Spirit In The Sky, The C8 Flyer Collection | Christopher Ward

The Supermarine Spitfire was, arguably, the most iconic military plane of the 20th Century and even today the unmistakable growl of its Rolls-Royce Merlin engine flying overhead evokes an emotional response in men and women of all ages. Unsurprisingly, therefore, when we wanted to create a series of timepieces celebrating Britain's unparalleled aviation history we turned to the Spitfire for inspiration. In the plane's cockpit we discovered the Smith's Mark II A clock which became the inspiration for the C8's dial language.
