The Elliot Brown apex mission timing watch has been four years in the making and so original it's been granted a patent.
Named Beachmaster due to its mission timing story based around D-Day landings. Initially imagined in response to a request put to Elliot Brown at a Royal Marines event then honed into the most capable watch they have ever put their names to.
Imagine you’re nine hours out from mission start: simply rotate the split scale inner bezel using the upper crown and set it nine hours in advance of the GMT hand. The GMT hand will travel around the bezel scale, counting down towards H hour ( mission start) and then continue its journey around the second half of the split inner bezel, counting up to a rendezvous at a predetermined time after H hour.
As well as its timing functionality, Beachmaster is also a 'caller' GMT with an independent GMT hand as well as an external ceramic 60 minute uni-directional countdown bezel.
The case back is of course perfectly straight and true because it’s precisely bolted down, compressing the oversized seal perfectly whilst tensioning the movement shock protection system.
In the centre, the Beachmaster wordmark is deeply stamped above the wave NATO amphibious assault symbol. An octagonal frame represents the ‘spatial placement symbol’ from the NATO APP-6(C) Joint Military Symbology manual, used to control the proportions of all NATO battle space signage.
One turn of the high grip upper mission timing crown is all you need to feel an obsessive pursuit of detailed perfection. As the inner bezel moves, spring-loaded ceramic ball bearings click in and out of precisely machined chambers, securing the bezel precisely where required.
