The watch is made by Rodania under contract to the RCAF. The dial features the iconic layout specified by the Canadian Air Force and utilized by any supplier including Omega and Breitling.

Its actually interesting that this watch as is sits is identical to the Breitling model supplied to the RCAF other than the case back in not stamped Breitling Watch Co.
