Lug To Lug:
Case Execution:
Our case is finished in CuSn8 grade bronze with the sides and lugs executed with a brushed finish. Bronze will age and patina over time changing both colour and texture. The case can be brought back to looking brand new again by applying lemon juice. The side of the case is wrapped with red piping taken inspiration from the engine room of the Massey Shaw Boat. The back of our Dunkirk Watch has a matte black caseback ring featuring an illustration of the famous scene of Operation Dynamo on the beaches of Dunkirk back in 1940.
Dial Design:
The one-of-a-kind dial in bronze, black, and red was inspired by the unique twin telegraphs of the Massey Shaw, which are used to operate both the fire pumps and the main engines of the ship. The dial uses an aged champagne Super-LumiNova to look like a watch from the 1940's. Both STOP and LONDON illuminate on the dial in red to match the Massey telegraphs.
Caseback Design:
We Will Remember. A beautiful commemorative caseback features a scene of Dunkirk engraved on three-tone bronze, including soldiers waiting on the beach and the Little Boats. An original piece of the Massey Shaw engine used in the Dunkirk evacuation has been melted-down and poured into the silhouette of the Massey Shaw on the horizon of the caseback Operation Dynamo scene.
Strap Measurements:
Our fire gear and fire hose straps fit a wrist size between 5.5 and 9.5 inches. We do not currently offer straps for lug sizes outside of 20mm.
Strap Execution:
Our full range of watch straps have a 20mm lug width fitting all of our watch collections. Our upcycled fire gear and fire hose straps are finished with a silicon back that is stamped with ‘made from rescued materials’ and ‘William Wood’.
