The No1 is the classic Airman, imo..it's the inspiration for other models, I believe..

Sure..the only differences are the case & dial colors..from left to right, the grey dial watch has a light grey colored PVD coated case..the cream colored dial has a bronze colored PVD coating, & the black dial watch has a medium grey colored PVD coating..highly recommended..

There was a variation with regular 12 hour time, and the purists with the standard 24hour dial.

Very nice trio! May it serve you well.

Purist is a 3 hand Airman/Chief which works on 24h bases-the hour hand goes around the dial once per 24 hours.
Non-purist or GMT has 4 hands where the main hour hand is like any other classic watch keeping track of time on 12h bases and GMT hand is a 24h hand.
