New Smiths Commander 71

This Sunday (31st August) sees the launch of our new Smiths Commander 71 PRS-71 Retro Diver.

The latest addition to the Commander series is inspired by a rare Smiths dive model that only appeared in the 1971 catalogue - a rare gem we discovered just last year - this new release brings a beloved vintage design into the modern era. Faithfully capturing the original aesthetic whilst being updated with a modern specification.

The distinctive baton hands from the original design remain, now enhanced with ultra-bright Super-LumiNova inserts for superior visibility in low light. The bezel also features fully lumed numerals and indices.

The retro-styled bracelet is equipped with a signed push-button clasp and four-position “on-the-fly” micro-adjustment for easy sizing throughout the day. Quick-release spring bars make strap changes effortless.

Available in two striking dial options: 
• A black satin dial with matching Pie Pan detailing
• A white dial with a silver sunburst Pie Pan finish

Both models offer robust performance with 300m water resistance and an anti-magnetic rating of 20,000 A/m—making them technically capable sports watches that transition seamlessly into more formal settings.

There will be very limited stock of all other watch models available.

The PRS-59 W.W.W. will be available in October and the Everest range will hopefully be available from November, though these dates may be subject to change.

Please note: During busy periods, we may need to temporarily close the store to ensure we fulfill orders in a timely and efficient manner. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Thanks, as always, for your continued support. Stay tuned for more updates as release dates approach!
