Every model is impeccably equipped, true to its era, and built with uncompromising quality - designed to deliver a one-of-a-kind experience on your wrist. With their bold designs and durability, watch lovers can't help but fall for their exceptional charm. Today, the brand invites you to discover the Dirty Dozen 45 "Patina" P-38-MBV, a proud tribute to the legendary "Dirty Dozen" series. This model features a round case crafted in brushed and polished stainless steel with a refined tone. Durable and solid, it measures 38 mm in diameter and 45 mm lug-to-lug, with a thickness of 11.80 mm - ideal proportions for men's wrists. A silver-tone screwed crown at 3 o'clock allows you to adjust all central functions. These are displayed on a dial topped and protected by a robust sapphire crystal - double-domed, anti-reflective, and perfectly legible from any angle. Finally, this model features a caseback ensuring water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

Expertly crafted, this patina dial ensures crisp, precise timekeeping. It sports an original design with a black background enhanced by a sandblasted finish. Two years in the making, it features aged-look pink markers that amplify the watch's vintage character. The outer ring reveals a minute track combined with geometric indices and pink Arabic numerals to display the hours. At the center, two hands indicate the time with precision - a long hand for the minutes and a short hand for the hours - both coated with a SuperLuminova treatment, also applied to the hour markers for reliable dark-condition legibility. They're complemented by an additional sub-dial at 6 o'clock featuring a small gray seconds hand for the small seconds. Minimalist and captivating, the dial is finished with the brand name below 12 o'clock as a signature.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by a Swiss-made automatic movement - specifically the L24 caliber from Landeron. Reliable and robust, it oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 vph and features 25 jewels, delivering a power reserve of 40 hours to drive the hands with efficiency.

The Strap

This model comes with two strap options selectable from the drop-down menu. Charming and comfortable, both feature a lug width of 20 mm and a gray tang buckle for easy adjustment.

The first, with its captivating look, adorns your wrist with elegance. Crafted in NATO fabric, it delivers a flexible and comfortable fit. In a vibrant green tone, it adds a lively edge to any outfit. Durable and versatile, it's ready for all your activities.

The second strap is crafted in bovine leather, offering undeniable suppleness for any occasion. In beige, it beautifully enhances the lines of your wrist and, with its minimalist touch, completes your look with elegance for a lightweight, comfortable everyday wear.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters. We're talking a genuinely water-resistant watch here! This fun, stylish timepiece is ready to dive into aquatic adventures with you. From puddles to the pool, it handles splashes without complaint - showers, baths, and lap swimming are all no problem. That said, our Ocarat watch experts want you to know that while this model is water-resistant, it is not suitable for diving (professional or recreational) and is sensitive to high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers locked during immersion.
