Santurce | Pitirre™ True GMT — Automatic Pilot Watch

La Batalla — The Story Behind Our Pilot Watches

In Puerto Rico, two birds share the same sky: the pitirre—small, fast, relentless—and the guaraguao, the island's steady hawk. The pitirre chases something many times its size. The guaraguao holds its place, calm and unshaken.

From this came a saying passed down through generations:

"A cada guaraguao le llega su pitirre."

Every guaraguao has its pitirre. Nothing is too big to be challenged. One challenges. One endures. Both follow their nature.

This story inspired our Pilot watches, each one designed around the character of its bird. Part of our fully custom line, and because we're an island, built with 300 meters of water resistance.

The Pitirre True GMT captures the spirit of Puerto Rico's most fearless bird. Small but relentless, the pitirre is known for chasing predators many times its size. Built for those who refuse to be limited by borders, distances, or expectations, it combines the practicality of a true GMT with the determination of a bird that never backs down from a challenge.

Built as part of our fully custom line, it combines Puerto Rican design, true GMT functionality, and 300 meters of water resistance.
