The ProTek USMC Automatic PT1212 is a military-grade dive watch that celebrates the United States Marine Corps with bold design elements and durable construction. The dial features a distinctive 6 o’clock USMC reference, while the caseback is embossed with the eagle, globe and anchor emblem.

Housed in a 42 mm carbon-composite case, the watch offers a balance of strength and lightweight comfort. It is powered by a dependable Seiko 24-jewel automatic movement, delivering reliable timekeeping without the need for a battery.

The dual 12/24-hour dial is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal and features ProGlo self-powered luminous markers for constant visibility in low-light and dark conditions. Despite its rugged 300-meter rating, the watch remains comfortable enough for everyday wear.

Why We Love It

Automatic movement paired with long-lasting luminous markers delivers reliable, battery-free performance.
