Swiss Limited Edition
Automatic Retrograde
Encased in a high grade titanium case, complete
with a turret and a sponson (side gun), the SP-1 Landship takes you
back to the mean, heavily armored war machine first seen thundering over
barbed wires and trenches in WWI.
First crafted and shown to the media and trade buyers at Baselworld, the final and finer version of the SP-1 Landship is finally
available!
The SP-1 Landship’s turret contains a 3-dimensional Wandering Hour Drum,
allowing the wearer to read the hour in an upright manner by looking
inside the turret, which is different from the normal way of reading
time on a flat plane. The Retrograde Minute complication can also be
viewed in a similar upright fashion. The sponson on the side doubles up
as the winding crown of the watch. The SP-1 Landship’s distinctive shape
and function also means that the manufacturing process is different
from the conventional means of watch-making, thereby pushing the
boundaries of watch design and manufacture to new limits and setting a
new benchmark for other watch makers to pursue.
The “engine” that powers this amazing machine is Azimuth’s own in-house
modified 28,800 vph Swiss-made “X-1” retrograde minutes and wondering
hour movement. And because it is modified in-house, this movement is not
available to other Swiss watch manufacturers.
Each watch will have its unique serial number, etched on a loose plate
on the left side of the Titanium case and bolted only when the watch is
delivered – a first for the industry too.
The Landship is not the only innovative design from Azimuth that draws
inspiration from objects not normally associated with watches; previous
Azimuth models included a Lamborghini inspired SP-1 TBT and the
Robot-shaped Mecha-1 Mr Roboto and the ever popular SP-1 Spaceship;
modeled after a Spaceship of course!.
There will only be a limited production of 100 SP-1 Landships.
