Here we have a 2024 Vertex M100A Automatic 40mm on Bracelet + Straps, featuring a 40mm brushed stainless steel case, with ‘A’ standing for Automatic. A fitting tribute to the watch designed for the British military, the legendary Vertex WWW Cal. 59 timepiece of 1944. Its curved brushed flanks lead to a lug-to-lug length of 48.5mm and a case thickness of 12mm, giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. On the right side is a coin-edged screw-down crown. A brushed, smooth bezel holds a double-domed box sapphire crystal, AR-coated above a matte black dial. The applied, moulded C3 X1 Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals add height and real interest and dimension. Elegant syringe hands are lume-filled, and at 6 o’clock, we have a sub-seconds register. At 12 o’clock in keeping with its military heritage, there sits a Broad Arrow (pheon), the mark indicating British Government Issue property. On the reverse, a screw-down case back with Vertex embossed across the centre, inside a quality automatic Sellita Cal. SW260-1, 31 jewels, beating at 28,800 beats per hour, Elaboré Grade custom-made with the Vertex’s Cal59 ratchet weight rotor.

Vertex was the brainchild of Claude Lyons of London, born in 1885. At the age of 17, he started his involvement in the watch Industry. With the help of a £1000 loan, he set up Dreadnaught Watches in 1912. In 1915, they were producing watches for the British armed forces during WW1. In 1916, he founded Vertex Watches Ltd in both Hatton Gardens and in Switzerland. In 1927, Vertex became the exclusive importer of Movado Watches to the UK. 1938 Henry Lyons Claude's son-in-law joins the company. In 1940, their Hatton Gardens premises were destroyed by a Luftwaffe bomb. In 1941, as a Captain in the British Army, Henry was asked to create a watch suitable for the British military. 1944 saw the production of the Cal.59 W.W.W. Nav watch. Business continued successfully throughout the 50s and 60s. Sadly in 1972 due to the emergence of the Quartz revolution and the expiring of his lease in Hatton Gardens, Henry closed the Company. In 2015 Claude’s Great Grandson Don Cochrane re-established the Company. And the rest is history as they say.
