CNOC x Burton - Blackout
This bespoke Burton Blackout edition has been specially created for members of the Computer Network Operations Cell (CNOC). The design features a custom binary dial
containing an encoded message decipherable only by those familiar with the cypher.
The 0 and 1 dial markers have been rendered in the department’s distinctive purple, with the 8 on the date wheel also highlighted in the same hue as a subtle nod to
the Regiment. Together, these details complete the understated, yet meaningful bespoke elements incorporated into the dial.
On the caseback, the CNOC crest is prominently displayed, accompanied by the inscription “It always seems impossible until it’s done”, engraved to follow the natural curvature of the caseback. Everyone will also have the option to include their own personalised engraving, ensuring that every watch becomes a truly unique timepiece - one that honours the
past while looking confidently toward the future of the CNOC.
Watches will be produced and assembled once the order window closes 31st March 2026 with delivery estimated at 3–5 months from that point.
Please note: due to the use of a screw-down caseback, engraving orientation cannot be guaranteed.
