It looks like a homage to the Rolex Viceroy. Why don't they just say it?
It is a homage to 3139, that is the first thing they say.
In their words:
Venturo’s Field Watch #2 is based on the elusive Rolex Oyster Army, Ref. 3139, that was issued in small numbers to the Allies during World War II, and for which production had stopped many decades ago.

Speaking as someone who would dearly like a 3139 at the right price I'm relieved that this effort is unlikely to increase the number of rival bidders.
Or maybe a 4647 .

I wasn’t aware of the historical Rolex so I like the watch for what it is. I like it a lot.
The case size is far too large for this style of watch, and the lume and font are awful. IMHO.

It's a Gruppo. 'Nuff said.
How can they possibly say it's based on the Ref. 3139? There is nothing remotely similar, except maybe the fact it ticks
