WMT x Crown Hour - Brigade of Gurkha Limited Edition WMT-AB097

The dial features the official Brigade of Gurkhas insignia, adopted in 1948. This minimalist emblem, consisting of a British Crown above two crossed Kukris, is the purest representation of the regiment. The crossed blades embody their famous motto, "Better to die than be a coward," symbolizing absolute military discipline and fearless courage. More than just a classic military motif, it serves as a legendary mark in Hong Kong's modern history.

The watch features a 36mm stainless steel case, perfectly proportioned to match the authentic, sleek fit of mid-century military timepieces. The dial is protected by a signature "box-shaped acrylic crystal," a definitive hallmark of historical military watches. Its highly domed profile not only enhances the visual depth of the dial but also creates captivating, warm light refractions from different angles, beautifully showcasing the refined details and historical charm of traditional military watchmaking.

The stainless steel case back is meticulously engraved with the iconic Brigade of Gurkhas insignia—the British Crown and crossed Kukris. This detail perfectly echoes the dial design, keeping the fearless spirit of this legendary regiment close to the wrist. Furthermore, each timepiece features an individual limited edition number engraved on the back, highlighting its unique identity and significantly enhancing the collectible value of this historical tribute.

The watch is paired with a durable nylon strap that perfectly echoes its rugged military style. To enhance daily versatility, this limited edition set exclusively includes an additional strap from the Hong Kong leather strap brand, Monves. Crafted from premium brown Italian leather and accented with meticulous hand-stitched detailing, this interchangeable strap further elevates the watch's vintage charm, allowing the wearer to effortlessly switch between tactical military and retro casual styles.
