Praesidus A-11 Tom Rice Review. Affordable Automatic Navigator Inspired By The Iconic Originals.

Not many types of watches are as iconic and coveted as the A-11. "The watch that helped win WW2" as it was dubbed, was made by 4 different brands in the '40s and now Praesidus is doing its best to honor those historic pieces with their take on the A-11, this one the Praesidus A-11 Tom Rice edition. Inspired by the original from Waltham, Bulova, and Elgin, but also Hamilton, with their unique handset, which is the watch that Tom Rice wore. These watches have sapphire crystals and automatic movements and are available for $299, and assembled in the USA.

What do you think of this historic inspired A-11 watch? 👇

[@megasoid]

I have a Praesidus A-11, but no the coveted Tom Rice edition. This watch surprised me. While I enjoy the Bulova Hack better, the A-11 will not ever leave my collection. Thanks for the review.

Welcome. 👍

Get the Thorn A11, its 120$, has a titanium case, european sapphire , bgw 9 lume and a seiko nh35a .
A much better deal

[@user-te6uv3wy7n]

nice watch but price should be less :(

[@wheelsdeal]

Its $350 now...

I like this. White would look great on a black NATO, which I’d throw out and put on an even better looking black leather strap 🏁😁 although seriously I’ve been eyeing their Type 44 for a while

[@watchreport]

Very cool. Let’s us know if you end up grabbing one and how you like it.

The black dial is more authentic. Go with the black dial.

Would have been nice in a 36mm with drilled lugs.

I built my own field watch for under $75 US with parts from AliExpress. The case is 39.5 mm and has a screw down crown and I opted for the NH38.
For near $300 US I'm going to have to give the watches in the video a big 👎.

[@watchreport]

Well then, that’s it I guess. We should all just order from Aliexpress. 🙄 I think it’s great you built your own watch on the cheap, but not everyone wants to do that. 👍

[@CyberRabid.]

@@watchreport you've missed the point that it's better quality at a fraction of the cost.
Also assembled in America! 😁
