Helgray Watches out of Montreal Canada has a fairly ambitious project, launching 4 new military themed watches on kickstarter. The watches cetainly have some common DNA across the styles, but they all use unique movements and complications. Helgray is rolling out the Field Officer, a 3 hander with date; the California, with a sub dial for seconds at 6:00; the GMT, which provides a second time zone; and the Skyfighter, a dual register chronograph with date.
