This bespoke edition of the Burton - Blackout has been created exclusively for members of 2nd Cavalry Regiment, A sqn . Each piece features an engraved caseback and dial print. The dial carries the clean, utilitarian aesthetic of the standard Burton but with subtle, unit-specific detailing unique to this collaboration. Watches will be produced and assembled once the order window closes 14th March 2026 with delivery estimated at 3–5 months from that point. Please note: due to the use of a screw-down caseback, engraving orientation cannot be guaranteed.
