A few weeks ago I was loaned two watches from Vertex, a relatively modern British watch manufacturer. One of which the M100A, is the latest incarnation of their sequel to the Dirty Dozen watch in their history. To have a good comparison I borrowed another Dirty Dozen remake, the much less expesive A10 by Vaer, an American company. While the M100A and the A10 fight it out I threw in another Vertex watch, the incredibly rare MP45 Heritage Edition as a wild card.
...The result might surprise you.

Thanks for checking out my next review video. I'm Matt and I am the owner and found of Under The Cuff. I review watches, design and sell watch straps and accessories, and host watch chat streams on IG. Although I have acquired a lovely new SHURE mic, I'm not sure I've got it tuned properly, so apologies if its a bit muffled.

    The Vertex M100 is a beautiful piece. I took a gamble on one several years ago and was not disappointed. It's been my go-to watch for a few years now, with much more expensive pieces collecting dust.

    That MP45 is incredibly beautiful. Surprisingly one can’t find more videos on YT about it. Thank you for reviewing it

    I recently got a Hamilton Khaki Field Auto. I’ve had it for a couple weeks and I love it. It runs less than -1 second slow per day when I wear it, and on the days I don’t wear it and it sits dial up in my watch box, it’s been about -2 seconds per day. I’m very happy with it.

    I have my late father's Vertex Dirty Dozen circa 1944, used it regularly until about 11yrs ago and although now in a display case it's wound every day and is still keeping good time.

    I took it to a local watch repairer recently intending to have it serviced but after the consideration of the dangers of the radium on the face and hands and the work involved I've decided to leave things as they are and keep it in the display case unwound. I have had offers to sell it but it is of great sentimental value not only to me but also to my grandson who admires not only for it's looks but also it's history. Thank you for your reply.

    The M100 is by far the best modern dirty dozen

    I have the Vertex MP45 automatic limited (200) edition and the Vertex M100 bronze 75 limited edition watches. I absolutely love them and think they are the best modern interpretations of the original WWII dirty dozen to be reproduced by any of the original watch companies. Vertex puts companies like Bremont to shame for wonderful designs and value for money……

    Totally agree! Just the price point is abit much for some (if you do not compare it with the Bremont). I hope it can be under a grand.

    I find the Vertex M100A the best most modern version of a dirty doesn't watch. I am surprised nobody ever mentions one more original Dirty Dozen manufacturer that's still making a very authentic version of the Dirty Dozen watch today. And that's the Timor WWW. It has a heritage and certainly looks the part. And the price point is fairly reasonable also. I recommend checking them out if you haven't.

    I have the Timor WWW and am very pleased with it. It's almost identical to the 1940s original, made in Switzerland with a modern hand-wound movement and sapphire crystal - all at substantially less than half the price of the Vertex.

    CWC 72 Mellor from Silvermans London….£499.00. A fabulous watch, mine is incredibly accurate, had it for nearly two years…..Go and look.

    Love a good CWC! I think the Vertex probably needs to be in a separate category of Luxury military field watch because it is so well made and finished and because of the cost. In reality it would be way above the spec necessary for a military piece.

    You really should have contacted Timor and included the Timor Heritage field. I think Timor did a much better job with their rendition having the same dimensions as the original and offering a manual wind movement as well as an automatic and for a much better price than the Vertex, and of course Vaer no longer offers the A10.
