Bohemia Interactive's military sandbox simulator, released for Windows in September 2013 and set on the Aegean islands of Altis and Stratis in a near-future NATO-CSAT conflict. The Czech studio's Real Virtuality engine trademark, large open terrain, authentic ballistics and a deep equipment simulation, extends to the smallest gear: the watch is a wearable inventory item players check to coordinate operations against the day-night cycle.

Watches
- Fortis B-42 Marinemaster
- Arma 3's wearable watch item, the raid-planning clock of the equipment simulation, is modeled on the Fortis B-42 Marinemaster: Bohemia Interactive designer Karel Mořický named the model directly in a 2024 retrospective of the studio's in-game watches ("Arma 3 returned back to civilian model - Fortis B-42 Marinemaster"), speculating the civilian diver suited the game's post-apocalyptic RPG origins. The in-game model has a legible dive-bezel dial. (Karel Mořický, Armed Assault Wiki)
- Police Navy X
- Nikos Panagopoulos, the FIA arms fixer of the East Wind campaign, wears a yellow-gold chronograph on a gold H-link bracelet, and Bohemia Interactive designer Karel Mořický named its source in his 2024 retrospective of the studio's watches: "Nikos, infamous guerilla leader, sports golden Police Navy X." The in-game dial keeps the Navy X layout, orange Arabic numerals at 10, 2, 8 and 4, three registers and a tachymeter ring inside a black notched bezel, but Police sold the Navy X in rose-gold-coated or carbon-coated steel on a rubber strap, so the game's yellow-gold case and bracelet match no catalogued execution. A developer-stated design source rather than a licensed placement; Police is not credited in the game. (Karel Mořický)
- Alpina Extreme Tourbillon
- Altis's civilians wear a steel cushion-cased watch with six bezel screws, a regulator hour sub-dial at 10, a tourbillon aperture at 6 and a red-tipped minute hand, which Karel Mořický's retrospective names as the Alpina Extreme Tourbillon: "random civilians wear Alpina Extreme Tourbillon - a surprisingly premium choice in war-torn Altis!" The model reproduces the Extreme Tourbillon Regulator Manufacture's case and dial architecture in plain steel on a textured link bracelet, where Alpina built the watch only in titanium or pink gold on rubber, in editions of eighteen, so no reference is claimed. A developer-stated design source rather than a licensed placement; no wearer applies beyond the ambient civilian models. (Karel Mořický)
