The watch definitely looks like an earlier model as compared to the one my brother bought. The case seems a lil 'edgy' and old fashioned and its has an extra line of text on the dial which I quite like. The lume seems a lil crusty and the numbers actually have an orange glow to it although very faint. The hands have a green glow like the newer model. Another thing I like is that the second hand on my watch is red.
In the end, I'm glad to finally have a Pilot in my collection. The strap on it is soft, but like i said earlier, I think I'll get a NATO for it.

crazyfinger, congrats for pilot. This is a repainted dial of original watch. You could have got the original dial as well. In my opinion, repainted dial dose not have the charm & aesthetics of original one. Difference is evident in that comparison picture of both pilots. Letter engraving is not done so proficiently.
Thanks Sanky! :)
Also, thanks for educating me on the repainted dial. I had no idea. I thought since the case is a lil different as compared to my brother's Pilot, maybe the dial can be a lil different too.
