The Devil's In The Detail

The Spirit takes on the traditional “Flieger” style aviation watch, but applies a raw aluminium aesthetic, inspired by the Spirit of St. Louis aircraft that carried Lindbergh over the Atlantic. The design of the numerals on the Flyer also takes direct inspiration from the altimeter from the R34 airship, with the tangential 4-8 numbers.

The Spirit features sword-profile hands with high-contrast paints to maximise legibility and ease of time-telling. Each sub-dial features one of two hand styles - the running second hand matches the main hour and minute hand finish, whilst for the Chronoscope functions, the sub-dial and timed second hands are painted in a separate style to differentiate the two functions of the Atlantic timepiece. It’s subtle and perhaps, to some, imperceptible. But it’s there for a reason, and that’s the Marloe way.

Dial Details

Radial sub dials at 3 and 9 complement the sleek dial, and a subtle yet eye-catching date window completes this classic design.

Superluminova

The Spirit also features glowing markings by way of Superluminova C3 luminescent paint - which lights up like a cockpit dial.

Dual-finished Case

Faceted bezel meets brushed, angular edges and brightly polished, smooth steel surfaces; the design of the case allows the Atlantic to nestle into the wrist thanks to the aggressively angled lugs, each one faceted to catch the light.

Powerhouse

The inimitable, beefy powerhouse that is the NE88a offers both a power reserve of 45-hours and a timing mechanism built within the chassis to give a 12-hour chronoscope function.

“My wife bought the Spirit for me as a present, a wonderful surprise. This is the latest of many Marloe watches I'm proud to own. The quality is incredible & the styling amazing.”

—Alan L.

“To say this is a beautiful watch would be an understatement, it is in truth a stunning timepiece both in aesthetics and function - a truly classic pilot's watch.”

—John J.

“I had been admiring the Spirit for 10 months as I have quite small wrists and was concerned it would be too big. However although it is big, the dial itself suits a small wrist well.”

—Jan B.

Spirit of St. Louis

The Atlantic range traverses flight through the ages, from the first one-way hop across the Atlantic Ocean by Alcock & Brown, to the first solo Atlantic crossing by Lindbergh.

The Spirit takes inspiration from the Spirit of St. Louis aircraft that carried Lindbergh over the Atlantic in 1927, on the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight from Long Island, New York, to Paris, France.
