Introducing The New Swiss Military Calibre Mens Commando Collection
Timepieces Worthy of the Most Enduring and
Important Military Competition Ever Held
Important Military Competition Ever Held
The Swiss Raid Commando is widely recognized as one of the world’s longest lasting and most important military competitions. These “commando” type exercises were first held in 1986 and continued through 2009. Elite troops from 15 nations competed in aquatic, shooting, and obstacle exercises, while conducting simulated raids and commando operations. For the duration of the competition, the Swiss Raid Commando was one of the only opportunities that the world’s military forces had to measure their own capabilities against similar commandos from other nations.
To pay tribute to this famous competition, Swiss Military Calibre has introduced the Commando Collection. These tough, no nonsense timepieces feature design details that real military commandos would appreciate. The durable stainless steel case has either been sandblasted to eliminate unnecessary reflections, or receives a stealthy black IP coating. Luminous indices, hands and numbers provide easy readability under the most adverse conditions. A durable NATO style canvas or caoutchouc strap is fitted on the case as a cuff. These are tough watches that still manage to look stylish. All Commando timepieces are quartz powered for uncompromising accuracy and precision.

Swiss Military Calibre Commando watches are available in both dual time and chronograph models. The dual time model shown here is equipped with two separate setting crowns so that the time zone being monitored can be quickly and easily changed.
Like all Swiss Military Calibre timepieces, each Commando Collection watch is water resistant to 330 feet. All watches are equipped with a durable mineral glass crystal. The fit and finish of these fine timepieces is impeccable with detailing that is seldom seen at such a reasonable price point. If you’re looking for a tough military appearance without giving up style and sophistication, then a Swiss Military Calibre Commando is the watch for you. To view the entire Commando collection and reserve your own Commando timepiece, contact your authorized Swiss Military Calibre dealer today.

Introducing The New Swiss Military Calibre Mens Revolution Collection
In a world where all information is available instantly, a watch doesn’t need to evolve; it needs to revolve.
The world has changed. Today, almost every country in the world is on the brink of a fundamental revolution in how it handles its national security affairs. This revolution in military affairs, or RMA as it is known in military circles, is the result of the increasing importance of information technology in military planning. Military strategists openly acknowledge that advances in technology have enabled them to obtain information from any part of world almost instantly. As a result, armies in the future will be less about raw military power and more about the quality of the sensors, communication links, avionics, munitions that they are able to use.
In acknowledgment of this fundamental change, Swiss Military Calibre has introduced the Revolution Collection. These straightforwardly stylish timepieces feature an exposed revolving date wheel that presents an entire month of information at once. In the information centric world we live in, more information is good. To complement the unique revolving date display, a floating small seconds dial is attached directly to the chapter ring with two screws for a distinctive three-dimensional look.

Stylish Swiss Military Calibre Mens 06-4H1-04-004 Hawk Chronograph Diving Watch
The Diver’s Watch that Makes a Fashion Statement
Diver’s watches have an iconic style all their own. Traditionally, diver’s watches feature a large rotating bezel, clearly marked in five-minute intervals. Bold, easily distinguishable minute markings on the watch face are mandatory, since most dives are less than an hour in length. This is why the minutes are much more prominent on a diving watch than the hour markings. When you’re under water, every minute counts. It is also important that the watch be readable in total darkness. Of course, all diving watches must be water resistant to at least 100 meters, but nobody said they needed to be stylish.
Swiss Military Calibre decide to change all that with the introduction of its new Hawk Collection. These exciting diver’s style chronographs are not only extremely functional; they’re fabulously fashionable as well.
A brightly colored chapter ring divides the large rotating diver’s bezel on the Swiss Military Hawk Chronograph from the extra wide luminous indices, creating a dial that is both attractive and extremely readable. Even the hour and minute hands are skeletonized to improve readability under difficult conditions.
Attention to detail is evident everywhere you look on this superb Swiss made timepiece. The chronograph second hand is tipped with red to improve visibility. The date window is conveniently placed at four o’clock, so as not to obscure any of the three functional sub dials. With easy-to-read indicators for 12 hours, 30 minutes, and 60 seconds, virtually any interval can be timed with ease.
The high quality Swiss-made quartz movement is cased in a solid block of stainless steel that is water resistant to 100 meters. A pair of well-placed black pushers flanks the protected stainless steel crown, and four dramatic oversized bolts are used to fasten the comfortable caoutchouc strap to the case.
Although the Swiss Military Hawk Chronograph is quite affordable for a watch of this quality, you don’t need to tell anybody that you got a bargain. When people see the superb finish and attention to detail that is evident on this watch, they will think you paid thousands of dollars more.

Swiss Military Calibre Mens 06-4F1-04-002 Flames Chronograph Watch
Think of the Flames as a Ferrari for Your Wrist
In racing circles, you’ll often see a fine timepiece on the wrist of the winning driver. Racing and watches share a long history, because whenever you have speed, there are going to be people who want to measure it. Ever since Steve McQueen wore a distinctive watch in the movie Le Mans, men and women who love speed and sports have been looking for a boldly styled timing tool they can wear on their wrist. There are many racing watches available, but unfortunately, the ones typically endorsed by famous Formula One drivers are priced out of reach for the average person.
With the introduction of the new Swiss Military Calibre Flames Collection, the search for an affordable, luxury driver’s watch is finally over. The Swiss Military Flames Chronograph makes a bold and original statement with brightly colored side panels and matching accents on the pushers and crown.
The watch is equipped with a beautiful calf leather band that has been hand stitched to match the watch’s color palate. This watch is simply beautiful. It’s almost like wearing a Ferrari on your wrist.
The refined dial is clean and easy-to-read with colored numerals that match the side panels. The waterproof crown is protected and flanked by two rectangular chronograph pushers. This dramatic oversized watch features a mineral glass crystal with a 60 minute rotating bezel that makes the timing of any event easy. There are thirty minute and ten hour sub-dials for event timing, as well as a small continuous second hand. An easy to read big date complication completes the dial at six o’clock.
The Flames is a lot more than a thing of beauty however. The high quality Swiss-made quartz movement is cased in a solid block of stainless steel that is water resistant to 100 meters. The superb fit and finish of this watch will remind you of the famous timepieces worn by your favorite drivers. Although the Swiss Military Flames is quite affordable for a watch of this quality, it has the same finesse and attention to detail found on watches costing thousands of dollars more.
If you’ve been driving yourself crazy looking for the perfect performance watch, the Swiss Military Calibre Flames Chronograph could be exactly what you’re looking for. To acquire one of these fine timepieces for yourself, contact your Swiss Military Calibre dealer today and reserve your Flames today.

Fortis Hungarian Air Force Squadron Watches
Fortis Pilot Professional Chronograph
Official Watch of an Entire Air Force
Official Watch of an Entire Air Force
The Hungarian Air Force has had a long and interesting history. The Air Force was founded in 1918 under the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic, but was disbanded only two years later at the end of World War I under the Treaty of Trianon. Under the terms of the treaty, Hungary was forbidden from owning military aircraft. A secret air force was gradually established using civilian planes during the 1930’s and in the Summer of 1942, this secret force became part of the Luftwaffe and fought against Russia on the Eastern Front during World War II.
After the Soviets took over Hungary in 1947, the Russians began to expand and modernize the Hungarian Air Force. During the cold war, the Hungarian pilots flying Russian MIG fighters provided one of the first lines of defense against an attack from the West. The fall of the Soviet Union brought even more dramatic changes, as the Hungarian Air Force became one of the first air forces in the world to officially change sides.
Today, the Hungarian Air Force is a full member of NATO and participates in a wide variety of humanitarian and defensive missions around the world.
In 2001, the Hungarian Air Force selected the Fortis Pilot Professional Chronograph as their official timepiece and Hungarian air squadrons have been loyal to Fortis ever since.
A special limited edition of the Pilot Professional Chronograph was created to honor Hungarian NATO pilots. This watch features the Hungarian Air Force insignia on the custom dial at 9 o’clock and the words “Hungarian Air Force” below the small second hand at 6 o’clock.
This watch proved popular with pilots and it wasn’t long before the air force’s 47th Combat Squadron based in Pápa, Hungary requested a special version of the Pilot Professional Chronograph for their own squadron. Instead of the Hungarian Air Force insignia, this rare limited edition watch features the insignia of the 47th Combat Squadron at 9 o’clock.
Only 200 numbered watches honoring this elite group of MIG pilots were ever produced.
It is not surprising that the Fortis Pilot Professional Chronograph has been selected by pilots around the world as their official timepiece. This rugged 40mm stainless steel watch is water resistant to 100 meters and features a premium Swiss Valjoux 7750 movement that is accurate to within 1 second a day. The clean, uncluttered black dial features bold white Arabic numerals that are clearly visible even in low-light conditions. These are professional watches that pilots are proud to wear during active duty and pass down to their heirs later.

Fortis USMC Aerial Refueler Transport 352 Squadron Watches
|
The Fortis B-42 Cosmonaut GMT Raider |
| An Exclusive Watch for an Illustrious Squadron |
Since its creation in April of 1943, Marine Transport Squadron 352 has been providing aerial support wherever the United States Marine Corps has been deployed. This elite unit supported the Berlin Airlift in 1948. The Raiders, as the squadron has come to be known, provided support for the Marines throughout the Korean conflict.
With their rapid response capabilities and versatile aircraft, they were called on again during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. The squadron played a vital role throughout the Vietnam era and has taken part in numerous peacekeeping missions, from the civil war in Rwanda, to the disastrous 1999 earthquake in Turkey, as well as the tsunami that devastated Thailand in 2004. In recent years, the squadron has demonstrated their skill and commitment again and again by supporting critical Marine and Navy missions in Iraq and Afghanistan.
It is only fitting that a fighting force with the illustrious history of Marine Transport Squadron 352 would choose an equally illustrious timepiece for their official squadron watch: the Fortis B-42 Cosmonaut GMT.
To commemorate the squadron’s many achievements, Fortis made a special limited edition of 25 military watches exclusively for squadron members.
This unique and very exclusive version of the B-42 Cosmonaut GMT features the 352 squadron patch on the custom dial at 9 o’clock, along with the Raiders scull and crossbones insignia at 12 o’clock. With only 25 total units worldwide, this special limited edition is almost as rare as the Fortis Cosmonaut watches that have actually flown in space.
The B-42 Cosmonaut GMT is a perfect choice for aviators like the Raiders of Squadron 352. The clarity of the double anti-reflective sapphire crystal is amazing, making the clean, uncluttered dial easy to read in any light. The 60 click rotating 24-hour chapter ring is divided into black for night and gray for day, making it almost effortless to track multiple time zones. It’s no surprise that the Russian Space Agency and the Squadron 352 Raiders both rely on the B-42 Cosmonaut GMT.
Fortis Squadron Watches aren’t just another military style timepiece. They’re part of your uniform!

Swiss Military Calibre Mens 06-5i3-04-007 Immersion Chronograph Watch
Now You Need Not Give Up Wearability
Just Because You Love Water
Just Because You Love Water
Diver watches have traditionally been heavy and bulky. They needed to be that way to retain their water resistant qualities. Swiss Military Calibre thought it was time for something different. Their new Immersion Collection has refined the traditional diver watch and turned it into something you’d be proud to wear anywhere.
The bold new Swiss Military Calibre Immersion Chronograph provides a good example of this versatility. This rugged and durable timepiece is water resistant to 100 meters. You can easily wear the watch while surfing, swimming, snorkeling or sailing. The 44mm stainless steel case features a distinctive and functional rotating diver’s bezel that allows you to quickly establish the time remaining on any event under one hour.
Do you need to time an event over an hour? No problem. A precision Swiss-made quartz movement powers a full-function chronograph with 30 minute and 12 hour subdials. There is also a continuous small second hand along with a tachymeter scale on the top ring. Two easy to use pushers flank the stainless steel crown and control the chronograph functions. There is virtually nothing that you can’t time, either above or below the water with this fabulous and functional timepiece.
What really sets the watch apart is the beautiful integrated stainless steel band. The lines flow so smoothly between the case and band that the overall effect is sculptural. Like all Swiss Military Calibre models, the fit and finish on the Immersion Chronograph is outstanding. You can wear this watch for a dress event one day and then dunk it in the water the next.
This is the legacy of the Swiss Military Calibre. Behind the sporty good looks is a total commitment to quality. If you appreciate performance, but don’t want to give up style, the Swiss Military Calibre Immersion Chronograph could be the perfect watch for you. To acquire one of these fine timepieces for yourself, contact your Swiss Military Calibre dealer and reserve your Immersion Chronograph today.
