Product Detailed Description

BR Factory Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special 45mm Automatic Watch

The BR Factory Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special follows a traditional aviation-watch layout with a large 45mm case, prominent Arabic numeral dial and leather strap.

This configuration is powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic mechanical movement and provides hours, minutes and central seconds.

Depending on the version, the watch is available with stainless steel, rose-gold-tone or bronze case styling. A sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating protects the dial, while a traditional leather strap and pin buckle complete the pilot-watch design.

45mm Pilot-Style Case

The watch features a substantial 45mm case, giving the Type 20 Extra Special a strong wrist presence.

Large case dimensions are characteristic of traditional pilot watches, where dial visibility and straightforward time reading are important parts of the design.

The larger diameter also provides additional space for the oversized Arabic numerals and broad time display.

Because 45mm is relatively large compared with conventional dress watches, actual wrist fit will depend considerably on individual wrist size and wearing preference.

Multiple Case Configurations

The Type 20 Extra Special is available in several exterior case configurations.

These include:

• Stainless steel
• Rose-gold-tone
• Bronze

Each material or finish gives the same basic pilot-watch architecture a noticeably different appearance.

The stainless steel version provides a neutral metallic finish, while the rose-gold-tone configuration creates a warmer visual character.

Bronze develops differently from both steel and plated surfaces because the metal can gradually oxidize and form a natural patina during regular use.

Bronze Case Patina

On the bronze case configuration, gradual surface oxidation is a normal characteristic of the material.

Exposure to air, humidity, skin oils and sweat can gradually darken the bronze or produce variations in its surface tone.

As a result, two bronze watches may develop different appearances depending on how frequently they are worn and the environments in which they are used.

This natural patina should not automatically be considered a material defect.

Arabic Numeral Dial

The dial uses a clear 1–12 Arabic numeral layout.

Large Arabic numerals are closely associated with traditional aviation-watch design because they provide straightforward hour identification across the dial.

The simple numeral arrangement also keeps attention focused on basic timekeeping rather than additional calendar or chronograph indications.

Miyota 9015 Automatic Movement

The watch is powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic mechanical movement.

For this configuration, the displayed functions are:

• Hours
• Minutes
• Central seconds

Automatic winding allows normal wrist movement to replenish the movement’s power reserve during regular use.

If the watch has remained unworn for an extended period, it can be manually wound before adjusting the time.

Mechanical accuracy may vary depending on movement regulation, power reserve, temperature, resting position and wearing habits.

Central Seconds Display

The Type 20 Extra Special uses a central seconds hand rather than a separate small-seconds sub-dial.

This maintains a straightforward three-hand dial arrangement and complements the large Arabic numeral display.

The absence of additional complications also keeps the visual structure relatively clean for a 45mm pilot-style watch.

Sapphire Crystal with Anti-Reflective Coating

The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating.

Sapphire provides high resistance to everyday scratches and excellent optical clarity.

The anti-reflective treatment helps reduce surface glare, improving visibility of the large Arabic numerals and hands under different lighting conditions.

Strong direct impacts against hard surfaces should still be avoided.

Leather Strap

The watch is paired with a leather strap, maintaining the traditional character of the pilot-watch design.

Leather provides a softer wearing experience than a full metal bracelet and visually complements the oversized case and aviation-inspired dial.

To preserve the leather, prolonged exposure to water, sweat, perfumes and chemical cleaning products should be avoided.

If the strap becomes damp, allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat.

Pin Buckle

The leather strap uses a traditional pin buckle.

The simple buckle design allows straightforward adjustment for different wrist sizes and fits naturally with the utilitarian character of a pilot-style watch.

50m Water-Resistance Specification

The supplied specification lists the watch with 50 meters of water resistance.

Actual water resistance depends on the condition of the crown, seals, crystal installation and overall case assembly.

Because this configuration uses a leather strap, prolonged water exposure should also be avoided to preserve the strap.

Professional pressure testing is recommended before intentional water exposure.

Wearing and Care Advice

Clean stainless steel and rose-gold-tone case surfaces gently with a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid aggressive polishing compounds, particularly on plated exterior finishes.

Bronze versions will naturally develop a patina over time. Avoid aggressive chemical cleaning unless the intention is specifically to remove this oxidation.

Keep the leather strap away from prolonged moisture, perfumes and chemical cleaners.

Protect the Miyota 9015 automatic movement from strong magnetic fields and heavy impacts.

Professional pressure testing is recommended before intentional water exposure.
