MICROMILSPEC LAUNCH COMPASS AND MICRO GMT

MICROMILSPEC EXPANDS FIELD TESTING UNIT FAMILY WITH COMPASS AND MICRO GMTMODELS

Oslo, July 2, 2025 – MICROMILSPEC introduces two new additions to its acclaimed Field Testing Unit (FTU) collection: the Compass and the Micro GMT. Limited to just 25 pieces each, these timepieces build on the DNA of one of MICROMILSPEC’s best-selling and most notable field watches.

Compass: Built for Direction The Compass is built as a mechanical navigational companion. In the field, a timepiece can serve dual purposes: timekeeping and orientation. With compass markers N at 12, E at 3, S at 6, and W at 9 o’clock the bezel can be manually rotated to help wearers maintain orientation. It’s a practical enhancement for those who rely on analog tools and in need of backup easily available.

Micro GMT: Time Across Borders The Micro GMT bezel brings dual-time capability to the FTU family. Originally developed for the Royal Norwegian Air Force’s Search and Rescue Squadron for missions involving multiple time zones in close proximity. The 12-hour unidirectional bezel displays an additional timezone. The Micro GMT adds function and adds a black element to the clean, field aesthetic that defines the FTU series.

“The Field Testing Unit is the DNA of what Micromilspec is all about, being able to add Compass and the Micro GMT bezel is an exciting look into the future designs that are to follow.” — Henrik Rye, Founder, MICROMILSPEC

ABOUT FIELD TESTING UNIT.

The Field Testing Unit was the first watch ever designed by MICROMILSPEC. Its unmarked bezel, crown, and caseback allow wearers to customize and personalize the watch based on their own field experiences. Initially issued to military personnel for real world testing, the FTU is now available to the public in limited production runs.

Each FTU is part of an ongoing development program where wear and use in real conditions inform future MICROMILSPEC designs. With the addition of the Compass and Micro GMT, the FTU family continues to grow in capability and influence the entire collection.

Starting at EUR1,595.
