The Arctos “6645-12-194-8642” chronograph was born out of the brand’s contract to supply the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) and NATO with a purpose-built pilot’s chronograph during the early 1980s. The watch was designed to meet stringent military specifications, using the robust Lemania 5100 automatic movement and featuring a bead-blasted case for non-reflective durability and a highly legible black dial — tools meant for real mission use in extreme conditions.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF ARCTOS
The Legacy of Arctos: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
Arctos was founded in 1923 in Pforzheim, Germany, by merchant Philipp Weber and watchmaker Jakob Aeschbach with a mission to produce high-quality wrist and pocket watches using Swiss movements. The brand name, derived from the Greek word for “bear,” symbolized strength and endurance. After suffering wartime losses, the company was rebuilt in 1947 as Arctos-Uhrenfabrik and became known for its durable, military-grade timepieces.
Over the decades, Arctos earned recognition for crafting precision watches used by the German Armed Forces and NATO, combining robust design with Swiss mechanical excellence.
