A Timeless Blend of Classic and Modern
Inspired by 1940s British military watches, this timepiece merges vintage aesthetics with a modern update for today’s style. The clean, slim indices enhance visibility without compromising elegance, making it suitable for business or formal settings. Its rugged, refined design embodies a mature style that’s versatile, perfect for those seeking a high-quality, sophisticated look.

Built for Tough Environments with Quality in Every Detail

Crafted to endure harsh conditions, this military watch features a screw-down crown and screw-back case, ensuring 100M water resistance. The sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating enhances readability, while the 316L stainless steel case provides superior strength and durability. Each element is designed with resilience and longevity in mind, making this timepiece a reliable companion in any setting.

A Watch That Only Gets Better with Time

This military watch is designed to age beautifully, gaining character with every scratch. Unlike luxury watches that demand careful handling, this piece invites you to wear it freely, adding a unique patina that enhances its appeal—like a favorite pair of jeans. Enjoy it without worry; this is a watch made to be truly lived in.

Style Luminous Details
The watch features old radium-colored Luminova on the Arabic numerals and hands, creating a warm, amber glow for a retro, aged appearance. This carefully designed color mimics the look of antique radium, giving the watch a nostalgic charm. Note that the added vintage hue softens the luminosity, enhancing its classic aesthetic.

Classic Design

The dial features three-dimensional Arabic numerals and a “railway line” minute track encircling the outer edge, evoking a timeless, vintage feel. These details enhance the watch’s classic, refined aesthetic, reminiscent of heritage military designs.

Premium Sapphire Crystal with Anti-Reflective Coating

Crafted from high-grade sapphire glass, the watch’s crystal offers exceptional scratch resistance and clarity, commonly found in luxury watches and optical instruments. The anti-reflective coating reduces glare and enhances light transmission, ensuring optimal readability of the dial in various lighting conditions.

The leather belt is made of high-quality Italian leather.

The strap is made from premium Italian leather, carefully tanned to preserve its natural, pure texture. Each piece develops its own unique color and subtle variation, ensuring that every strap is one-of-a-kind.

Ideal Case Size for Comfort and Style

While many overseas military watches feature larger cases (40mm or more), KNIS has crafted a 38mm case to suit slimmer wrists, ensuring a comfortable fit with a refined look. This thoughtful sizing balances military style with elegance, making it versatile for a range of wrist sizes. (Model’s wrist circumference: 16.5cm)

Versatile Design for Any Occasion

With its simple and timeless design, this watch effortlessly transitions from business to casual settings. The sophisticated, understated face complements any style, making it a piece you’ll reach for year after year. Its elegant design adds a touch of refinement, giving your wrist a polished, mature look.

Care & Maintenance

To keep your watch performing at its best, we recommend avoiding strong impacts, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to moisture unless your watch is designed for water activities. After exposure to salt water, rinse the watch gently with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth.

For mechanical watches, regular wear helps keep the movement running smoothly. If the watch is not worn often, manual winding may be needed depending on the model. Quartz watches may require battery replacement over time.

Leather straps should be kept away from excessive water and humidity to preserve their appearance and longevity.

Because care recommendations can vary by brand and model, please refer to the manufacturer manual included with your watch for detailed operating instructions, water resistance guidelines, and service intervals.
