There are certain watchmakers that we gravitate towards when looking for the ultimate in adventure ready timepieces and, chief amongst them, is Los Angeles based, MTM Watches. Their latest release, the Automatic US-744X Collection of watches expertly showcases their uncompromising, stealthy timepieces in all their glory and this latest series is one of the most covert divers class watches ever designed by MTM.
Taking its design inspiration from the US NAVY’S VIRGINIA Class attack Submarine, this Limited-Edition MTM Special Ops Automatic US-744X Watch is built for serious action and has a price tag of between $2800 and $2950. Don’t be fooled by its sophisticated design – this boardroom masterpiece was devised for those who want the highest quality in a submergible model without the all too familiar aesthetic of a typical diver’s timepiece. And MTM have pulled this off with aplomb.
From the Deep Blue Sea to the Boardroom
For the excellent looking US-744X collection, MTM jettisoned less used complications to deliver a considerably more functional timepiece for today’s businessman. For those that enjoy diving into their work as much as the sea, you will be thrilled to hear that this uncompromising timepiece can go to a depth of some 3300 feet which, needless to say, makes it one of the most impressive on the market in this regard.
The MTM Special Ops Automatic US-744X Watches (from $2800) are available in an array of different colourways to suit different tastes and each one has certainly caught our eye here at Coolector HQ. There are so many features to these watches that set them apart from the competition in the dive watch market which includes the first rate Grand 6R20 29 bold 45-hour automatic movement with power reserve counter and 29 jewels. This provides unparalleled performance and accuracy in the sea and the office.
Other stand out features of this magnificent automatic watches from MTM Special Ops include a double layered dial with day and date sub counters at nine, six and three, respectively and tritium tubes are hand applied on both watch hands and at all hour markers. It has a solid CNC titanium, integrated with carbon fibre watch case which is as robust and resilient as they come and will easily stand up to the elements on any adventures you find yourself on.
Limited Edition Offering
There is always an air of exclusivity to the timepiece releases from MTM Special Ops and the US-744X Watches are certainly no exception. Limited to just 500 pieces, these glorious looking, adventure ready watches will sell out fast so, if you’ve liked what you’ve seen (and it’s hard not to), you better move quickly to make sure you secure one for your wrist. We’re big fans of the stealthy style and bold, robust nature of these watches from MTM and it’s easy to see why they might just be one of the American’s watchmaker’s most popular to date.
With prices starting at $2800, these are obviously a bit of an investment but if you’re after a dive watch which effortlessly walks the line between business style and adrenaline action, the US-744X will be tough to beat. Each one comes with a custom-built titanium bracelet with adjustable links connected with screws which makes it easy to adjust and an exhibition case back to see the automatic movement in all its glory. A fantastic timepiece and a great addition to any dive watch aficionado’s line up.
