About this entry
80% of key specs known. Missing: movement, weight, hardening.
The bronze version of the 40mm Legacy (see Legacy Steel), sold as numbered runs with a store listing per colourway: Royal Fume, Midnight Grey and Green Fume ("Only 75 timepieces in each color option", listings from November 2020) and Raven ("Only 50 timepieces will be available", April 2022). Spec table (the same on every listing): "MD-1 (A fully assembled and tested automatic from Maryland)", "Bronze CuSn8, brushed with polished edges", 40mm, 20mm lugs, 48mm lug-to-lug, "Height: 13.6mm" (not said whether it includes the crystal), "Swiss Super Luminova Old Rhodium", vertically brushed sandwich dial, light brown Horween leather strap tapered to 18mm with a CuSn8 bronze buckle, sapphire display caseback, double-domed sapphire with AR coating, 200m, dual screw-down crowns with lume and an "Internal Rotating Bi-Directional Bezel". No bracelet is offered. Movement: the MD-1 is made by Maryland Watch Works in Hagerstown, MD; Watch Clicker's Legacy review calls it "a clone of the ETA 2824" without naming the base caliber, so only the type is recorded, and says it is regulated to +/-8 s/day with a custom rotor for the Legacy line (the review covers the steel three-hander and mentions the bronze option). All four listings were sold out on 2026-10-25. Weight isn't published.
