When the 2/19 Special Forces approached Hampden, they weren’t looking for just another field watch. Their goal was clear: a timepiece that honored their organization and could be passed down for generations.
Over six months, we worked together to co-create a watch that embodied mission heritage, personal significance, and timeless design. From the custom dial in rifle green with polished indices, to multiple strap options, every detail was designed with both performance and presentation in mind.
The caseback engraving was crafted in collaboration with 2/19 members to reflect their roots, values, and legacy. It includes symbolic elements like The Minuteman, the Special Forces crest, and representations of the home states of their members, paired with the motto: “Audentis Fortuna Iuvat” (“Fortune Favors the Bold”).
This project demonstrates the power of personalization and purposeful design, and it’s exactly what we bring to our Group Gifting Legacy Program. Whether you’re creating a custom watch for your team, organization, or clients, our team will guide you through every step — from concept to final delivery - ensuring your group gift is as meaningful as it is beautiful.
