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.
