MultiChron Pilot
Introduced in 1941
The Pilot, one of Gallet's most popular racing and aviation chronographs, is characterized by its 3 subsidiary registers, rotating 12-hour time zone bezel, and telemeter & tachymeter scales printed on the periphery of the dial. Powered primarily by Gallet's in-house Excelsior Park mechanisms, Valjoux calibre 72 movements were also installed when orders surpassed the company's movement production capabilities.
