March LA.B – JC1 4th Hussard Limited edition

Posted on by

Swiss watch brand March LA.B introduces a limited edition timepiece from their JC 1 series to honour the legendary 4th Hussard regiment of French Army. The 4th Hussard regiment took part in several legendary battles of the Napoleonic era such as Austerlitz and Friedland.

The Hussards were light cavalrymen – the eyes, ears and egos of Napoleon’s army. Tactically, they were used as scouts armed with pistols and swords. They had their own code of honor – one of reckless courage that bordered on a death wish.
