The Traser H3 Aviator Watch offers one of the finest quality, most durable Swiss made timepieces that are the easiest to read in low light conditions and even total darkness. The Trigalight® is a self-activated and self-powered light source. It never needs recharging or servicing and runs independently from a battery or any other source of outside energy. It is 100 times brighter than any other illumination system and has a lifespan of approximately 20-years.
Nancy’s Notes: This is a good pilot watch because of its superior lighting technology, Swiss quartz movement, chronograph and bezel. Many times we are asked: “What is the purpose of a rotating bezel on a watch?” A rotating bezel can help with navigation by using the watch face as a sundial and determining a southerly direction with the help of the watch hand. It works like this. The hour hand points toward the sun and the angle between the hour hand and the 12 o’clock mark is halved. The angle bisector now points directly south. In the southern hemisphere, of course, north and south must be swapped.
