The Benrus DTU-2A/P watch is a modernized take on a classic timepiece model that stays true to the heritage of the brand as well as military specifications. The watch is inspired by a 1964 classic and is constructed with a 34mm 316L stainless steel case that has been treated to a sandblasted finish as well as a double-domed sapphire crystal to support clear visuals at all times. The watch is powered by a Swiss-made ETA 2671 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve to ensure it's ready to last, while the BW G9 Super-LumiNova enhances legibility day and night.
The Benrus DTU-2A/P watch is rounded out with 100-meters of water resistance and is engraved with military-inspired markings with a rugged leather strap to boot.
