Model Three Special Edition - Blue Dial / SS Case
** This watch will be available on the 14th of March at 4pm GMT **
This limited edition timepiece has been meticulously crafted to celebrate British Watchmakers’ Day 2025, featuring a newly designed blue, white, and red dial — a colour scheme that naturally evokes a strong connection to British heritage and institutions.
Staying true to Alkin’s ethos of creating robust, functional tool watches, the Special Edition distills every element down to achieve a simple yet visually balanced design that offers maximum legibility, functionality, and versatility. This refined aesthetic is elevated with the introduction of polished Arabic numerals, markers, and a bold sword-and-arrow handset — marking an evolution in Alkin’s distinctive ‘house style.’ The applied numbers and markers are paired with a brushed sandwich dial, creating a sense of depth that catches the light from every angle. This effect is further enhanced by the circular brushing on the top dial and a vertical brush finish on the lower dial.
The use of sapphire crystal, Super-LumiNova and the Miyota 9039 automatic movement all demonstrates the central alkin commitment to quality and functionality. These firm choices in materials and movements exemplify our unwavering pledge to crafting timepieces of the highest caliber while maintaining an accessible price point.
A ceramic insert is house within the unidirectional rotating bezel, with the numbers and markers being laser etched and then filled with BGW9 Super-LlumiNova.
All versions of the Model Three will ship on a brushed stainless steel bracelet with solid endlinks and a milled clasp. Adjustment links are secured by screw pins and a six stop micro adjustment allows you to achieve a perfect fit.
The Special Edition is limited to 40 pieces.

Customer Reviews
This watch is absolutely stunning. The sandwich dial is beautifully designed and gorgeous when it catches the light. The applied indices are perfect and the lume is outstanding. The only way it could be improved, is by the addition of an on the fly, adjustable clasp.Really nice leather pouch too.
I’m so happy I managed to get one of these and it hasn’t left my wrist, since it arrived.
Great job, Charlie!
What can I say. Disappointed I couldn't get a ticket for the watch makers show as I'd seen this shown online as the SE for the show, but glad there were some of this special edition left. Everything just works so well together. Another stunning Alkin watch
Yet another beautifully crafted watch from Charlie - an amazing addition to both the Alkin brand and my watch collection
This special edition is a fantastic edition to my collection. Everything feels good quality and that blue dial just pops in the sun. My third alkin watch and they all perform very well. Great job Charlie. Look forward to a model 4!
A beautiful watch, in a deep steel case with a solid bezel, looks great on the wrist, with a really clear double dial and easily readable numbers.
A smooth action from the Miyota movement keeps very accurate time.
I love the unique hands and the red-tipped second hand is very striking indeed.
The lume is great in low light, and the offset crown is quite the feature!
Charlie gives a first class service to back up the superb watch he has delivered in this Model Three Special Edition.
