On December 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright invented an idea that seemed impossible. It defied convention and it defied gravity. On that day, they developed their flying machine and sustained the first-ever human flight that changed the way the world viewed the open sky. From then on, innovation in the air evolved and early aviators used their watch to track distances, speed, altitudes and travel times. As airplanes grew more sophisticated, the wristwatch became essential equipment for military pilots and a necessary accessory among gentleman alike
