Introducing the Howard Hughes FlyRacer Chronograph

The Howard Hughes FlyRacer Chronograph takes the aviation spirit of the original Hughes line and gives it a cleaner, sportier edge. With a slimmer 40mm case, tachymeter chapter ring and Seiko VK64 mecha-quartz movement, it’s built for everyday wear with a nod to the golden age of air racing.

A Sleeker Sports Chronograph

The FlyRacer has a slimmer feel on the wrist than the original Howard Hughes Chronograph, with applied indices, inset sub-dials and a sharp tachymeter scale around the outer dial. It keeps the character of the Hughes collection, but in a more refined, daily-wearable format.

Specifications & Key Features

Why the FlyRacer Resonates

Subtle Sophistication – Its thinner, smaller case softens the silhouette slightly without losing edge: perfect under a cuff or on a weekend outing.
Layered Depth – Inset subdials and applied indices give dimensionality; the tachymeter ring adds both function and vintage racing heritage.
Precision & Versatility – The mecha-quartz movement provides accuracy, the chronograph and 24-hour complications add utility, and water resistance ensures ruggedness.
Character & Colour – With several dial-and-case colour options, the FlyRacer becomes more than a timekeeper; it’s an expression of personal taste.

Each FlyRacer arrives in a bespoke Riley Watch Co presentation box, backed by a 5-year warranty and a 30-day, no-questions-asked return policy. Every piece is crafted and shipped from the UK, which means what you see is the price you pay—even for international orders.

Absolutely love this! The quality is way better than I expected for the price. It arrived super fast (only 3 days to my door), and it looks exactly like the photos—maybe even better in person. Already recommended it to two friends. Will definitely buy from here again!

This has quickly become one of my favorite things I own. It’s well-made, feels premium, and does exactly what it’s supposed to (and more). Shipping was quick, packaging was nice and secure, no damage at all. Customer service was also great when I had a quick question before ordering. 10/10, worth every penny.

I was a little hesitant at first, but wow—I’m so glad I pulled the trigger. It exceeded my expectations in every way: comfort, durability, style, you name it. Got here faster than promised, and it’s already getting tons of compliments. If you’re on the fence, just go for it—you won’t regret it!
