Awake CCT FS Limited Edition

Awake for the French Special Forces of the CCT FS - Compagnie de Commandement et de Transmissions des Forces Spéciales. Limited edition of 100 pieces (50 allocated to members of the CCT FS, 50 available for collectors and military watch enthusiasts).

Initially limited to 50 watches, this collaboration between AWAKE and the CCT FS is the fruit of a project to equip the men and women of this elite Special Forces unit. The partnership is based on shared values of commitment, perseverance and innovation, enabling both companies to break new ground in their respective fields.

With the exceptional agreement of the Company's Command, a second series of 50 is available for military watch enthusiasts and collectors, bringing to 100 the total number of watches produced as part of this special AWAKE series for the CCT FS.

Titanium case

40mm titanium case, light, solid and durable, with a black sandblasted PVD treatment and satin-finish to reduce light reflections as much as possible. The edge of the case is discreetly engraved with the company name: CCT FS. The case is fitted with a screw-down crown, easy to grip and handle, guaranteeing perfect water-resistance to 10 ATM (100m).


Special dial

The fine-grained matte black dial, chosen by CCT FS for sobriety and discretion, is enhanced by applied, raised indexes with brushed finishes to minimize reflections. The "sword point" hands and indexes are coated with green Superluminova, guaranteeing perfect legibility even at night and reminiscent of the night-sights used by the company. The inner bezel is engraved with the company's call sign: «ICI 01 VERT ACTION* » , as well as the limited series number.

* « HERE 01, GO FOR ACTION »

This second numbered series is now available to order, with delivery scheduled for the end of November (production of the 100 watches is under way).

Modified movement

We have chosen to equip our watches with the Miyota 9039 caliber, renowned for its reliability and ease of maintenance, offering a 42-hour power reserve. Particular care has been taken to decorate the oscillating weight. Completely reworked, it has also undergone a black surface treatment and offers top-of-the-range finishes: polished chamfers, alternating bead-blasted and brushed, deep markings that give the whole a highly technical aesthetic. Finally, the CCT FS insignia adorns the center of the watch back.

This AWAKE 01 - CCT FS comes with two straps: a lightweight, durable and extremely comfortable black Biopoly strap, made from our exclusive material that reduces the use of fossil fuels by over 60%. The second strap is a tactical NATO in ultra-resistant canvas.

About CCT FS

For the French special forces deployed in the field, nothing would be possible without the communications systems put in place by the soldiers of the CCT FS, the Special Forces Command and Communications Company.

Created in 2007, the CCT FS's mission is to provide the leaders of a special forces group with the tactical, operational and strategic links needed to command operations.

Equipped with the latest generation of transmissions, it uses computer, radio and satellite systems in particularly difficult conditions, sometimes in hostile environments.

Precision, adaptability, reliability, determination and cool-headedness are the hallmarks of this paratrooper unit of the French Army, which currently has around 100 team members.

Words of Captain Clément, Unit Commander: "For the CCT FS, time is one of the most precious resources whose rigorous management is crucial to the success of operations. We are therefore proud to partner with AWAKE and create this exceptional watch that will accompany my teammates in all their operational commitments."
