Graham is back with the Graham Chronofighter Vintage Nose Art Ltd. If you are at all known with the watch brand, the ‘out there’ inspiration is back as well.

No New York lofts or military aircrafts this time around like with the Graham Chronofighter Vintage Aircraft Ltd but the infamous nose art found on military planes from the 1940s. Nose Art, hence the name of the watch, were mainly pinup girls with names like Sally or Lilly to boost military moral.

Each execution of the Graham Chronofighter Vintage Nose Art Ltd is limited to 100 pieces

The specs aren’t too bad either for this latest addition to the Chronofighter family. Graham’s own (Valjoux based) caliber G1747 is a trusty automatic and the chronograph with the start/stop trigger is a nice addition and something different than a regular chronograph set-up.

But essentially, the pinups on the Graham Chronofighter Vintage Nose Art Ltd family are the only new thing on this watch. Each dial is sun brushed and painted with a pinup girl on the right and her name on the left on the either black or blue dial.

In total, there are four executions: Sally, Nina, Lilly & Anna. Each one is limited to 100 pieces and comes with a matching leather strap. Another plus, Graham finally lost the so-so jeans strap they offered on the recent Graham Chronofighter Vintage Aircraft Ltd.
