowed fighter pilots to time complicated maneuvers and coordinate attacks. Every decent Ace had one up his sleeve. Now it’s your turn.

Stauer Flyboy Optics™ Sunglasses FREE with your Midnight Flyboy Watch!

Call now to wear the Stauer Midnight Flyboy 1916 Watch for only $149 and we’ll include a pair of aviator-style sunglasses (a $99 value) FREE! You’ll get this remarkable watch for 50% OFF and pay nothing for the stylish shades. Legend of the Midnight Flyer. During WWI, Dieudonne Costes fought head-to-head against lead-spitting enemy planes over the Balkans. But in 1927, the crack French pilot faced a different kind of challenge: navigating pitch black skies over miles of empty ocean. Costes soared across time zones from Africa to Brazil to complete the world’s first (and fastest) non-stop flight across the South Atlantic. Inspired by his record-breaking midnight runs, we studied classic aviator timepieces

to match the vintage design of history’s greatest time machines. And then we made them even better. Expert watchmakers updated the movement for the 21st century, making it even more accurate and reliable than the originals. Worthy of an aviation legend. The Stauer Midnight Flyboy 1916 would have been right at home in Costes’ cockpit. It features a stunning black dial set inside a rose gold-fused case. Three tachymeters and a movable bezel measure speed and ascent and the chronograph functions allow you to measure elapsed time. Interior complications mark minutes and hours and include a 24-hour display. The watch is water-resistant to 10 ATMs and features a crocodile-embossed black leather band.

Satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. Take the Stauer Midnight Flyboy 1916 for a test flight. We’re confident that it will captivate you, but if for any reason it doesn’t, send it back within 30 days for a prompt and courteous refund of your purchase price (you’re welcome to keep the sunglasses as our gift). But keep in mind that time is of the essence… and a deal this good can’t fly forever.
