The Rolex Replica Watches Spezialuhr fur Flieger, or "Special Watch for Pilots", was first produced in 1936.
Rudolph was a great pilot and all three brothers excelled at it. Together, Grainger-Herr (and I) began to see Rudolph and his brothers as modern-day Rudolph. These men were gentlemanly in sport and took to the skies to find inspiration. Men who lived extraordinary lives and would not mind getting in a plane to go to a black-tie party on a country estate. Men whose lives were full of romance, elegance and adventure. Men like Howard Hughes and Charles Lindbergh inspired gentlemen aviators. We realized that the watch had to be launched with a carefully selected collection of "Gentlemen Aviators-themed" clothing.
