The brand revisits the legendary A-11 military watch model, delivering timepieces that are as dependable as they are timeless - sure to delight every fan of American watchmaking. From its Spec 2 Ameriquartz collection, we're proud to present this outstanding PV2-32-MIC-DBRK1 timepiece. It's the kind of watch that lets you stand out on any occasion, drawing on your natural masculine charm with effortless elegance. A refined, sport-chic addition, it will elevate your look day or night and prove a steadfast companion through all your adventures. The round case is crafted from stainless steel, finished with a sandblasted treatment and polished details that add an extra touch of charm. Designed for men, it wears comfortably and measures 32 mm in diameter, 10 mm thick, and 38 mm in length. It is fitted with an anti-reflective K1 mineral crystal in a double-dome shape, with a sapphire treatment that protects the dial against impacts and ensures excellent readability in all conditions. A crown sits at 3 o'clock with a knurled finish, offering easy grip for adjusting the hands at any time. On the back, the knurled-edge caseback is screwed down for a water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The case reveals a stunning round dial that enhances the watch's timeless elegance with a touch of softness and freshness. It delivers a clear, effortless time reading in any situation. Its white background is swept by two sword-shaped hands in gray that indicate the hours and minutes in both bright and dark conditions, thanks to their beige SuperLuminova coating. These are joined by a slender gray seconds hand. The hours are marked by twelve printed Arabic numeral indexes in black, also featuring a beige SuperLuminova treatment for excellent low-light readability. These are surrounded by a minutes railway track with classic graduated markings around the perimeter, punctuated by Arabic numerals.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by the Ameriquartz 6130 caliber, manufactured in the United States by FTS. Running on a battery with a life of 48 months, this high-quality quartz movement delivers precise, smooth hand motion in all conditions - giving you reliable readings of the hours, minutes, and seconds every day.

The Strap

The brand chose an Italian full-grain leather strap to enhance the vintage charm of this timepiece. It features a rich brown finish and is elevated by tone-on-tone stitching that gives it a more contemporary feel. Its textured surface delivers a stunning look on the wrist. Combining flexibility, comfort, and elegance, this strap gracefully follows the natural curves of your wrist and adds a touch of refined elegance to any outfit. It comes with a pin buckle crafted in stainless steel for a secure fit throughout the day. The lug width measures 16 mm.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 5 atmospheres, equivalent to 50 meters, this watch offers an entry-level introduction to water resistance. While not designed for bathing, swimming, or diving, you can comfortably forget to remove it in the shower. That said, our experts recommend keeping this timepiece dry to preserve its movement for years to come.
