The Mikoyan Flight Watch is a stunning timepiece. The collection is a tribute to the invaluable contribution of Artyom Mikoyan, a distinguished aeronautical constructor. We made this watch to honor his legacy and the bravery of the pilots who fought alongside him. The watch features a durable Bronze case and a unique skeleton dial that gives a glimpse of the movement below while retaining an easy-to-read design with baton hour indices and 0, 8, and 4 hour markers. Fitted with a comfortable leather strap, it's perfect for extended wear and will be a great talking point with others.

Bronze Watches
Everyone should have a Bronze Watch in their collection. Bronze is an alloy prized for its durability and resistance to corrosion. One of the most captivating aspects of a bronze watch is its ability to develop a rich, unique patina over time. As the bronze case interacts with the environment, it gradually takes on a warm, vintage-inspired hue that is entirely unique to each individual watch and its wearer
Unique Skeleton Dial
The skeleton dial is undoubtedly one of the most captivating features of the Mikoyan watch collection from Stalingrad Watches. This intricate design element not only adds a striking visual appeal but also pays homage to the engineering marvels that defined Artyom Mikoyan's pioneering work in aeronautical design.
Display Caseback
The Mikoyan Flight Watch features a display caseback, which is a transparent or exhibition-style caseback that allows the wearer to view the movement inside the watch. This design choice was intentional, as it enables watch enthusiasts and owners to appreciate and enjoy every aspect of the timepiece. The view of the 21-jewel automatic movement in action can be mesmerizing and adds to the overall appeal of the watch.
Movement Specifications
We thought for a long time before deciding what movement this watch needed. We tested a range of different ones but landed on the Miyota 8215, a reliable workhorse movement that won't let you down. The 8215 caliber has 21 jewels, beats at 21,600 beats per hour and is also equipped with the ”Parashock Movement Guard”, so it will be protected on your most active days.

Direction Bezel
While the rotating compass bezel may not serve a specific functional purpose in modern timekeeping, it adds a distinctive design element that pays homage to the aeronautical heritage that inspired this collection. The ability to turn the bezel and align it with the desired orientation is not only visually appealing but also evokes a sense of adventure and exploration.
