We’ve covered a lot of watches over the years, but few have the kind of provenance you’ll find in this new Vortic 2022 Special Edition Military Series Watch. This special edition watch is crafted from the very rare Elgin 581 GCT movement made for the US Army Air Corps during World War II and then housed in a solid bronze case that looks great now but will also patina over time like the mechanisms themselves. What’s more, since Vortic produced this piece to benefit Veteran’s, $500 from each watch will be donated to the Veterans Watchmaker Initiative which trains disabled military vets on how to become professional watchmakers. The average unemployment rate for disabled war veterans is 82%, and the funds they donate will put a dent in that figure, so you’re getting an incredible timepiece and doing some good in the process.
Vortic’s New Special Edition Military Watch Is Limited to 15 Pieces
