SMITHS AIR MINISTRY PRS-29AM

SOLD OUT.
Another run will be produced in 2023 - Please sign up to our newsletter for more information.

Although only issued for 4 years between 1967 and 1970, the Smiths is probably the best known of all British military watches and until quite recently, one of the more affordable for collectors.

This reintroduction is a completely new watch, built from scratch and incorporating improvements over the original. It is available only in 36mm diameter, now having a hi-dome sapphire crystal and drilled lugs with shoulderless springbars to allow a greater choice of straps to be fitted. Both versions have a soft iron dial and anti-magnetic cage, giving an anti-magnetic rating of 20,000 A/m (251 Oe). Both the black dial and white dial (Air Ministry) versions have also been allocated a NATO Stock Number (NSN).

Supplied in a watch traveling case with 24 months guarantee.

All watches are guaranteed against defective workmanship for 24 months from
date of purchase and the guarantee for the first 12 months applies to the
original purchaser only.
