457 is more than a number in a history book. It represents 457 members of the UK Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice—457 individual lives and legacies, bound forever by their service in Afghanistan.

To mark the 25th Anniversary of Operation Herrick, 457 timepieces will be crafted in 2027 in partnership with Connect Through Service, artist Kev Wills MBE, and Nomadic Watches.

Produced to coincide with this milestone, each watch in the edition is individually dedicated to one of the 457 UK service personnel lost during the conflict in Afghanistan—a quiet, lasting tribute carried forward day by day.

These timepieces will be made available for sale on December 1st, 2026. Only 457 watches of this design will ever be made.

For every watch created, £457 is donated directly to Walking With The Wounded and Scotty’s - The Military Bereavement Charity, providing vital, ongoing support for our veterans and military families for generations to come.

Through this timepiece, every second becomes an act of remembrance—ensuring the 457 who served and died as a result of UK operations in Afghanistan are never forgotten.
