Emergency Mission The ‘civilian’ version of the Emergency. The Mission model is a second variation on the Emergency, the survival instrument synonymous with safety for pilots around the world. Thanks to its design which is more similar to that of a traditional chronograph, the Emergency Mission affirms its character as a more civilian version than the original. But beneath this tamer appearance, the Mission remains a formidably efficient instrument and the performances of its transmitter are equivalent to those of the distress beacons carried aboard aircraft. By way of comparison, the average range of it signal – on flat terrain or at sea – reaches 90 nautical miles for search plane flying at 20,000 feet. In optimal conditions, it can easily reach more than 200 nautical miles, meaning 360 kilometers! This masterpiece of miniaturization is housed in a sturdy steel case fitted with a screw-locked crowns and sapphire crystal glareproofed both sides. The Emergency Mission is water-resistant to 330 feet. Its chronograph is also able to measure short times to the nearest tenth of a second with split-time read off.
