Preorder price is $1,550

We expect delivery 6 months after our minimum order quantity is met and will provide continual updates once an order is placed.

With their ambitious price point, I have my reservations that they're going to meet their MOQ in a timely manner.


John Hadley pushed the boundaries throughout his professional life. Hadley was a respected inventor and mathematician. He made significant improvements in accuracy and power to the reflecting telescope for use in astronomy.

In 1730 John Hadley invented the Hadley Quadrant, a double reflector precision instrument used for nautical navigation. Hadley’s Quadrant was a trusted tool for explorers and adventurers alike to navigate their vessels safely to destinations around the world.

To commemorate his contributions to science and exploration Hadley Rille, a steep-walled valley that winds 100km across the surface of the moon, was named in his honor on the lunar surface. The rille was formed by ancient lava flows early in the Moon’s history and is believed to be one of the most geologically significant lunar regions.


The Flight Commander 43 is available with either a brown or black leather strap.
