ArmourLite IsoBrite Squadron Automatic Tritium Watch - BLUE

ArmourLite IsoBrite Squadron Tritium Watch

Some watches run on batteries. Others run on resolve. The ArmourLite IsoBrite Squadron Automatic Tritium Watch is built for those who prefer their gear mechanical, dependable, and unapologetically capable. No charging cables. No digital crutches. Just gears, springs, and the quiet rhythm of a machine that keeps time the old-world way—by moving with you.

Powered by an automatic mechanical movement, the Squadron draws its energy from motion itself. Walk, work, travel, endure—it winds as you do. Pair that with ArmourLite’s legendary IsoBrite tritium illumination, and you’ve got a watch that never sleeps. The glow is constant, steady, and visible in total darkness, whether you’re crossing time zones or holding position until sunrise.

The Squadron’s design leans into its mission-first roots. The dial is clean, bold, and immediately legible. The sapphire crystal stands guard against impacts and abrasions, while the solid case and water resistance ensure this watch isn’t afraid of rough weather or hard use. It’s not delicate, and it doesn’t pretend to be.

This is the watch for people who appreciate craftsmanship you can feel—the subtle weight on the wrist, the smooth sweep of mechanical hands, the reassurance that your timepiece is as self-reliant as you are.

Batteries die. Legends and Craftmanship never do.

For the ultimate protection of the dial, the shatterproof Armourglass crystal can withstand up to 6,000 Vickers, whereas most watch crystals can only withstand about 700. Using the same technology as bulletproof glass, we have achieved a crystal that won’t shatter even when one layer is compromised. This crystal was previously only available in our ArmourLite watches with a stainless steel case.

This 44.5mm Isobrite Squadron Series watch features 16 ultra bright T100 tritium markers that will glow for many decades. A combination of green, ice blue, and orange tritium markers makes it incredibly easy to tell the time in any lighting environment. The 12:00 position is even more noticeable with a photoluminescent glow-in-the-dark triangle with 2 dots.

To ensure uninterrupted service, the watch is powered by a reliable Japanese NH35 mechanical movement with 24 jewels and a date display. The movement features both manual and automatic winding, as well as a power reserve of about 41 hours.

Constructed out of carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate, this lightweight watch weighs in at only 2.7 ounces. The dial is well protected by a scratch resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating.

When your adventure involves water, this watch is ready to accompany you diving down to 200 meters. While in the depths of the sea, the 60-click unidirectional ratcheting diver bezel with a tritium marker will help you keep track of elapsed bottom time.

Key Features

• SWISS TRITIUM ILLUMINATION: ArmourLite watches have tiny glass tubes that are filled with tritium gas and then hermetically sealed. The electrons of the gas continuously react with phosphorescent paint resulting in a radio luminescent light source that glows constantly for several decades. No external power source or charging-by-light is necessary to maintain the glow. The glow is completely self-powered.
• SHATTERPROOF ARMOURGLASS: The watch is protected by shatterproof Armourglass crystal that can withstand up to 6,000 Vickers, whereas most watch crystals can only withstand about 700. Using the same technology as bulletproof glass, we have achieved a crystal that won’t shatter even when one layer is compromised
• JAPANESE AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT: Japanese NH35 mechanical with 24 jewels, a self-winding bidirectional rotor, and a Diashock shock absorber
  
• ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT: The watch features an ultra lightweight and extremely durable carbon fiber reinforced case with a diameter of 43.5mm. The double-gasket push-in crown on the right side of the case is protected by two side shields. For keeping track of elapsed dive time, the case has a unidirectional ratcheting diver bezel.
