The original Beachmaster Professional is a patented, multi time-zone, mission timer is dedicated to the D Day landings and was born out of conversations with the Royal Marines. Now, Elliot Brown are due to release 20 pieces of a new iteration of the Beachmaster Professional, The Fade. Carrying all of the beloved specifications of previous models but now with a fitting classic red green fade around the inner timing bezel. An eye-catching timepiece appropriate for such an event as British Watchmaker’s Day, the model hopes to pay homage to the 80th anniversary of D Day with a significant nod to the Normandy landings on Omaha Beach which were segmented into assault sectors, two of which were named Easy Red and Fox Green.
Each GMT Automatic Beachmaster is rigorously tested and safe for use in water up to 300m. With a 24h click-lock internal mission timing bezel and ceramic external divers bezel, this timepiece makes a great comrade for any adventure. Complete with dual time zone functionality and a 56h power reserve, this is the first analogue watch to be granted a patent in a generation and its high-performance standards serve as an explanation as to why.
The Beachmaster is impressively presented on a stainless-steel bracelet complete with a 5 stage expanding divers buckle and solid steel strap bars to ensure strap changes are always seamless.
