This WW2 British Army Dirty Dozen watch is an accurate reproduction of the iconic 1945 general service timepiece.
Wartime MoD Specification
In 1945, the British Ministry of Supply commissioned twelve Swiss manufacturers to build the first custom general service field watch, designated Wrist Watch Waterproof (W.W.W.). This reproduction captures the classic black dial, outer railway minute track, sub-seconds dial at six o'clock, and wartime W10/417-6190 military dial markings used across European battlefields.
Modern Quartz Reliability
While original mechanical pieces require constant winding and delicate servicing, this watch runs on an efficient battery-powered quartz movement. The independent sub-dial drives the continuous seconds hand with high accuracy, while glow-in-the-dark hour dots and hands ensure clear reading during night exercises or living history encampments.
Field-Ready Construction
Built for daily wear and field reenactments, the watch features a 3 ATM splash-resistant casing and a stainless steel case back stamped with official issue markings. It comes fitted with an olive green canvas strap backed with soft lining for wrist comfort, and is supplied in a silver presentation box with a pull-out display drawer.
Complete your British Army uniform or field kit with an accurate wartime service watch ready for regular use.
