    pre-order now on kickstarter

    Normandie 1944 is a commemorative watch that carries tangible links to D-Day. The dial base is crafted from the steel of an authentic U.S. M1 helmet, while a capsule at 9 o'clock holds sand gathered from the Normandy beaches. The strap uses fabric from a vintage M-1928 haversack, and the caseback honors the five landing beaches, the U.S. Army emblem, the date June 6, 1944, and Eisenhower's words, The eyes of the world are upon you. Details include a golden line of fire across the dial and a second hand shaped like a parachute. Sapphire glass, 316L steel, and 10 atm water resistance round it out. Back it on Kickstarter today.

Our watches are far from ordinary - this innovative approach makes them truly one-of-a-kind, telling powerful and meaningful stories through their design.
