Features

Aeronautical titanium

LIGHT AND FUNCTIONAL

The C-03 Horizon Austral 41 mm was designed as a light, robust and easy-to-wear everyday aviation watch. Its grade 2 titanium case ensures comfort, solidity, and discretion, while its sandwich dial with Super-Luminova BGW9 ensures clear readability, even when the light fades. Its aircraft turbine-inspired crown clearly recalls its aeronautical DNA.

Military standards

A REAL INSTRUMENT

The C-03 Horizon Austral 41 mm retains the spirit of instrument watches with a construction designed for practical and intuitive use. Its bidirectional bezel, mounted on ceramic ball bearings, offers smooth and precise handling, useful for both a countdown and tracking a second time zone. A simple, reliable, and immediately usable function for everyday life and travel.

Numbered and exclusive

GLASS AND EYEWEAR

Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal

Internal anti-reflective coating

60-click bidirectional bezel (ceramic ball bearing system). Designed for time calculation: allows you to measure an interval or quickly calculate a duration related to navigation or fuel management.

DIAL

Sunburst blue sandwich dial, with indexes filled with Super-Luminova® BGW9 to provide exceptional readability day and night.

The rendering of Super-LumiNova varies depending on its color.
Lighter shades allow for faster charging and provide intense, long-lasting luminosity. Darker shades, on the other hand, produce a more subtle effect with a more moderate light intensity. Proper light exposure is essential to fully activate the luminescence.

The choice of color also responds to aesthetic considerations: it is often a question of finding the right balance between luminous performance and visual harmony. For watches whose specifications require maximum nighttime readability, white Super-LumiNova is generally preferred.

In this case, if we compare the intensity of the Luminova C-03, currently the most powerful on the market and therefore equivalent to 100% according to the LumiNova classification, the Luminova BG W9 used for this version offers a luminous efficiency of approximately 95%.

WATERPROOFING

Water-resistant to 100 m (10 ATM), the C-03 Horizon features a push-in crown that provides effective protection when closed. Easy to operate, it guarantees the case's water resistance and protects the movement from any intrusion of water, humidity, or external particles.

To avoid any damage due to water infiltration,use while swimming should be limited to watches with screw-down crowns, such as those designed for diving. Push-in crowns, used on aviation watches, can open accidentally, by getting caught on clothing for example. And in water, an opening crown is almost guaranteed to lead to water infiltration. Prevention is better than cure.

BRACELETS

The watch comes with an FKM rubber strap, which is soft, comfortable, and particularly durable.

Optionally, a silver-finish titanium bracelet with an adjustable deployant clasp is available at the preferential price of €85 incl. VAT instead of €130 incl. VAT if ordered separately.

A tool is provided with the titanium bracelet to allow you to adjust it to your liking. The bracelet is also equipped with quick-release spring bars, for simple and quick installation on the watch.

A video tutorial is provided to guide you in adjusting the titanium bracelet. No adjustments are made remotely.

Our straps are offered in one size, suitable for wrist sizes from 16 to 19.5 cm.

Other straps are available in the “Straps and accessories” section.
