Watch Models
44mm tactical
The Tactical watch is 44mm case (49mm with the crown). The case thickness is 16.50mm. From lug to lug is 54mm. And the strap width is 23mm. It is heavy and beefy, and is constructed of 316L surgical grade stainless steel. It uses scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass, and a screw-down crown & caseback to offer a water depth rating of 300 meters (1,000 feet).
The case comes in 4 variations: stainless / pvd-black / stainless with black / black with stainless. The watch comes mounted on a black leather strap with choice of stitching color.
We offer the option to engrave on the edge of the case with a selection of quotes, or enter your own text.

Tactical Movement
The watch is powered by Swiss Ronda 515HC Quartz (battery powered) movement. The battery should last about 2-3 years and then simply send it in for a quick battery swap, and perhaps an overhaul service to remove the years of scratches and marks your timepiece received along the journey.
And we offer an upgrade to the 10-year battery version movement by Ronda for $125.
Automatic Upgrade:
You can upgrade your timepiece to the Swiss ETA 2824-2 Automatic mechanical (self winding) movement, with 25 jewels for $415. This is the same style of movement as found in Rolex, Omega, Breitling. The automatic movement offers a few additional hand styles, including the Mercedes / Sword / Modern / Ploprof hands (we will send you visuals of each style when we're creating your mock-up).
An Automatic is another term for “self-winding”, meaning the watch winds itself using a rotor weight inside the timepiece which oscillates to apply tension on the mainspring of the movement through the random motion of the watch owner’s arm. This movement does not require a battery, but does require manual winding every few days using the crown to fully “charge the mainspring” and increase the timepiece’s accuracy because it’s running at full power. You should send your watch in for routine service every few years, to check and replace gaskets - just like your precision firearms, which you routinely clean and oil, a mechanical timepiece requires this care as well.
Edge Text ENGRAVING
Personalize the case edge of your Tactical watch with a choice of sayings, or add your own text.
42mm Classic
The Classic watch is a 42mm case (46mm with the crown). The case thickness is 14mm. From lug to lug is 50mm. And the strap width is 22mm. The watch is water depth rated at 300 meters (1,000 feet).
The case is 316L surgical grade stainless steel. The glass is sapphire crystal. The bezel is a uni-directional bezel. The crown and caseback are screwed down, ensuring the depth rating.
The case comes in 2 variations: stainless / dlc-black. The watch is mounted on a black leather strap with white stitching and Pre-V buckle. We offer a solid metal bracelet as optional upgrade for $310.
