NWC Sky Runner Pilot Chronograph - The Inspiration
April 9, 2025 marks 20 years since the film "Wings Under Water" premiered on Norwegian National TV. The film tells the story of the adventurous recovery of two German WW2 warplanes from Jonsvatnet in Trondheim. A Heinkel He 111 and a Junkers Ju 88 were recovered in an operation led by diver and watchmaker Espen Saastad.
Watchmaker Espen Saastad draws inspiration for his watches from his own experiences and expeditions. Join Espen at the Air Force Museum at Gardermoen where he meets Roar Glenne, former museum director.
This is the inspiration for the Norwegian Watch Company Sky Runner Chronograph.
With components from the planes, NWC is making 20 limited editions.
