This particular piece is based on the Messerschmitt KR201 model, which is inspired by the design of racing car speedometers. We were very impressed by the watch itself, but we felt that some details could be tweaked a bit to allow the watch to stand out more. Especially the dial, which we believe is well-executed. Therefore, we had new dials manufactured at Aristo - in the same design, but we removed the Messerschmitt inscriptions and logos (from 12 and 6 o'clock), replaced the Messerschmitt inscription with the old Aristo logo, and simultaneously removed the date window. This resulted in a cleaner dial design that is more faithful to its original. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe had the watch case surface-treated - by sandblasting.

Through successive innovation of the KR175 model, the KR200 model was developed in 1955. This became a legend. From the design itself, it was evident that aeronautical engineers had worked on the designs. The lines of the cabin clearly referred to the lines of aircraft. The doors, through which one entered the vehicle, had the same opening mechanism as was common in aircraft of that time.

In 1937, Messerschmitt was appointed professor. Under the Nazi regime, he was entrusted with the development and production of combat and fighter aircraft; he developed, among others, the record-breaking Me 209 and the Me 262, the first mass-produced aircraft with a turbine jet engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #bd8649;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA visit to the manufactory \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn July 2019, we had the opportunity to personally visit the Aristo factory.

Aristo equipped the watches with a vintage Record movement from the 1970s. Aristo managed to secure several dozen of these movements (unused, of course, but still disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, and reassembled to ensure maximum functionality and accuracy), which they decided to use for several models in the Klassik series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe history of the Record brand dates back to 1903, when the company began producing pocket watches fitted with their own movement. Incidentally, Record pocket watches became the first watches with a Swiss movement officially used on American railways. In 1961, the Swiss company Longines bought a majority stake in the company. \u003cspan class=\"jCAhz JxVs2d ChMk0b\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\"\u003eRecord continued to produce its watches, with some watches bearing the \"Longines-Record\" designation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Because Record calibers were considered truly high-quality, Longines \u003cspan class=\"jCAhz JxVs2d ChMk0b\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ryNqvb\"\u003erenamed some of them and incorporated them into their own watches.

All watches are assembled in the company's workshops in Pforzheim, Germany. The quality of craftsmanship is first-class. Yet, the price remains at a very favorable level. The same applies to the steel braided bracelet – the so-called Milanese strap.

At that time, the company focused on producing watches and watch cases. In 1934, Julius Eppe acquired the company Rohwerkfabrik Maurer \u0026amp; Reiling, and from then on, the company also began producing its own hand-wound movement known as JE Urofa 56. The \"Aristo\" brand began to be used from the mid-1920s and was registered on January 31, 1936, at the former \"Imperial Patent Office.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #bd8649;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"caret-color: #bd8649;\"\u003ePresent Day\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVandaag, Arsito is in the hands of Mr. Hansjörg Vollmer (since 1998, when the Epple family sold it to him), grandson of the founder of the Vollmer manufacture of steel watch bracelets (Vollmer, Evvo, New Line), which was founded in 1922 and maintained business relations with Aristo as early as 1927.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #bd8649;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"caret-color: #bd8649;\"\u003eInnovation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder Hansjörg's leadership, the brand, in addition to producing models typical of Aristo, also focuses on innovation.
