The highly evocative Flightmaster name was first mentioned by OMEGA
in 1956-57, but it was not until the late 1960s that it was used to
designate an incomparable watch, initially intended for aircraft
pilots. At the time, it was regarded as the watch industry
equivalent of the Swiss army knife, meaning the ultimate
professional instrument. The aesthetically and technically
remarkable OMEGA Flightmaster symbolises a period rich in
technological and design breakthroughs. Produced over a short
period and relatively little known until now, it nonetheless
enjoyed exceptional development and an outstanding destiny, notably
on the wrist of Soviet cosmonauts in the 1970s. Revealing the
entirely unknown and remarkably rich story for the first time, and
based on their own methodology, the authors of the successful
Moonwatch Only book dedicated to the OMEGA Speedmaster, provide a
comprehensive account of the many variations and evolutions of the
different Flightmaster models. The result is an essential reference
work for all passionate brand enthusiasts and collectors.
