Virtue: Lex et Ordo (Law and Order)
Enduring Principle: “Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.”
The Arizona 1/2 Goldback celebrates the virtue of Lex et Ordo—Law and Order—by capturing one of the most storied moments in Wild West history: the 1881 gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone. Though the shootout lasted less than a minute, it became a defining symbol of courage, justice, and the challenges of maintaining order in the rugged frontier.
At the center of the design stands a determined law woman, embodying the steadfast spirit of Lex et Ordo. Her posture conveys authority, resolve, and vigilance, while a U.S. Marshal badge—modeled after Virgil Earp’s—rests proudly on her chest, representing the unwavering commitment of those who upheld the law amidst chaos.
The surrounding environment enriches the narrative. The O.K. Corral sign anchors the scene to its historic location, while a Gila monster slithers across the desert floor, a subtle reminder of the ever-present dangers of the Arizona landscape. Desert daisies bloom nearby, a nod to the legendary words of Doc Holliday, “You’re a daisy if you do,” connecting history, humor, and danger in one vivid tableau.
Every detail conveys both the tension and discipline required to maintain law and order. The dusty streets, scattered tumbleweeds, and arid desert flora evoke the harsh conditions of the frontier, while the poised figure of the law woman reflects courage tempered by judgment and accuracy.
Inscribed along the bottom of the note, the guiding principle reads: “Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.” This Arizona Goldback is more than a depiction of history—it is a tribute to the enduring strength, vigilance, and integrity required to uphold Law and Order, a virtue that resonates far beyond the O.K. Corral and continues to inspire today.
"Amazing service and hospitality from the staff at IDC! Jason was so attentive and patient in our search for our ideal watches. He took us through several options, had us try every watch we were interested in, took our information and continued searching for options. A few hours later, we had our watches on hold and ready for pick up! He located a watch that I LOVE, and a unique piece for my husband. We are grateful to have found our new Jeweler for many pieces to come!"
