The A-2 Bud Anderson Limited Edition pays homage to WW2 "Triple Ace" Bud Anderson. As a US Air Force, he flew his P-51D Mustang "Old Crow" above the skies of Europe hunting enemy bombers & escorting friendly ones. Credited with 16.25 Aerial Victories, Bud is the highest-scoring living ace of the USAF currently.
In collaboration with Bud Anderson, they've developed the A-2 Bud based on the watches he'd used throughout his career. Featuring a degraded black dial, the scheme is paired with patina indexes & hands for an enhanced vintage effect. Super Luminova has been applied to guarantee low-light visibility.
The caseback is one of their most complex work yet. On top you'll find a small serialized disc of actual P-51D Mustang metal donated. Below, they've engraved Bud's "Old Crow" P-51D. Signed by the man himself, the watch harbors both the legacy of the pilot & plane behind last living "WW2 Triple Ace".
Featuring a flat sapphire crystal & 5 ATM water-resistance, the A-2 Bud is built to carry this legend's story through time.
