The Timor Heritage Field: A “Dirty Dozen” Watch is Reborn



The Timor Watch Company might ring a bell for certain collectors who are very focused on heritage military pieces. The brand has its roots in Switzerland in 1923, and rose to some prominence by the time they were commissioned to produce watches for the British military in the 1940s. As one of the ?Dirty Dozen? watch manufacturers who produced timepieces under strict specifications for the war effort, they?re a highly collectible brand and well known among a certain type of deep enthusiast. These watches, known as W.W.W. watches, were discreet, simple, field watches, produced specifically for military use, where watches worn by military personnel previously had to be retrofitted for military spec (we went deep into Dirty Dozen history for Worn & Wound here). Now, after many years of dormancy, a flirtation with the pocket watch market in the far east, and the re-establishing of the brand in the UK, Timor is back with a recreation of the field watch that is so key to their history.
