Sopwith Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Arctic Sea GMT (41mm)

The northern coast of Norway was home to Germany’s highly specialized Eismeer unit of fighters, uniquely outfitted with cold weather gear and tasked with protecting the Arctic Sea lanes during World War II. Polar White with Ice Blue accents, the Arctic Sea Limited Edition of the Sopwith Aero Marquis Focke-Wulf Fw 190 comes with full face Swiss lume in mint blue.

The in-house case is made from the cockpit armor of an original Fw 190 fighter airplane, melted, forged and cast at the Sopwith Foundry in Houston. The Arctic Sea Limited Edition case was poured from the rescued steel plating that protected the pilot’s upper back and shoulders.

The Aero Marquis’ GMT function allows travelers to track two time zones, offset by a bronze screw-down crown and angled 24 hour chapter ring. With magnetic resistance to 4,800 A/m, water resistance to 200 meters and a functional azimuth bezel, the Aero Marquis is the perfect multi-sport adventure watch. The shock resistant caliber 2893-A2 Élaboré movement offers high grade accuracy and legendary Swiss reliability.

The Arctic Sea’s twin dots at noon signify an authentic Sopwith timepiece with a case that is guaranteed forever. The stitched, vintage strap is genuine Horween leather while the hands resemble the shape of the altimeter needle on an original Focke-Wulf fighter.

Sopwith watch cases are guaranteed forever against manufacturing and workmanship defects, cracking, breaking, lug failure or structural damage to the steel as determined by Sopwith Watch Company. Case warranty does not include cosmetic damage and scratching from normal use.

To submit a claim, send the complete watch to Sopwith Watch Company with a brief description of the damage. If a replacement is issued, it will be provided free of charge including re-assembly of the watch.

Due to the scarcity of historic steel, Sopwith may at its discretion substitute the case with one made from the steel of a different airplane/automobile/vehicle or replace the watch case with another model.
