Fire Exit Watch
Inspired by the emergency fire exit sign
Triumph
Our iconic Triumph Collection caseback features our Swiss-Made In Case Of Fire Break Glass Movement.
Fire Exit
Our Fire Exit caseback features a rotating disc of a man running away from a fire in real time through a fire exit door. Even the words fire exit illuminate at night.
Dunkirk
Our Dunkirk caseback depicts the famous Operation Dynamo scene from World War II. The brass boat on the horizon is a genuine piece of a London Fire Brigade boat engine that saved 600 lives off the beaches in 1940.
Fearless
Our Fearless caseback features a modern day British firefighter helmet, with a coloured visor that looks directly into the watch movement.
Fire
Our Fire Watch caseback features the highly flammable symbol which glows in the dark at night when a lume torch is applied.
Chivalrous
Placed in the back of our Chivalrous Collection is a limited edition commemorative coin made from a 1920's British brass firefighter's helmet.

100 YEARS OF HISTORY INSIDE
