During World War II, the British War Department saw the need for a new general service watch suitable for the battlefields of Europe. They designated this, the Watch, Wristlet, Waterproof (W.W.W) and asked twelve companies to build it, among them was Timor. These twelve are known as the Dirty Dozen.

This year is the 75th anniversary of Timor’s legendary watches shipping to British troops. We will be marking the occasion with the release of the Heritage Field.

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

I won't be buying this but I do really like it. I'm just adding a bunch of links. You'll also find a few links to articles about the original Dirty Dozen watches on the Kickstarter page.
