Tropical dials are vintage watch faces that have naturally faded due to UV exposure and moisture, turning them into highly collectible, unique works of art. These weathered dials are highly collectible, and because no two dials age the same way, each piece is considered unique. We have developed a process to create aged and unique tropical dials, perfect for that vintage look with modern reliability. Each dial takes weeks of preparation and the result varies each time, which gives each watch its unique character. The watched pictured here is the one you will receive.

(Brand new tropical dial chronographs available here.)

The original 1970s Valjoux chronograph was issued to Royal Air Force, Royal Navy, Nuclear Submarine crew and also to BBC war correspondents; one in particular is still used in war zones across the globe to this day. Our latest iteration is water-resistant to 10ATM (100m), has a sapphire crystal and a Swiss automatic chronograph movement. Stainless steel case with fixed bars, screw-down crown, Swiss-made.
