ABOUT THE COLLECTION
Inspired by the Legend Combining a resolutely vintage style with Blancpain's latest technical advances, the Air Command collection revives the history linking the Maison to 1950s military aviation.In keeping with their forerunner, renowned as the most sought-after military chronograph of its time, the Air Co mmend models are distinguished by their sophisticated design and offer two separate timekeeping features: a flyback chronograph function, and a countdown bezel.In the 1950s, the United States Air Force was looking for a high-precision chronograph capable of meeting deMending specifications. Blancpain, which had already won over the American Navy with its Fifty Fathoms diver's watch, drew inspiration from it to develop a chronograph for the US Air Force. This timepiece was offered to American military pilots through the distributor Allen V. Tornek, for whom Blancpain is thought to have created a dozen watches as prototypes. The total production of Air Co mmend chronographs was probably very limited.
