Reproducing the atmosphere of the time, This is a highly complete reproduction model. ■About BENRUS BENRUS was founded in New York in 1921 by Benjamin Lazurus and his two brothers and took its name from the first syllable of his name and the last syllable of his family name. The three young men set aside $5,000 to import superior Swiss-made movements and set up a production system to assemble them in the United States. Its name became known through marketing featuring aviator Charles Lindbergh and American baseball legend Babe Ruth. In the 1930s, they sold dress watches, and in the 1960s, they sold waterproof watches with an inner bezel called the Ultra Deep, which gained popularity. Benrath's name became known to the world during the Vietnam War, when it became a government supplier as a manufacturer of military watches. Riding the wave of rapid economic recovery and demand expansion after World War II, some manufacturers were struggling to procure machinery, but thanks to our strong connections with Swiss manufacturers, which we have continued to use since the beginning of Benras, We will absorb this demand at once and achieve rapid growth. Its momentum was such that at one time it was one of the three major American manufacturers, and even Hamilton was on the verge of being acquired. From the 1960s to the 1970s, the company manufactured wristwatches for the U.S. Army and Navy as military watches used in the Vietnam War. Production of TYPE-1 and TYPE-2, which will be released later, begins. ■Features We have reprinted the Benrus military watch that was used by the US military during the Vietnam War. TYPE1 is mainly supplied to the navy, underwater, and special forces, and has a dial design that emphasizes instantaneous visibility. TYPE2 is also based on underwater work, but also takes into account activities on land, and has a dial with a 24-hour display.
