The Service Watch Black Canvas from Praesidus is a modern reimagining of the historic A-11 Spec watch, initially developed in 1942 by the US Military. Known for its simplicity and legibility, the A-11 was the first military watch to feature a sweep second hand and was produced by Elgin, Waltham, and Bulova. This reliable timepiece served US soldiers across both the Atlantic and Pacific theaters during World War II.

The updated A-11 Service Watch maintains the original’s legacy of dependability and precision while incorporating modern enhancements for improved accuracy and comfort. The black dial, with its luminous indexes, ensures clear readability even in low-light conditions. The watch is powered by the robust TMI NH35 Automatic Movement, offering a balance of affordability and long-lasting reliability. Available in both 38mm and 42mm case sizes, it guarantees comfort and ease of reading. Assembled in the USA, this watch comes with a green canvas strap, embodying the spirit of the 1940s military specifications.

Praesidus Watch Co. is a watchmaking brand inspired by World War II’s robust and functional military timepieces. Founded in the 21st century by watch enthusiasts and history buffs, Praesidus combines vintage designs with modern engineering. The name “Praesidus,” meaning “guardian” in Latin, reflects the brand’s commitment to reliability and precision. Their mission is to create watches that honor the past while meeting modern needs, offering both functionality and style.

Praesidus watches use high-quality materials like stainless steel, sapphire crystal, and Swiss or Japanese movements. The designs often feature large, easy-to-read dials and luminous hands reminiscent of vintage military watches.
