The watch, which is powered by a modified version of ETA's 7750 chronograph movement, is the first in our entire collection to have a high-tech ceramic case, making the C1000 Typhoon light yet virtually indestructible.

Built around a titanium sub-frame for additional strength, the ceramic used is one of the most advanced composites in the world and at seven times stronger than steel, only a diamond will make a mark on the durable and highly scratch-resistant surface.

The charcoal black dial, which uses the font of the Typhoon's Head Up Display (HUD) for the SuperLuminova numerals, carries the RAF's low visibility, baby blue and salmon pink roundel at 6'O'clock, and even the outlines of the chronograph eyes have been subtly indented with the shape of the planes after-burners.

The dramatic delta-wing shape of the aircraft is captured on the counter-balance of the second hand and the distinctive small forward wings, known as canards, at the tip.

The trademark Christopher Ward deep-etched engraving on the reverse captures the plan of the Typhoon perfectly and the ensemble is finished superbly with a high density webbing strap and titanium buckle.

For those of us who dream, the C1000 is as close as we will ever come to being a fighter pilot!
