The Precision Behind Pilot & Driver™: Introducing the P&D Caliber 2110 Automatic Movement

At Pilot & Driver™, we set out to create a timepiece that blends exceptional craftsmanship with rugged dependability. As lifelong watch connoisseurs, we knew that delivering a truly outstanding mechanical watch required an in-house approach to movement development. The result is the P&D Caliber 2110, a high-performance automatic movement that rivals the industry’s giants in accuracy, durability, and aesthetics.

Powering Our Watches

The P&D Caliber 2110 automatic movement is the result of that dedication—powering our watches with a level of precision that rivals industry titans. Our engineers and watchmakers carefully crafted this movement to ensure it meets the highest expectations of enthusiasts and collectors alike. With its robust design and refined finishing, the Caliber 2110 is built for those who demand excellence.

Accuracy You Can Trust

Our rigorous testing of the P&D Caliber 2110 has yielded impressive results. Straight out of the box, without regulation, this movement achieves an average accuracy of ±9 seconds per day, with a full range of +11/-11 seconds. With expert regulation, this performance can be further optimized to meet even stricter accuracy expectations, ensuring reliability under real-world conditions.

Exhibition Caseback: A View into Precision

One of the standout features of our timepiece is its beautifully executed exhibition caseback. Unlike many automatic watches with small, unimpressive open-backs, ours offers an expansive view of the movement’s inner workings. Approximately 80% of the balance wheel’s full diameter is visible, providing an unparalleled look at the rhythmic motion of the escapement. The gold-toned movement, blue screws, and expertly brushed finishing make for a striking visual presentation—a true testament to the craftsmanship behind every Pilot & Driver™ timepiece.
