The history of the Mountain Wave Project that we sponsored tells the story of two courageous glider pilots who flew over Mount Everest (8848 metres) at icy temperatures as low as -46° and, together with the German Aerospace Center (DLR), undertook the first 3D measurement of the mountain, in order to identify better rescue routes for mountain climbers, amongst other things. The extraordinary Junkers automatic chronograph "Mount Everest", which was designed specifically for this project, has a dial so blue that it mirrors the sky that surrounds the highest peak on earth. This watch has a 40mm case, mechanic (self-winding) movement, and up to 100m water resistance. It also features SuperLuminova-treated digits/indices for easy readbility in the dark.
