Celebrating Canadian Innovation
The Avro Canada CF-105 Arrow (the Arrow) was one of the most advanced aircraft of its era, helping to establish Canada as a world leader in scientific research and development.
On its first flight, 25 March 1958, the Arrow broke four different speed records. Over the next year, the five “Mark 1” Arrows would fly a total of 66 times. The more powerful “Mark 2” Arrows that were in development never flew. Despite the plane’s enthusiastic reception, both the Arrow and Avro would soon meet their end in complicated political battles and backroom deals..
Swiss Automatic Movement
Powered by one of the most ambitious Swiss Movements, the ETA 2824 uses five-bearing format for its winding rotor. Its self-winding, oscillating weight spinning movement provides up to a 38-hour power reserve. The ETA line dates back as far as 1792 with the majority of watches produced by luxury watchmakers. The Intrepid Diver by Whitby Watch Co.is a fine Canadian inspired timepiece that will will set apart your integrity. What defines you?
The Arrow is a Limited Run Pilot watch featuring some of the great characteristics of the AVRO. The Arrow has a Seiko NH35A Automatic Movement and a traditional Pilot Dial display or a Detailed Dial for your acquired taste.
