The S.O.E. Roadster is a tribute to the brave racecar drivers of the early 1900’s that went on to become spies and saboteurs for the British government during World War 2. Their contributions were massive, and their bravery unmatched. The watch is full of design cues that point to their lives as racers and spies.

This is kind of cool! The S.O.E. Roadster design started out as a digital watch face on the Facer mobile app. This is the first time in the industry that a digital watch face has become a mechanical watch. We are super proud of this fact because Facer is where Trafford Watch Co. got it's start, and we love how it gives us a platform to connect with users who may not have a connection to the traditional watch world. This is where we now run Trafford Labs, a place to test out designs and ideas on smartwatches, and get feedback from fans! If you're a smartwatch user and want to check it out, click here.
Warranty
Every Trafford Watch Co. watch comes with a 2-year limited warranty which covers manufacturing defects.
The warranty does not cover damages that may occur from wear and tear and everyday use, nor does it cover the life of the battery within.
