Praesidus Jungle Field – OG-107 Patina Limited

The Jungle Field pays hommage to the iconic GG-W-113 design 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. 

For this limited edition Olive Green dial version, we wanted to pay tribute to the iconic Vietnam Era OG-107 uniform & color. Featuring applied patina indexes & track-markers the Jungle Field provides easy legibility despite its smaller 34mm case size. The dial uses our very own « popcorn » texture as an additional touch of creative re-interpretation on our part.

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 Swiss-Made Ronda 763 Quartz 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.
