The DD-45 “Factory Fresh” is a modern interpretation of what a Dirty Dozen watch would have looked like fresh off the production line of any of the twelve manufacturers in 1944-45. It features crisp white Super Luminova indexes and hands paired with a textured black dial, providing the same high legibility as the originals did when they were first delivered from Switzerland during World War II.

Designed as a tribute to the original Dirty Dozen watches commissioned by the British War Office to standardize high-performance field watches for the British Army, the DD-45 surpasses the original specifications, bringing it into the 21st century. Originally designed to be “waterproof,” the DD-45 modernizes these requirements with a 10ATM water resistance rating and a screw-down crown, ensuring it remains secure in wet conditions. The double-domed sapphire crystal offers best-in-class scratch resistance.

Honoring the historical origins of these watches, which were produced by twelve different manufacturers in Switzerland, each version is equipped with the Landeron L24 Swiss-Made movement. This movement features a frequency of 28,800 BHP and includes 25 jewels, providing a smooth second-hand movement and high precision. The DD-45 is made to be robust and reliable, suitable for use in any conditions.

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.
