Strap:Black Military Webbing
Full Description

A fully lumed dial GMT Holton Automatic, the ying, to last year's WHITEOUT’s yang, this time with matt vapour blasted gunmetal case. The perfect blend of purposeful clarity brimming with tactile precision.

It’s everything the Holton is renowned for amongst military circles with the coolest fully lumed dial, flooded with SuperLuminova BGW9 and a reliable-as-clockwork GMT automatic movement housed within our shock protection system. The anti-reflective matt dial is carefully considered for maximum clarity day or night. Snowy white by day switching to the coolest ice blue when the light fades with bold black hands and hour markers contrasting perfectly in all conditions for instant recognition.

Everything about this Holton GMT screams tool-watch function, deeply recessed crown, positioned out of harm's way at 4h, high grip 24hr bezel with unidirectional 120 click mechanism housing a case-hardened insert engraved and backfilled with white markings that also glow ice blue. The red 12h index triangle with matching red tip on the seconds hand adds a discreet touch of colour to balance the dial, all framed within a toughened dark matt gunmetal PVD exterior.

Fitted with a matching ‘B09 three link 316L bracelet affixed with easy change solid strap bars and a neat micro extension system hidden within the clasp engraved and infilled with a white EB shield that glows blue so you can find your watch at night even if it’s left upside down. The devil’s in the detail.

BLACK WHITEOUT is undoubtedly a fine off-grid timepiece with the kind of fit-for-purpose credentials any self-respecting adventurer would want on their side when the going gets tough.
