STROND DC‑4 Automatic – Flight Black Dial (Limited Edition)
Introducing the STROND DC‑4 Automatic — a handsome vintage‑inspired timepiece built around the spirit of one of the most iconic aircraft of the 1940s: the Douglas DC‑4 Skymaster. This flight‑black dial version blends classic aviation styling with modern mechanical engineering, resulting in a watch that feels both rugged and refined.
Limited to just 1,945 pieces, the DC‑4 Automatic features a unique dial tag positioned at 6 o’clock, crafted from the actual skin of the historic Spirit of Freedom Douglas DC‑4 based in New Jersey, USA. This remarkable detail makes each watch a wearable piece of aviation history — a true collector’s treasure.
Powered by the reliable Seiko NH35A automatic movement with 24 jewels, hacking seconds, and a 40‑hour power reserve, the DC‑4 delivers dependable performance. With sapphire crystal front and back, a 316L stainless steel case, and a vintage oil‑tanned leather strap, this timepiece is built for durability, clarity, and everyday wear.
