This watch's design draws inspiration from classic military dashboard instruments and vintage ergonomics, cleverly shifting the crown to the top of the case to prevent it from digging into the wrist during intense physical activity. The 40mm bead-blasted 316L stainless steel case curves over your wrist, featuring an avant-garde, shield-like monocoque aesthetic with integrated fixed strap bars. An elongated lug-to-lug length of 54.5mm and a sleek, low-profile case thickness of 12mm give the watch a flat, broad, and deeply tactical wrist presence. Polished surfaces are completely abandoned in favour of a stealthy, anti-reflective matte finish. At the noon position, a deeply recessed, signed screw-down crown sits between the integrated top lugs in a distinctive \"Bullhead\" configuration. The characteristic fixed bezel forms a seamless, hard-angled extension of the main case architecture. The flat sapphire crystal, AR-coated on the inside, is set above a matte black dial that prioritises clinical, split-second legibility. An outer minute track is precisely marked, complemented by bold, printed Arabic numerals and a prominent triangle at 12 o'clock, all heavily coated in Super-LumiNova C3 for an intense green glow in low light. Positioned cleanly above 6 o’clock, a neat date window blends perfectly into the dial layout without disrupting visual balance. The central handset features black-framed semi-skeletonised hour and minute hands filled with matching Super-LumiNova, complemented by a sharp, white sweeping central seconds hand. At noon, the historic, cursive Smiths motif sits proudly under the top lugs. On the reverse, a solid, flat screw-down case back is stamped with the watch details and the Ministry of Defence for a NATO Stock Number (NSN) 6645-99-994-7232. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSecuring the inner mechanism against harsh field conditions while providing a robust 100-metre water resistance rating. Inside beats the Automatic Seiko Cal. NE15 (the premium, unbranded version of Seiko’s legendary 6R15 calibre), featuring 23 jewels, a hacking seconds function, and a generous 50-hour power reserve. Operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour, this workhorse movement is renowned for its reliability and utilises a Spron 510 mainspring for enhanced durability. True to its military tool heritage, the watch comes paired with a rugged 22mm black NATO strap that slips securely through the integrated bars. This timepiece comes complete with its original Smiths presentation travel case and paperwork.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-cb276d81-7fff-3b34-2752-92f717d696f5\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smiths","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57422605418876,"sku":"PRS-40A","price":195.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/0771\/3366\/files\/1_ab83792b-1184-4dc0-b262-e54831992091.jpg?v=1789060023","url":"https:\/\/kibblewatches.co.uk\/products\/2019-smiths-nato-prs-40a-automatic-bullhead-40mm","provider":"KibbleWatches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
