“Call in the frogmen!” That’s what you say when a military mission calls for combat scuba divers and swimmers. Many countries have their own elite forces of frogmen, but the first modern frogmen were the Italian commando unit of Decima Flottiglia MAS, or the 10th Assault Vehicle Flotilla. In the 1930s and ’40s, these men pioneered a new kind of war, and with it, new types of tools. That’s when watchmakers created the cushion case, an iconic watch shape that mixes comfort with top-shelf mechanics. Known best for its square shape with rounded corners, the cushion case became a hallmark of the Frogmen of the Italian Navy. Inspired by this tale, we asked our guys in Switzerland to create a watch that incorporates the look of the frogman watches with the precision of Swiss watches. The result is our Swiss Tactical Cushion Watch, a timepiece that’s at home under the surf or atop a snowy mountain. Best of all, this watch features of the legendary precision of a Swiss Ronda quartz movement. Don’t wait. Hop on this incredible offer while supplies last.
