Probably the most creative variation yet for the collection, this Olive Green dial looks & feels like a true A-11 from 1942, modernized for the XX1st century.The dial features a bright Olive Green pantone used on the "Frog Skin" M1942 Uniform used by US Marines in their Pacific Campaign. Meant to mimic the shiny light green foliage of tropical Asia, this limited edition brings some modern freshness to a timeless 1940s watch design.Based off an original A-11 weve bought & archived, the funky minute & hour indexes throw back to a time where these watches were literally hand painted. We've kept all of those micro-faults in this variation to keep the feel of what an original would have been.The case is probably where we've had the most creative intent. The main case body is sandblasted to remove any shine as any self-respecting field watch would. However, as a reference to the original shiny Chrome Plating most A-11s had back in the day, we've opted for shiny lugs.The Drab Green Canvas or Brown Nylon straps push the rest of the watch firmly into Field Watch territory. Built to be thick & tough with no fear of humidity or sweat.
