The DD-45 "Midnight" is built around one of the most enduring field watch designs ever created. During World War II, the British War Office commissioned a group of watches - later known as the œDirty Dozen- to provide soldiers with clear, dependable timekeeping in the field. Their design established the blueprint for the modern military field watch: simple, highly legible, and built for reliability under pressure. The Praesidus DD-45 preserves that utilitarian layout while upgrading it for modern durability. A screw-down crown and 10 ATM water resistance improve protection in wet environments, while a double-domed sapphire-coated crystal shields the dial from scratches and everyday wear. Inside, the watch is powered by a high-precision American-built quartz movement. Chosen for its accuracy, reliability, and minimal maintenance requirements, it delivers consistent timekeeping without the need for winding - making it a practical tool for daily use. Each DD-45 is assembled in the United States, combining one of the most recognizable military field watch designs ever produced with modern materials and dependable performance.
