Sangin Instruments Atlas V3

A former Reconnaissance Marine turned firefighter. He was not on duty. He watched the multi vehicle accident happen in real time at a traffic light as he was getting off shift, pulled over, and ran to help. He stayed with the patients so that on their worst day, someone was there telling them everything was going to be okay. His fellow firefighters arrived minutes later and got to work, and only after the scene was secure, almost 45 minutes on, did he take this picture. "Being a first responder doesn't just happen on shift. It's an everyday responsibility." He was raised being taught that we all have a duty to help. The watch is a Sangin Instruments Atlas V3, chosen through his Recon background and brothers in MARSOC. As he puts it, "It works when I work."

Intel Report

Sangin Atlas Sangin Instruments was founded in 2016 by Jacob Servantes, a former Marine Raider, and the company is named for Sangin in Afghanistan's Helmand province, where he served. The Southern California brand was built with one stated purpose, watches meant to survive military and field use, and Watches of Espionage has called it the Raider Rolex for the following it earned inside the special operations community. The Atlas is the brand's field watch, a 42mm automatic, and Sangin runs a distinctive access program around its catalog: certain bezel colors are reserved for those who have completed a special operations selection course, with other colors set aside for first responders and law enforcement. The submitter's path, Reconnaissance Marine to firefighter, runs straight through the middle of that customer base, and he said it himself: coming from his Recon background, with brothers in MARSOC, the watch was a no brainer. His summary beats any ad copy. It works when he works.
