William Wood Dunkirk 42mm Mens Watch Black
This 42mm bronze sports watch from William Wood draws inspiration from the Massey Shaw, the historic fireboat involved in the 1940 Dunkirk evacuation. The case measures 49.5mm lug to lug and features Cu Sn8 grade bronze with brushed finishing and distinctive red piping along the sides. A matte black caseback displays an engraved scene from Operation Dynamo.
The dial combines bronze, black, and red elements inspired by the ship's telegraph controls, with aged champagne Super-Lumi Nova indices and red accents at STOP and LONDON positions. Inside sits a Swiss-made Sellita SW220 movement in Premium Top Grade specification, delivering 38 hours power reserve, 26 jewels, and chronometer-level accuracy of ±4 to ±15 seconds per day at 28,800 beats per hour. The bronze case will naturally patina over time, though it can be restored with lemon juice.
