TWO DIAL LAYOUTS

Version 'A'

A clean, symmetrical layout with running seconds and date at 6h. Inspired by the Flieger ‘Type-A’ watch worn by German airmen during WWII, this version features luminous Arabics with a ‘triangle-dots’ marker at 12h. The movement features a one hour chronograph register and  a 24 hour sub dial.

Version 'B'

An asymmetrical layout that is functional and practical, used for both the VK67 and 7750 movement. Pointed batons provide ample surface for the Swiss Super-LumiNova C3 paint. Measure events up to twelve hours.

For 2025, we redefined what the Kruger should be: A lightweight tactical chronograph.

At its core is the chronograph function. When you are out in the field, a chronograph should be easily accessible, intuitive, and provide clear legibility.

The VK mechaquartz version is an affordable yet functional option, giving you a smooth 1/5sec counter and snappy reset. It’s also capable of resetting while timing.

The 7750 automatic version gives you accurate minute measurements via the 30-min register while providing an extremely reasuring start/stop action. 

Access to a secondary measurement scale via the 60-click bidirectional rotating bezel gives you another layer of function. There are three options for the brushed ceramic bezel insert.

Depending on your setup, the Kruger can be used to count down to the start/end of an event, monitor elapsed time, or track a secondary time zone.
