Military aviation fills our imagination with romance, adventure and derring-do, but it is the transformative democratisation of civilian aviation that opens new horizons by bringing peoples and goods closer together on our spinning planet.

Editor’s Note: As a GMT-Master II owner I’m a sucker for stories about any Rolex GMT models. It’s a kinship that’s formed when you buy into a brand, and then a model.
