description: 25 watches. 25 unique dials. Each one is truly one of a kind. Some limited editions are simply numbered. The Kilroy Was Here collection goes a step further: each of the 25 watches in this series is a genuinely unique piece.

The result is a dial that almost feels alive, with shades of turquoise, blue and bronze that shift with the light. No two watches ever look alike, and recreating an existing dial is virtually impossible.

The engraved Kilroy figure appears on the leather strap, alongside the famous "Kilroy Was Here" inscription, as a discreet reminder of that timeless message. A dial unlike any other The unique patinated brass dial features a Pilot-style sandwich construction, offering exceptional depth with outstanding legibility. Large cut-out indexes reveal a layer of Super-LumiNova® BGW9, providing a crisp blue glow in low light while enhancing the vintage military inspiration. Classic pilot hands The watch is fitted with Pilot-style hands, carefully proportioned for excellent legibility and also filled with Super-LumiNova® BGW9, ensuring perfect visibility day and nigh…
