This bespoke edition of the Durrant GMT has been created exclusively for members of Joint Advanced Warfighting School (National Defense University). Built for professionals, the Durrant combines field-ready durability with understated design. Each piece features an engraved caseback and unit dial print. The dial carries the clean, utilitarian aesthetic of the standard Durrant but with subtle, unit-specific detailing unique to this collaboration. Each watch will come shipped on the rubber strap and have a spare black zulu strap. Watches will be produced and assembled once the order window closes, 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.
