Camo X The Rifle
Description
The A-11 Camo X The Rifle is a limited edition in collaboration with Andrew Biggio - author & owner of The Rifle. This A-11 is meant to honor the Heroes of the Pacific - too often forgotten.
"The Rifle" originally refers to an M1 Garand Service Rifle with which Andrew would visit & talk with WW2 veterans. Being the standard issue rifle of the time, each veteran has had an experience with it. Andrew's M1 has now become iconic as it is covered in signatures from all of the WW2 veterans that he has met.
The A-11 Camo take inspiration from the M1 Garand through its steel case that features a distinct "gun" plating that tries to match the original plating of the M1's Barrel.
For the dial, we directly inspired ourselves from the M1942 "Frog Skin" camouflage that the US Marines Corps used during the Pacific Campaign in South-East Asia. Featuring Swiss Super-Luminova, the watch will perform extremely well in low-light conditions with easy & durable legibility.
Each A-11 Camo is equipped with a P024 Swiss Automatic movement & will come either with a "The Rifle" book or, a direct donation to support Andrew Biggio & his incredible work with the Vets.
