All about the Circula ProFlight Anthracite New
ProFlight – Modern Pilot's Watch with Technical Precision
The ProFlight is an exceptional German pilot's watch that combines classic design elements of historical pilot's watches with modern technology and clear design language. It stands for functionality, robustness, and the highest precision – developed for everyday use and inspired by the world of aviation.
Manufactured in Pforzheim, this timepiece combines German manufacturing quality with proven Swiss watchmaking artistry.
ProTrail/ProFlight – Update
Case and Steel Bracelet Updates:
- 1 mm flatter and more ergonomically shaped while maintaining a water resistance of 150m and 80,000 A/m anti-magnetism
- new, grippier crown for ProTrail
- slight curvature between the lugs, so that canvas straps and the new Pro steel bracelet fit flush with the case
- new stainless steel bracelet with quick adjustment in the clasp
Design with Aviation DNA
The distinctive design of the ProFlight incorporates typical features of classic pilot's watches and interprets them in a contemporary way. The faceted stainless steel case is sandblasted by hand and emphasizes the instrumental character of the watch.
Particularly striking is the dial: the individually designed numerals ensure optimal legibility and follow a clear design language that combines hard edges with precise curves.
A special detail is the circular structure in the center, which visually reflects the movement of the second hand and is reminiscent of the rotation of an aircraft propeller.
Maximum Robustness in Use
The ProFlight is consistently designed for durability. A special surface hardening makes the case and steel bracelet particularly resistant and ensures a scratch resistance of up to 1,200 Vickers.
The slightly curved, double anti-reflective sapphire crystal reliably protects the dial and guarantees clear legibility under all light conditions.
With a water resistance of 150 meters (15 ATM) and a screwed, partly luminous crown, the watch is also ideally equipped for demanding uses.
Anti-Magnetic Protection
Inside, a soft iron cage protects the movement from magnetic influences up to 80,000 A/m. This high anti-magnetism performance ensures reliable accuracy even in technically demanding environments.
Swiss Automatic Movement
The ProFlight is powered by the proven Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement in Elaboré execution, manufactured in Switzerland. The caliber stands for reliability, precision, and everyday usability.
The combination of automatic winding and high-quality fine regulation guarantees stable and precise timekeeping.
Comfort and High-Quality Materials
The watch is available with both a robust steel bracelet with quick adjustment and a high-quality canvas strap. Both variants offer high wearing comfort and emphasize the sporty-technical character of the ProFlight.
Hands and indices are coated with Swiss Super-LumiNova® and ensure excellent legibility in the dark.
Compact Proportions
With a diameter of 40 mm, a lug-to-lug length of 46 mm, and a height of 11 mm, the ProFlight offers a balanced size that is both sporty and suitable for everyday wear.
The proportions ensure a pleasant presence on the wrist without being obtrusive.

FAQs
About David from WATCHDAVID
My name is David, and I've been deeply involved with watches for many years – not just as a dealer, but primarily as a tester, photographer, and classifier.
Since 2018, I’ve been running WATCHDAVID as an independent watch project featuring reviews, videos, and real-world wearing experiences. Many of the watches you'll find here have been on my own wrist – often for extended periods.
WATCHDAVID.SHOP is intentionally personal. I only sell watches that I genuinely stand behind – no anonymous mass-produced goods, no dropshipping, no "quick trends." Experience, transparency, and honest assessment are paramount to me.
And yes: I am not an anonymous seller. I enjoy good food, sneakers, and photography – and I have a proven weakness for Kinder Chocolate.
If you have any questions or are unsure, feel free to contact me directly. I will respond personally.
Shipping & Insurance
Within Germany and the EU, shipping is free of charge. Shipping is handled by DHL and insured up to €500, €2,500 or €25,000, depending on the watch's value. The watches are therefore always sufficiently insured.
You can find the delivery time in the description and/or below the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after an order is placed, while others are brand new and, for example, will only be available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...
Revocation & Return Shipping
You can revoke your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.
I will cover the return shipping costs for you.
IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself; I will send you the free return label.
To do this, please simply contact me. david@watchdavid.com
It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of any signs of wear. After a successful inspection, I will refund the purchase price to you. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.
Authenticity & Condition of the Watches
I guarantee that all watches I offer are exclusively new, original goods. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly state otherwise (e.g., so-called PHOTO WATCHES).
As an official dealer, I exclusively offer authentic products. These are offered in their original packaging, with a warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in a so-called Full Set. Some deliver more, some less...
Warranty & Service
All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which is usually two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.
Should a warranty claim arise, I will take care of shipping the watch to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and will also organize its return to you. In addition, I will handle all communication with the manufacturer, so you don't have to worry about anything.
Even after the warranty period has expired, I will remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.
No answer received?
You contacted me, via the contact form, about the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you didn't receive a reply?
Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and crazier and are sending more and more to spam.
I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it may take a little longer. As a rule, I reply within a few minutes or hours.
Something can also slip through for me. Or the technology isn't working as it should. Feel free to contact me again. david@watchdavid.com
Mechanics - Sometimes things can go wrong
Before I ship your order, I carefully inspect each watch for visible defects.
However, should a problem arise, such as a defect during transit, please inform me immediately. I will do everything in my power to find a quick solution and ensure your satisfaction.
My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
