DOXA 565 Field Watch

DOXA's tool watches, particularly of the dive variety, have gained a following among collectors in recent years. We here at Analog/Shift have certainly carried the torch for DOXA's dive watches, and over the years have stocked our inventory (and shamelessly collected for ourselves) exceptional examples of their Sub 300s from the 1960s and 1970s. But while it's DOXA's dive watches that get the most attention, our love for the brand encompasses their whole range of products, rich with impressive timepieces dating to the company's founding.

In 1889, Georges Ducommun founded DOXA in that horological hotbed, Le Locle. From the inception of the company, its main stock in trade was dress watches. Their expertly-engineered pocket watches earned a place of distinction with luxury consumers in the early 1900s, and in 1906 DOXA earned a Gold Medal at the International Exhibition in Milan.

Throughout the 20th Century, DOXA introduced a wide variety of timepieces. They ranged from consumer grade, time-only watches to ornate ladies cocktail pieces, alarm clocks, precision cockpit instruments (including the first 8-day movement developed for use in automobiles), and military-issued wristwatches.

This particular piece is a fantastic representation of the heritage field watch designs that emerged mid-century. A Reference 565, inspired by the Patek 565 Calatrava, this piece features a unique block-like case with the lugs sprouting straight from the midcase.

This piece was designed to withstand everything --- it flaunts waterproofing, shock resistance, and anti-magnetic technology. In all cases, the goal was to create a watch that was built to stand the test of time. The result? A lovely classic piece that you need in your collection.
