Tockr D-Day C-47 Watch

Tockr has released a new watch for its C-47 Collection that is both unique and goes towards a good cause The Tockr D-Day C-47 Limited Edition is a collaboration with the Commemorative Air Force to donate money towards the restoration of a historic C-47 aircraft known as That's All, Brother - the airplane known for leading the D-Day invasion of Normandy As a quick note, this isn't the first time we've covered watches that use salvaged metals for watch dials and other parts - the Danish brand REC, for example, is more or less based on this concept.

The Tockr D-Day C-47 instantly reminds me of the Oris Big Crown D.26, a similar collaboration with Hangar 13 for a limited edition watch and aircraft preservation I'm enthused to see watch brands stepping up for causes, and this is a great fit for Tockr being newer to the industry and an aviation-themed brand Even though the Tockr D-Day C-47 doesn't include the dial plate design, I don't imagine it'll be any less thick than its C-47 siblings.

The watch features a sapphire crystal and fits well with the military green fabric strap that the watch comes on. . Source
