Vintage Edition

British luxury watchmaker William Wood Watches is proud to announce the launch of its latest model, the Vintage Triumph, which will debut at the Windup watch fair in New York from October 17 to 19, 2025.

Founder Jonny Garrett will be present throughout the event to meet with the media, collectors, and enthusiasts, marking another important milestone for the brand as it continues to combine heritage, craftsmanship, and ambition.

A timeless tribute in gold

Priced at £2,995, the Vintage Triumph is a limited edition chronograph watch inspired by vintage style and celebrating William Wood’s philosophy of transforming the history of firefighting into modern luxury. Each piece features a crown made from a 100-year-old British brass firefighter’s helmet, connecting each wearer to a century of bravery and service.

The aged champagne-colored diamond-cut dial, polished gold numerals, and gold bezel with black indices embody understated elegance. Beneath its sophisticated surface, the Swiss-made Sellita SW510 chronograph movement ensures precise timekeeping with a 48-hour power reserve, 27 jewels, and a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour.

A design rooted in the heritage of firefighters

“Made from recycled materials”

The dial design pays tribute to the heritage of firefighters through subtle yet powerful details : subdials inspired by fire pump gauges, a chronograph hand inspired by a vintage alarm bell and a firefighter’s axe, and a seconds track reflecting the checkered markings on British fire trucks. Blue-tinted sapphire crystal, in tribute to William Wood’s 25 years of service with the BlueWatch in Newcastle & Gateshead.

Each Vintage Triumph is beautifully presented in a genuine black and gold Italian leather fire alarm box, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and symbolism.

FEATURES :

  • Case dimensions : The case measures 41 mm in diameter, with a thickness of 16 mm (16.5 mm with the glass) and a lug width of 20 mm. It houses a chronograph movement inside and has brass push buttons on the side of the case.
  • Distance between lugs : The distance between the lugs is 49.5 mm.
  • Case finish : The case is gold-plated, with brushed sides and lugs. The high-quality gold plating gives it a superb vintage look. The engravings on the case back, such as the limited edition number and authenticity marks, are laser-etched.
  • Movement specifications : Swiss-made Sellita Group SW510 chronograph movement with a 48-hour power reserve, 27 jewels, and 28,800 vibrations per hour.
  • Dial : Vintage champagne gold finish with cut-out hour markers and subdials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock. The disc at 3 o’clock measures the start/stop of the chronograph operated by the brass buttons, while the disc at 9 o’clock corresponds to the seconds hand. A date window at 6 o’clock is operated by the watch crown. The dial and hands are curved, creating a subtle optical illusion when viewed through the glass. Beneath the dial is a vintage Super-LumiNova disc that matches the dial. The numbered hour markers and hands are finished with a gold polish, as befits a vintage watch.
  • Dial design : Printed around the edge of the dial, a seconds scale replicates the checkerboard markings that adorn the sides of British fire trucks. The front of the chronograph hand is inspired by the chime of a vintage fire bell, while the back represents the head of a fireman’s axe. The subdials are inspired by the pressure gauges on fire pumps when a fire hose valve is opened. The iconic logo, a vintage firefighter’s helmet, is affixed to the dial with micro-level details.
  • Crystal : The material used for the glass is sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. The glass is completely scratch-resistant and has a slightly curved finish.
  • Bracelet dimensions : Fire hose and firefighter equipment bracelets fit wrists measuring between 5.5 and 9.5 inches.
  • Bracelet finish : The entire range of watch bracelets has a lug width of 20 mm, which fits all watch collections. The fire hose and firefighter equipment straps feature a silicone back stamped with “made from recovered materials” and “William Wood.” All straps are equipped with quick-release levers that allow you to add and remove any of the straps in seconds without the need for additional tools.
  • Water resistance : 100 m / 10 ATM
  • International warranty : 3 years on all watches with worldwide support from three repair centers based in the UK, US, and Asia, offering international assistance if needed.
  • Price: £2,995.00 GBP

Who is William Wood?

William Wood was the name of our founder’s late grandfather. He served in the British fire service for 25 years, receiving awards for his acts of bravery. He was stationed at Pilgrim Street for the Newcastle and Gateshead Fire Brigade, as part of the blue guard.

1982 – Grandfather and hero

William retired from the fire department in 1982, leaving a lasting impression on his colleagues and his grandson Jonny. His influence and legacy live on today in our unique watches.

2017 – The match was lit

In 2017, CEO Jonny Garrett founded William Wood Watches. His vision was to create beautifully crafted watches made from firefighting equipment, paying tribute to his late grandfather, firefighters, and first responders around the world.
