Vintage world time watches built for jetsetters, pilots, and dreamers.
World time watches were born out of necessity in the golden age of air travel. Designed to track multiple time zones, these pieces allowed wearers to keep tabs on local time, home time, or global cities with ease. From rotating 24-hour bezels to inner city rings, these watches became essential tools for pilots, business travelers, and collectors with a global mindset. Brands like Seiko, Wittnauer, Bulova, and Omega offered innovative takes throughout the 1960s and 70s, often pairing world time functions with automatic or high-beat movements. Today, vintage world timers capture the spirit of international adventure—mechanical reminders of when travel felt like magic.
