ALTITUDE AUTOMATIC - THE GOLDFISH CLUB EDITION
The Goldfish Club has one of the most remarkable histories in aviation. Founded during the Second World War by C. A. “Robbie” Robertson of P B Cow, the Club brought together aircrew who had survived ditching their aircraft and owed their lives to dinghies, life jackets and other Air Sea Rescue equipment. Its name reflects the story perfectly: “Gold” for the value of life and “Fish” for the sea. Members received the now-famous winged goldfish badge, and by the end of the Second World War, the membership was capped when 10,000 people had joined. More than eight decades later, The Goldfish Club continues to preserve the unique comradeship and stories of those who have survived “coming down in the drink.”
The Flyer Watch Company and The Goldfish Club have come together to create a special Goldfish Club Edition of our Altitude Automatic, celebrating this extraordinary aviation heritage. The watch proudly incorporates The Goldfish Club identity, connecting a modern aviation timepiece with more than 80 years of survival, courage and comradeship.
Inspired by traditional pilot’s watches, the Altitude features a 40mm stainless-steel case, sapphire crystal glass and a reliable Miyota (Citizen) automatic movement. Luminous hands and markers provide excellent readability, while a genuine leather strap with contrasting stitching completes its classic aviation character. Perhaps most appropriately for a watch carrying The Goldfish Club name, it is water resistant to 100 metres.
