At Praesidus we have always been mixing authenticity & modernity. Whether that be through our veteran program or our watches, we've strived to bring back the past with a taste of modernity. With our A-11 Combat Project we've made another step towards the perfect balance between vintage & modern. The Combat collection is true to size with its 32mm case size while featuring a raft of modern day upgrades. From the Swiss Ronda 763 Movement to the Double Domed Mineral Glass with Anti-Reflective Coating (thats a long one...) we've successfully updated the A-11 legacy to our modern age.

Featuring a 32MM case size, our A-11 Combat faithfully brings the A-11 into the modern world. We've upgraded the original plated brass cases to surgical-grade stainless steel greatly increasing its survivability as a daily tool & field watch. Featuring 50M/164ft water resistance, we actually require more out of our A-11 watch than the US Army originally did.
AUTHENTIC SIZE,
MODERN MATERIALS
SAME CLEAN DIAL,
UPGRADED LUMINOUS
Our A-11 Combat dial is a direct re-edition of the original A-11 designs meant to equip soldiers in battle. To that effect, our dial is uncluttered and extremely legible no matter the conditions. However, we've gone further than the originals and upgraded the lume to make sure that you can read the time in low-light environments.
ORIGINAL DOMED GLASS,
IMPROVED DURABILITY
As seen on this original A-11, the crystal features a domed acrylic design; common and cheap to manufacture at the time. The drawback of acrylic-based crystals was how easy they were to scratch. On our A-11, we upgraded from the original by using a Double Domed K1 Mineral Crystal. This allows to retain the original domed design while greatly improving scratch resistance.
Originally, the A-11s were equipped with a basic manual-wind hackable movement.
These movements were sometimes unreliable and, fragile considering the rigors of combat. Thats why we've chosen to equip our A-11 Combat with an ultra-precise and rugged Swiss Ronda 763 movement. This was also one of the only modern movements that would fit in our 32mm case.
INCREASED RELIABILITY
