Introducing the Geckota Airstream Frontier – Where Heritage Meets the Horizon

When Geckota first introduced the Airstream, it struck a chord with watch enthusiasts who admired its blend of vintage utility, compact proportions, and refined details. Now, that spirit of adventure continues with the Airstream Frontier - a new chapter in Geckota’s story of exploration, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

This latest evolution refines everything that made the original a favourite among collectors, adding new dial colours, fresh strap options, and subtle design enhancements that reflect Geckota’s ongoing commitment to progress through precision.

A Field Watch with a Sense of Purpose

The Airstream Frontier stays true to its roots as a vintage-inspired field watch, reimagined for modern life. The 36mm stainless steel case retains its perfectly balanced proportions, ensuring comfort and versatility on any wrist. A mix of polished and brushed surfaces gives the watch a dynamic presence - elegant in the office, resilient in the outdoors.

A fixed 24-hour bezel adds subtle functionality, a nod to the navigational heritage of mid-century field watches. Beneath a double-domed sapphire crystal, the textured double-layer dial gives depth and dimension, with crisp numerals and warm-toned lume that recall classic military timepieces.

Three Distinct Dials, Infinite Character

The new Airstream Frontier collection launches with three subtly different dial options, each with its own personality:

  • Black Textured Dial - understated and timeless, the quintessential everyday field watch.
  • Sand Brown Dial - a warm, vintage hue that channels the tones of desert exploration.
  • Blue Grey Dial - subtle blue tones, perfect for those drawn to nature and outdoor adventure.

Each colourway captures a different facet of the Frontier’s adventurous spirit, offering a versatile palette for enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Designed for Change - A Selection of Straps

True to Geckota’s reputation for quality watch straps, the Airstream Frontier will be available on a curated selection of options designed to suit any occasion. From suede leather straps that emphasise vintage texture to sturdy rubber and metal bracelet choices for a more rugged look, each combination transforms the Frontier’s character while keeping comfort and style at the forefront.

With its 20mm lug width, the Frontier also invites personalisation, making it easy to adapt your watch to different moods, seasons, or adventures.

Powered by Reliability

Inside the Airstream Frontier beats the trusted Miyota 9039 automatic movement, a Japanese calibre known for its smooth sweep and dependable accuracy. Combined with a screw-down crown and 100m water resistance, the watch is built for real-world wear - durable enough for exploration, refined enough for everyday life.

The Frontier Spirit - A Story in Every Detail

Turn the watch over and you’ll find Geckota’s anchor and serpent emblem embossed onto the solid case back. The anchor symbolises grounding and heritage - the foundation of every Geckota design. The serpent, in contrast, represents curiosity and evolution - the courage to move forward, to explore, to cross into new frontiers.

Together, they tell the story of the Airstream Frontier: a watch that celebrates both tradition and progress, designed for those who see every horizon as an invitation.

Limited, Distinctive, and Proudly Geckota

As with all Geckota watches, the Airstream Frontier will be produced in limited batches, each case back engraved with a unique serial number. This ensures every piece carries a sense of individuality and authenticity – values that define Geckota as a British watch brand built on craftsmanship, community, and creativity.

With its combination of vintage design, modern performance, and versatile style, the Airstream Frontier isn’t just another field watch. It’s a statement of intent – a timepiece for those who continue to move forward with purpose.
