British WWII ATP Service Watch

This stunning Ailager® branded British A.T.P. (Army Trade Pattern) watch from Reddick Militaria recreates the crisp, utilitarian look of wartime issue pieces. The silver dial is marked A.T.P. with a period-style serial number, and the small-seconds register at 6 o’clock provides easy, precise reading. Luminous (glow-in-the-dark) hands and hour markers enhance low-light visibility, while a dual quartz, battery-operated movement delivers modern reliability. The crown pulls out to set the time and features a full hacking function to stop the seconds for accurate synchronization.

Finished with an adjustable green NATO strap for secure field wear, the watch is rated to 3 ATM—splash and rain resistant for daily use (not for showering, swimming, or diving). The case back is cleanly stamped A.T.P. 132777 for an authentic service look. Each watch arrives in an Ailager® silver presentation box with a slide-out drawer and black felt lining, ready to gift to reenactors, collectors, and enthusiasts.

The British A.T.P. specification defined robust, legible wristwatches procured for Army service in WWII. Approximately 130,000 were produced by 17 Swiss manufacturers, making them common on the wrists of soldiers across the Commonwealth. The A.T.P. pattern directly paved the way for the post-war W.W.W. standard—the legendary “Dirty Dozen.” This reproduction preserves the hallmark cues of the original pattern while adding the accuracy and convenience of a modern quartz movement.

From the serial-marked dial to the stamped case back, this A.T.P. service watch captures the no-nonsense charm of Britain’s wartime timepieces—now with modern accuracy and everyday practicality. It’s an ideal finishing touch for a WWII impression and a characterful daily wearer for anyone who appreciates vintage military design.
