For the true lover of special watches, it is often not only the quality and appearance of a watch brand that is important. When a particular watch brand or a specific watch has a special story with it, this is often highly appreciated by the watch enthusiast. It means that certain watches are also considered a collector's item and yet have that extra appeal. If you do not only consider yourself one of the lovers of a beautiful watch, but are interested in WWI and specifically in aviation, then we have a very special watch brand for you. We are talking about the Belgian watch brand RSC watches. Co-founder and designer Ronald Steffen himself is very fascinated by WWI and was inspired by this period when designing the designs for RSC watches. Every watch from RSC therefore carries a piece of nostalgia and history with it. RSC has succeeded in presenting a beautiful collection of watches that are not only a tribute to aviation, but are also very affordable.

RSC is a watch brand that may be less known, but is one of our favorite watch brands. The brand is very sympathetic and we like watches with accents and references to the past. At RSC you are then in the right place, because the brand knows how to make a perfect combination between contemporary technology and beautiful details of aviation from years ago.

RSC was the first to market a watch with a design based on the Sopwith Camel, a legendary aircraft that played an important role in WWI. After this design Ronald Steffen was inspired by many other aircraft with history. Aircraft like Mustangs and Spitfires, but also jet fighters, helicopters and cargo planes. RSC managed to grow into an icon among pilot's watches with his designs. The designs based on well-known squadrons (from England, France, Belgium and the Netherlands) that fought in WWI are characterized by oversized watch cases and squadron logos that are incorporated into the watches. The eye for detail with regard to these designs is therefore sublime. What makes an RSC watch even more special is that they are produced in only a very limited edition (250 pieces per series). With a watch from RSC you can be sure that you have a unique and original watch on your wrist.

The heart of RSC watches is formed by high-quality movements from well-known movement factories such as Miyota. Furthermore, the RSC watches use various high-quality materials such as hardened mineral glass, stainless steel and particularly beautiful leather. The watches from the different series from RSC all offer a clear dial and take you back to the days of yore with their traditional look. A nice series within the collection of RSC is the RSC Vickers F.B. 5 series. The watches in this series are equipped with a Miyota quartz movement and a stainless steel watch case. The strap is made of high-quality leather and offers a high wearing comfort. Also special is the "UK Royal Flying Corps" designation. The watches offer a water resistance of up to 50 meters. We also see nice extra functionalities, such as luminous indicators, a second hand and a date display. The watches close with a buckle clasp.

A second beautiful series within the collection is the RSC SPAD XIII series. This French series from RSC is characterized, among other things, by the dark gray dial in combination with a PVD black watch case. Here too we see a Miyota quartz movement and a high quality leather watch strap. These watches are labeled Aeronautique Militaire, which of course offers a nice extra accent. The RSC SPAD XIII watches are provided with particularly beautiful and unique accents on the dial. This makes these watches stand out in the collection and will certainly be appreciated by the real enthusiast.

The watches from the RSC Sopwith Hawker series are a very good example of the variety that RSC watches offer. The various beautiful accents that are incorporated in these watches make them absolutely unique. Due to the clear dial and oversized watch case, these watches are also very easy to read in terms of time and date. The watches are waterproof up to 50 meters and offer nice extra functionalities, such as luminous indicators, a second hand and a date display. The watches close with a handy buckle clasp.
All in all, the RSC watches are very original due to a unique combination of properties and they definitely have their own recognizable identity. In addition, the limited edition of 250 pieces per series makes these watches extra special and a highly sought-after collector's item. Do you have a passion for aviation and WWI in particular and do you have a preference for beautiful pilot's watches? Then viewing the RSC collection is definitely worth it.
