1945 Record W.W.W. 'Dirty Dozen' British Military 36mm
Here we have a 1945 Record W.W.W. 'Dirty Dozen' British Military 36mm. As a military-issue watch, it was part of the 12 brands commissioned by the British Ministry of Supply during WWII. The round case is crafted from chrome-plated brass with a solid stainless steel back, measuring a versatile 36mm. It fits comfortably on your wrist thanks to its tapered lugs, 46mm lug-to-lug length, and 12mm case thickness. True to its military specifications, the watch features 18mm fixed spring bars for maximum security in the field. A smooth bezel holds a domed crystal securely over a matte black dial. An outer minute rail track surrounds bold Arabic numerals coated in luminance, complemented by matching lume-filled hands and a prominent sub-seconds register at 6 o’clock. At 12 o’clock, you will find the Record motif alongside the iconic British Broad Arrow (pheon), denoting government property. On the reverse, the screw-down steel case back clearly displays the broad arrow and the official "W.W.W." designation, which stands for Watch, Wrist, Waterproof. Inside beats the manually wound Record Calibre 022K, a Swiss 15-jewel movement operating at a reliable, leisurely pace. Celebrated for its robust construction, this movement was purpose-built to withstand the harsh conditions of wartime service. The watch comes paired with a quality Bark & Jack 18mm NATO strap and a classic steel pin buckle.
