Praesidus A-11 Type 44 Patina

The A-11 Type 44 by Praesidus is a tribute to the legendary original A-11 watches without attempting to replace the historical timepieces, which remain available in the market, each bearing its own historical significance. Instead, the Type 44 serves as a high-quality, contemporary homage to the legendary originals.

Using a 1944 Waltham as a benchmark, Praesidus imagined the Type 44 with great attention to detail. Unlike the original A-11s, the Type 44 retains a unique feature: the absence of a second-hand counter-balance, reflecting the vintage Waltham’s wear and tear over time, as it had broken off over time.

The Type 44 features a durable stainless steel case and a water resistance of 10 ATM, ensuring greater ruggedness than its predecessors. Its Swiss-made P024 movement guarantees precision and reliability that an 80-year-old original A-11 just cannot match.

For those seeking a wearable, reliable A-11 that captures the essence of American ingenuity and the bravery of its creators, the A-11 Type 44 is the perfect choice. Available in a choice of 32mm and 38mm sizes, it features a 1940s-style Bonklip Bracelet, making it a timeless revival suited for the modern era. Proudly assembled in America, the A-11 Type 44 is a piece of history brought into the 21st century.
