Our first chronograph, the Kruger, pays tribute to the rangers of the Kruger region in Southern Africa. These men and women work tirelessly to protect and maintain some of the most endangered animals in the world, in some extremely hostile and unforgiving environments. As such, the Kruger is built to handle some serious punishment while not skipping a beat.

The Kruger SE is an alternate version of the model released in early 2022, using the asymmetrical dial layout of the VK67. Instead of numerals, you get bold batons in X1-C3 Swiss Super-LumiNova™ for maximum night legibility. The date is offset between 4h and 5h, and now the model name is shown in red, tying in with the red chrono hand.  High contrast hour and minute hands ensure quick, easy time reading.

A titanium case and bracelet make for an incredibly light wear, with extreme toughness. We’ve also added 1200HV coating to improve scratch resistance. Screw-down crown and case back give the case an impressive 300m water resistance, while a triple gasket pusher system ensures function at depth. The 120-click uni-directional rotating bezel with ceramic bezel insert (5-55 markings), gives the user the ability to measure timings in both accurate (chronograph function) and more casual situations (divers bezel). On the back of the case is a beautifully moulded white rhino, a nod to the massive efforts of our rangers.

Quick-release pins on the bracelet make changing to the seatbelt nylon zulu strap a breeze. Each Kruger will come default in a nylon MOLLE pouch with a velcro-backed rhino patch.
