Today we're doing something different; a watch review! On the bench we have the A11 Tom Rice from Praesidus. Praesidus is a micro-brand focused on military watches, specifically the iconic A11 that was issued to US and allied military offices in the Second World War. This is the Tom Rice edition, named after an airborne soldier who lost his Hamilton A11 as he was jumping out of his plane on D-Day.
Join us for a review of this watch with some discussion about the original watch and the history behind it.
