We had the privilege of interviewing Don Cochrane about Vertex and the Dirty Dozen watches. Don is the great-grandson of Claude Lyons, who started Vertex Watches all the way back in 1912. Don wanted to restart the family business and continue the watchmaking legacy left by his great-grandfather.

We discussed the Vertex M100a which is a super high-quality field watch, we reviewed it here -    • This Luxury Field Watch is Amazing! - Vert...  

We also looked at the other models - MP45 and M60 and we were genuinely impressed by the quality and presentation of the watches! Vertex seems like a really good value-for-money British watch brand, so stay tuned for our review of the M60.
