Custom watchmaking

The octagonal signature case is a central part of MICROMILSPEC's DNA. Developed with focus on completeness, functionality and uniqueness.

This development has been ongoing for several years, during which we have worked to come up with a design that is robust enough to function as a professional watch, while also being elegant and subtle enough to be used for formal occasions.

Another aspect in the development of the case is to find a design and size that fits most wrists. We have achieved this by keeping the height of the watch to 12 millimeters. This, along with angled lugs and an integrated bracelet with the option to remove or add links, makes the wearing comfort unparalleled, whether you prefer small or large watches.

We've developed a proprietary block insert to guide the straps inside the case for the perfect fit. Our specially-designed solid insert has been micro-calibrated in conjunction with the Micromilspec watch case allowing for a seamless integration. The result is a strap system which achieves a tight, motionless, and gap-free connection with zero tolerance. In turn, this ensures a safe and dependable mount, along with reliable springbar insertion/removal.

Story telling is at the heart of customising at MICROMILSPEC. Distinct details personal to the unit and wearer are designed, refined and sampled. Tools are developed, colours are mixed, indexes are stamped, dial rings are engraved, polished. etc .
