A fitting tribute to the watch designed for the British military, the legendary Vertex WWW Cal. 59 timepiece of 1944.

On the reverse, a screw-down case back with Vertex embossed across the centre, inside a quality automatic Sellita Cal.

About Vertex

Vertex was the brainchild of Claude Lyons, born in 1885 in London. 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 World War I. In 1916, he founded Vertex Watches Ltd in both Hatton Gardens and 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. In 1944, the Cal. 59 W.W.W. Nav watch was produced. Business continued successfully throughout the 50s and 60s. Sadly, in 1972, due to the emergence of the Quartz revolution and the expiration of his lease in Hatton Gardens, Henry closed the Company. In 2015, Claude’s great-grandson, Don Cochrane, re-established the Company.
