TYPE 1 MIL SPEC
TYPE 1 MIL SPEC
A piece of history that in some respect has fallen into obscurity, the TYPE 1 was the first of its kind from BENRUS after successfully landing the first Vietnam U.S. military watch contract. With experience gained through the beginning of the Vietnam War and the increasing use of covert and specialized military teams such as, the US Navy UDT/SEALs, US Navy EOD, US Navy Divers, Army Rangers, Green Berets, and CIA operatives, the Department of Defense determined that these specialists needed a more robust dive watch that would be purpose-built to meet the highest standards of the military and its operatives.
