Jungle Field - OG
Description
The Jungle Field pays hommage to the iconic GG-W-113 spec developed by the US-Military for its pilots in 1967. Featuring a 24H inner-ring and absolute legibility of the indexes, the "Field" in Jungle Field is pretty self-explanatory.
The matte black dial and applied white indexes work together to provide easy legibility despite the smaller 34mm case size. Originally, the GG-W-113 spec required watches to be "parkerized" to reduce shine - we've achieved a similar effect with a strong sandblast on the entirety of the case & caseback.
The 34mm size of the Jungle Field is a reference to the original 1960s US Military watches which used a similar diameter as standard. We've worked to keep the overall case thickness under 10mm to further reduce the watch's presence on the wrist.
We've used a TMI VH-31 Meca-Quartz (sweep second) to guarantee reliable & rugged timekeeping while keeping the overall case thickness to a minimum. Combined with 5ATM (50M/163ft) water resistance & a sapphire coated mineral crystal for increased ruggedness in any situation.

CARE GUIDE
Thanks to our expertise & quality materials your watch will require very little day-to-day care. You can help preserve its lustre by washing the case and bracelet from time to time using soapy water and a soft brush. Before cleaning your watch, always ensure that the winding crown is properly pushed down to guarantee waterproofness.
Inspired by the iconic GG-W-113 spec published by the US Military in 1967, the Jungle Field incorporates all key elements to guarantee legibility & reliability. The original GG-W-113 spec was most famously used throughout the Vietnam War by US pilots as a highly dependable tool. We made sure to respect the original specifications as close as we could to provide the same high-performance watch that the specification called for.
At Praesidus Watch Co. we’re known for playing around with the original sizes of iconic field watch designs. The Jungle Field is no exception to this treatment with its 34mm case diameter. Rather small, its wrist presence is still large specifically because it stands out for its size. Furthermore, the smaller diameter & thin side-profile means the watch will never get in your wrist’s way.
