Frequently asked questions

Is the Halda Race Pilot nickel-free?

No. At least one part that touches the skin is steel, usually the caseback or the clasp, and steel carries nickel, so the guide does not list it as nickel-free.

What grade of titanium is the Halda Race Pilot?

The maker confirms titanium but does not publish a grade. The caseback is sapphire.

What size is the Halda Race Pilot?

The case is 45 mm across and 17.5 mm thick. It is water resistant to 100 m.

How much does the Halda Race Pilot cost, and is it available?

It is in production, at a list price of $10,030.
