Description
This is an automatically translated text.
The 88 Flak watch by Terra Cielo Mare is dedicated to the famous 8.8 cm Fliegabwehrkanone anti-aircraft gun nicknamed Flak 88.
It was one of the most successful cannons of the Second World War, widely used even after World War II.
It was invented and produced in Germany during the First World War as a means of defending the cities on the border with France, and its continuous improvements led it to achieve great success and to be adopted by many armies, including the Royal Italian Army.The Flak 88 was characterized by a very high versatility, but found its highest expression in the use as anti-aircraft. And it is from this use that Terra Cielo Mare was inspired in the design of this watch whose dial recalls the instruments used to calculate the firing of objects in flight.The 88 Flak by Terra Cielo Mare, first released in 2016, is a watch in a limited series of 88 pieces. The dial is in fact made with an original bullet from a Caliber 88, which we found following a long search that seemed hopeless. The very particular design faithfully recalls the instruments used by the army to
the calculation of the shooting of bullets and related instructions. By means of a visual support instrument and calculating on an 18 second basis the time in which the object moved, it was possible to understand its speed and distance and therefore its elevation. The case is made of steel with pvd treatment, with bezel and flat bottom in phosphorous marine bronze.The 88 Flak has a very refined dial. Made from an original anti-aircraft bullet, it faithfully reproduces the instrument used by the army to calculate the shot of bullets. The spiral reproduced here, flanked by an appropriate visual instrument, was in fact used to calculate, on an 18-second basis, the time with which the object moved, thus its speed and distance, and therefore its elevation. On the back of the 88 Flak is engraved a scaled pattern that recalls that inside the cannon barrel seen in perspective.Producing watches in limited series is a distinctive characteristic of Terra Cielo Mare, but these are never arbitrary limitations, but rather natural, as in the case of the Flak 88. The watch is in fact made with the original bullet of a Calibre 88, considered unobtainable by many experts encountered during this research.
