This bespoke edition of the Durrant - Black has been created exclusively for members of Merseyside Police - ARV. Built for professionals who work in some of the most demanding environments on earth, the Durrant combines field-ready durability with understated design.

The dial carries the clean, utilitarian aesthetic of the standard Durrant but with subtle, unit-specific detailing unique to this collaboration. Watches will be produced and assembled once the order window closes 30th April 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.
