The DD-45 "Tropical" is the result of two years of development with our dial supplier. The deep brown dial coloration combined with the patina indexes & hands is meant to reference a rare kind of aging where the black dial paint used would morph into a dark brown as the watch was exposed to sun & humidity over the years. The result on the DD-45 of our "tropicalization" is a truly unique dial that looks like some rare Dirty Dozens today; 80 years after they were produced. It serves to highlight the true age of the originals and, the wear & tear that they have gone through while being used in the field by actual armed forces.
Designed as a homage to the original Dirty Dozen designed for the British War Office to equip the British Army with a standardized high-performance field watch, the DD-45 surpasses the originals spec wise bringing it to the XXIst century. Originally meant to be "Waterproof" we've modernized the initial design requirements. The DD-45 comes with 10ATM water resistance & a screw-down crown - helping to keep things safe in wet conditions. The double domed sapphire crystal provides best in-class scratch resistance further improving the longevity of your DD-45.
Since all twelve original manufacturers produced their own Dirty Dozen in Switzerland, we felt it made sense to follow the historical origins of these watches. We've therefore equipped our Dirty Dozen with the Landeron L24 Swiss-Made movement. Featuring 28,800 BHP & 25 Jewels - you'll be getting a smooth second hand movement & high-precision; ready for use in any condition.
