DOXA Army

In the 1960s, Doxa started suppling the elite Swiss Army Divers Unit with a purpose-built timepiece – the Doxa Army. Today, Doxa honours this legacy with a collection reinterpreting these unique models. The modern iterations pay homage to the original design while incorporating subtle touches of modernity, ensuring they resonate with contemporary vintage watch enthusiasts. The collection features models with two distinct bezel options: a sleek stainless steel or a modern bronze version – which marks the first time Doxa has made use of the material.

DOXA Army

A timepiece faithful to its roots

The Doxa Army dial seamlessly bridges the gap between past and present. The design proudly showcases its heritage through details like the familiar date window at 3 o’clock, the unmistakable crosshair logo, and the off-centre Army sign. These elements are meticulously recreated to evoke the spirit of the original timepiece. Furthering the connection to the past, the colour palette includes a creamy centre dial that complements the vibrant orange hands and black minute scale – a colour combination reminiscent of the era that inspired the Doxa Army.

The Dora Army prioritises comfortable wear. Despite its 42.5mm diameter (44.5 lug-to lug), the watch feels surprisingly compact on the wrist. The thin profile, measuring just 11.95mm in height further contributes to its comfortable wear. While the popular Doxa Sub 300 and Sub 300T series feature decompression bezels, the Doxa Army takes a different approach. It includes a classic 60-minute countdown bezel, ideal for traditional dive timing, with bold markers generously coated in SuperLuminova for exceptional low-light readability.

DOXA Army HIGHLIGHTS

Driven by an ETA movement

The heart of the Doxa Army beats with the proven technology of the ETA 2824 automatic movement. This widely respected calibre offers a reliable 38-hour power reserve and a simple design that facilitates easy servicing down the road. Choosing a timepiece with the ETA 2824 ensures both exceptional performance and long-time value. The Doxa Army ships with an extra additional NATO camouflage strap, allowing you to effortlessly switch up your look for any occasion. The watch is offered with a FKM rubber strap or beads of rice bracelet by default.

Meant for the deep

The Doxa Army isn’t just designed to look the part – it’s built to withstand the demands of professional diving environments. Crafted rugged materials and meticulous engineering, the watch boasts a water resistance rating of 30 ATM. This translate to withstanding the pressure of being submerged up to 300 metres (nearly 1,000 feet) deep – a testament to its durability and functionality.
