This bespoke edition of the Burton - Blackout has been created exclusively for members of V16 Charlie company . 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 22nd 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. While we take great care to match colours as closely as possible to the approved digital render, slight variations between on-screen colours and the final physical product can occasionally occur due to differences in screens, lighting, and production…
