Vortic Watch Company has just unveiled its 6th Annual Military Edition Watch for Veterans Day 2024, and collectors are in for a treat! This limited-edition release is more than just a wristwatch—it’s a unique opportunity to own a true piece of military history.
Crafted from WWII Bomber Timepieces—Only 50 Available!
The 49 mm wristwatch features a dial, hands, and movement originally built for the U.S. Army Air Corps by Hamilton Watch between 1942 and 1945. These Master Navigation pocket watches were used by navigators on bomber aircraft like the B-17 during World War II, making each Military Edition watch a link to history.
A Modern Masterpiece with Vintage Soul
The first 20 wristwatches come with lume added to the numerals, five-minute markers, and hands—giving them that vintage glow, courtesy of lume expert Kent Parks. These watches are stamped with U.S. GOVT. and priced at $9,500 each. The remaining 30 watches retail for $8,500—all available first-come, first-served.
“I’m biased, but this is simply the coolest watch on earth,” says Vortic co-founder R.T. Custer. “With actual WWII history inside and a true American-made heritage, it just can’t be beat.”
Handcrafted Straps to Match the Story
Each watch comes with two handcrafted straps by Greg Stevens—a Swiss military canvas strap with olive green backing and a soft black leather strap with vintage-style stitching. It’s all about honoring the craftsmanship and heritage behind these extraordinary pieces.
Jack Ryan Connection—From Screen to Auction Block!
This fall, Vortic’s Military Edition watch even made its way to the set of Amazon Prime’s series Jack Ryan. Both John Krasinski and Michael Kelly wore Vortic watches during filming, and now two of those iconic timepieces will be up for grabs! Christie’s will auction Kelly’s watch and one of Krasinski’s watches on December 9 in New York City, while the other Krasinski watch will be featured in a Vortic customer sweepstakes.
A Collectible Tribute to Courage and History
Want to own a piece of history? These limited-edition watches not only celebrate Veterans Day but also honor the courage and legacy of those who served during WWII. Don’t miss your chance to own one of just 50 pieces—secure a timeless tribute before they’re gone!
