This user-friendly watch offers a number of possible operations. The push-buttons on each side of the crown move the time forwards or backwards according to the direction in which one travels. The UTC+ push-button (Universal Time Coordinated), placed over the crown is used when travelling eastward in that it moves the time Audemars Piguet watches forward. When travelling westward, the UTC-pushbutton underneath the crown should be used. This complex system is made user-friendly by the bidirectional city disc, developed by VILLEMONT and unique to this brand. This device also allows the automatic correction of the date.
Actually, by using the UTC+ or the UTC-push-buttons, the date automatically follows the change of time zone. The co-axial crown allows setting the time when the watch has not been worn for a while and has stopped and its integrated push-button replica Blancpain 2850B.1130.64B watch allows setting the date. With a power reserve of 100 hours, this mechanical movement shows once again VILLEMONT's desire to be within the circle of the distinguished Houses of Haute Horlogerie.
The three hand watch includes a unique way of displaying the day of the week and the date. The day of the month is shown at 12 o’clock, while the days of the week display is at 6 o’clock. To go along with the Asian custom of expressing the day of the week in numbers, these have been added above the names of the week days, with the exception of Sunday, where the number seven is replaced by the brand-emblem stylized five-petal Blancpain 2850B.1130.64B watch flower. Clear and easy to read, the Airliner is a robust, rugged watch, reinforced by the prominent screws on the bezel. With sapphire crystals front and back, the nicely finished automatic movement is revealed, with the oscillating weight stamped with the inscription ‘Titoni of Switzerland’.
