Our MK1® Chronograph has always drawn inspiration from military field watches, valued for their straightforward design, dependable performance, and easy readability. Now, we've refined that familiar formula with thoughtful updates that bring a more elevated feel to an everyday classic.

Military Inspired. Everyday Ready.

The newest MK1® Chronograph introduces rich green and blue sunray dials that add depth and sophistication while preserving the clean, functional layout that has defined the collection. The result is a watch that transitions naturally from casual weekends to more polished occasions without losing its field-watch character.

 

Precision When It Counts

Inside the 40mm brushed stainless-steel case is a meca-quartz chronograph movement—a hybrid movement that combines quartz-powered timekeeping with a mechanical chronograph module to deliver a smooth sweeping second hand.

It's a practical balance of modern performance and classic watchmaking character.

 

Designed for Readability

Field watches have always prioritized legibility, and the MK1® stays true to that heritage. Large Arabic numeral hour markers and hands with luminant in-fill make the time easy to read in changing light conditions, while the clean dial layout keeps distractions to a minimum. A vintage-style domed acrylic crystal completes the look, giving the watch timeless character inspired by classic military timepieces.

Everyday Durability Meets Refined Style

The brushed stainless-steel case is crafted from tarnish-free stainless steel, offering lasting durability while maintaining a clean appearance through everyday wear.

Each model is paired with a supple black natural leather strap sourced from Leather Working Group (LWG) suppliers, supporting more responsible leather production. Contrast side stitching—green on the green dial model and blue on the blue dial model—adds a subtle finishing touch, while quick-release spring bars make changing straps fast and tool-free.

 

A Field Watch for Today

Instead of trying to reinvent the field watch, the MK1® Chronograph simply refines it.

With elevated sunray dial finishes, practical chronograph functionality, trusted readability, and timeless military-inspired design, it's built for people who appreciate utility without sacrificing style.

For those who want one watch that feels just as comfortable on a weekday commute as it does on a weekend adventure, the MK1® Chronograph is ready for every moment. Because great design isn't just about choosing between function and style, but about making both feel effortless.
