An Instant Classic

Then, And Now

Machine has long set the standard for rugged style. Every detail has been carefully considered, from its oversized crown to its signature knurled bezel – a diamond-etched texture originally used to add grip to metal tools and something we’ve featured on our watches since the beginning. It’s a true celebration of American manufacturing and innovation.
