This watch is inspired by the military designs of the 1950s and 1960s. It features a box sapphire crystal that closely replicates the appearance of the original plexiglass. The movement is a sophisticated Ronda R 150 or equivalent, with 25 jewels and a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz). This high-precision movement offers a substantial 38-hour power reserve, ensuring reliable performance. Additionally, it is equipped with hacking and hand-winding capabilities for added efficiency and convenience.

Instead of the Tritium used in the 1960s, this watch employs Luminova. The main advantage of Luminova is that it does not deteriorate with age and is non-radioactive. The paint color mimics aged Tritium paint, and the encircled "T" is included solely for historical accuracy.

This watch measures 39mm in diameter and comes with a matching steel bracelet designed to resemble the style of bracelets used in the 1960s.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal: Many people ask about the advantages of sapphire crystal over the original plexiglass. Synthetic sapphire is the superior material for watch crystals due to its exceptional strength and resistance to shattering and scratching. These qualities make it highly appealing to military and security personnel, police officers, and individuals with active outdoor lifestyles—groups that constitute over 70% of our customers.

The original plexiglass crystals, made of plastic/acrylic material used in the 1960s, were prone to scratches and cracks and limited the watch’s water resistance. In over 90% of cases where clients experience cracked crystals, the watches have mineral glass or plexiglass. Even hardened mineral crystals do not match sapphire's durability under harsh conditions.

Sapphire crystals are heat-treated to eliminate internal stresses, enhancing their strength. They are then coated with two layers of anti-reflective material. Interestingly, sapphire crystal is now also used in the latest iPhones. Despite its higher cost, the superior quality of sapphire crystal justifies its use in higher-end watches.
